Today, when discussing my cousin's upcoming wedding, my grandmother again tried to pester me into taking dancing lessons (ballroom dancing and line dancing). I do not dance. This is only the latest in a number of attempts that she had made over the years, and I have resisted every one of them. But then today she made it interesting. She said that there is now a standing offer on the table: She offered me $1000 to take the lessons (which she would also pay for).
But I still don't want to take the lessons, they just don't interest me. Plus, I don't dance. But....maybe if she upped the offer to $2000..... Then I could buy the new iMac that I'm coveting. I don't feel guilty about that because they have more money than they know what to do with. |

i can understand the resistance to line dancing, as it is absurd. but that's your reason for refusing to learn ballroom dancing?
ok, TK, i'm gonna say this once, and then i'll shut up. take the offer. dance lessons suck. i can't pretend that they don't. at least you're not in jr. high and all awkward. ...but girls like it when a guy can dance, even angry leftist girls, sometimes. you could counteroffer, but that looks kind of bad. so i say, take the deal.
