Thanks to Cindy Jones and Victoria Michael, I finally got to go to what might be one of my favorite dance parties in the city – because this one benefits the ballet. Last year, I was dancing on the Miss America stage, this year, the action was on the dance floor at the French Embassy. 
I had a particularly wonderful time because I saw old friends, met some new people (including dancers from the Redskins and Ravens cheerleading teams and
Septime Webre!) and enjoyed the performances of the
Washington ballet dancers. The

ballet happens to be holding auditions today. I’m not ready 😉
