Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm still salty that the criticism of someone who can't do ballroom is "technique" but when someone can't do hiphop it's "get into it." No, that's also technique!

Because books.

Aw, YaYa and Ricky were delightful!

All of a sudden, I'm wondering how the duets in the finale are going to go, and if they are going to have Virgil and Jim (or Derek?) do a duet, and what that will look like....

Oh wait, I forgot it's not necessarily going to be two boys and two girls.

Also, I can't imagine Megz actually has to work on core strength. What she does with her body, sure, but that six-pack looks pretty strong!

I can see Nigel's comment about flexibility, though. Some of her extensions needed work.

Absolutely, and the stuff about her shoulders, too -- I just don't think it's about core strength.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Mostly I just feel bad for her being assigned that dance. It's a bad one for most people, but with her it became all about the training.

Yes.

On a non dance note:sad that great British bake off is currently on in the UK (jars keeps posting photos of things she's baking to go with watch parties!) but it's not on pbs. Boo.
