12/31/2004: "Flamenco love in the air?"

As of today, the most popular answer in my latest poll (what is your flamenco new year's resolution?) indicates that flamencos are more interested in finding a flamenco-loving boyfriend/girlfriend than practicing regularly and losing weight:

31.2% Find a bf/gf who likes flamenco too
18.7% Practice regularly
18.7% Lose weight to fit into my costume
12.5% Save up for a trip to Spain

I'm a little surprised by these results, but it probably has to do with the time of the year. I read in today's Washington Post:

This is what Kristin Kelly, Match.com's vice president of love, calls the "New Year's resolution phenomenon," when many singles use the turn of the calendar as a chance to turn around their love lives. It starts Dec. 26...

So don't take the poll results too seriously. At any other time of the year (except maybe Valentine's Day) I'm pretty sure we DC flamencos are more interested elevating el Arte than finding that special someone to share in our obsession.
