What was the best dance you've ever had?
Prom night with your sweetie many moons ago? A riveting DDR tournament with your best friend at Otakon? Out clubbing then some strange man dancing with you and slipping you hundred dollar bills even after you repeatedly told him you weren't gay?

My all time best dance was at Bourbon Street Station - A Jacksonville Club with 5 rooms (not including the bathrooms). Only the two large ones were filled that night and my friends and I traveled between the two. Anywhoo, we find ourselves in a large group of ladies (all of us and collected others together) and the floor is packed with your bump-it and grind-it music. And I get stuck with this short kid from south carolina who is as pale as... me? So... We're dancing and neither of us can dance with him and after he keeps trying to touch me, I just wander back to the center of my girls and the random dudes that keep creeping up. And then this happy song came on and I saw *the* guy for me. He was beautiful: Long dreads, stupid sunglasses. He came through a huge crowd of people and we started... I guess shoulder dancing? Bouncing? But anyway, he said something silly like "girl, you know how to do it" and then we bounce-danced some (I'm sure there's a technical term for this--note, I am not talking about 'grinding'), he twirled me in circles some, and we did some-sort of version of the tango. We shared some random thoughts with one another. It was soon the last song of the night and he said "my name is Anton" and put his business card in between my bra strap and shoulder. I laughed. Best. Dance. Ever.
