Addiction

Whoever decides to run a salsa night sometime in the middle of the Christmas/New Year period would have punters hammering on the door. It's a bit shocking how dependent I am on it, particularly at this time of year: by the 29th I was bored, lethargic and irritable. Ordinary exercise helps a bit, so I did 20 miles cycling (in the torrential rain) on Friday, but it was the prospect of some salsa on Tuesday night that really lifted my mood. There were only four of us when we got there, but as that was two males and two females it was fine. I was crap after nearly a fortnight off but I felt so much better afterwards.
