[Callers] Re: New (ridiculous) dance

Hello all, Sometimes I write in to check if a dance I've penned has already been written; but this time I'm sure that it hasn't. I was inspired by the news of the national coin shortage ( https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/pandemic-leads-national-coin-shortage-…) to put together a dance called "The Laundromat Needs Quarters" full of quarter turns and agitated motion. Note, this is not a dance that I think should be called, it's a joke dance and they have very limited utility. But I miss the extended contra community and wanted to share as a reminder that our dance community is still out there, and we will celebrate and dance in person again someday.
