I'm especially interested in the major balls. I wanna see the Prez-Elect do some Chicago Steppin' with Michelle. Chicago is home to the steppers!

1. Chicago steppin! I wonder how he will dance with Michelle.

My husband was embarrassed dancing with me at our wedding because everyone was watching, you don't want to make a fool of yourself.

3. He needs to keep it real and get funky with it.
:P I know he and Michelle hit a couple of steppers hangouts in Chi-town. I saw Michelle on Ellen doing the old school wop. LOL. But I bet you they do a little mild Waltz just so the people who can't really dance up in there can keep up. :evilgrin:

4. A mild waltz! I don't think I know how to do one real dance= except break dance

I am in my early 30's so I grew up with break dancing in the 80's. My brother and I would get out our little cardboard mat and do some stuff on that. Looking back, we must have looked nuts.

7. LOL! We were two bored kids in a CT suburb. I'm not sure we did all that well.
Rap was big in our neighborhood in 1983-85. So we just breakdanced and thought we were cool.

2. They have so many to go to they probably won't dance a complete
song at any of them. LOL!

5. I heard they're going to like TEN balls.
Michelle and Barack are gonna be like this on the 21st: :hangover: :hangover: I hope they get a chance to really spend some time at the CIC ball, though. I guess all of the official balls will be at the Convention Center.

9. Cool. I happen to have HBO, too!
I'll be glued to the teevee since I can't go to D.C. I don't think I would want to go anyway. It's gonna be friggin wall to wall there that preceding weekend until at least the day after.
