Long foreplay

Nah. Not writing about the real thing, though I think one day, I will write a post about long foreplay.

This year, the Chinese Department got the real lion dance troupe to usher in the CNY. So they made a lot of noise and the kids made a big hoo ha about it. I thought the whole hall was going to come down when the doll with the big head started throwing sweets to the kids who were enthusiastically clambering over one another so they could have those sweets. Kids are actually easy to pacify.

Anywayz, the point I wanted to make was... the lion was up on stage, being coy about climbing up an inclined bench to set itself on top of the table. It was hesitating, running around, taking one step up the bench, one step down, dancing around the stage, looking at the audience, flirting with the audience.. and I was at the back of the hall, seated, waiting for the lion to finally get up the inclined bench, I was thinking... What a long long foreplay :)
