(excerpted unedited from an online conversation I had tonight. this is my spontaneous answer.)
i've liked dance (in general, not just ballroom) for years
i love music...
the expression in it means a lot to me
uh..
when i first tried ballroom, in social lessons, somehow i got hooked
and i'd come home thinking, nothing makes me happier than this, wow
and i like the interactive part of dancing with a partner
experiencing the music together
and i guess there's always the fact that, well, i get to dance with guys, haha
as for the competitive part
i guess mainly
i want to have fun
but it also motivates me to look good while dancing (ie. technique)
and if you dance really well, it feels good. the flow and connection and the like
being in sync with the music

I love
falling in love with a new song at first listen
a good hair straightener
long dangling earrings
thursday afternoon with the whole weekend ahead
massages
graphics, designs, and interfaces that are pretty, or slick, or creative
when i successfully follow a guy leading me through a step i don't actually know
salsa parties at Take the Lead
bedgasm (definition 1)
foosball games at Dow Jones. there's nothing like them.
meeting awesome friendly people
shoe shopping
fuzzy socks
cuddling
laughing
long deep conversations
communicating with real people on twitter
the muscle burns after rock climbing
for that matter, climbing a route i didn't think i'd make it through
not waking up to too-early alarms
interesting photography
geeky jokes
bathing suit shopping
chick flicks/romantic comedies
big sweatpants
hugs
pretty fonts
gorgeous weather (warm, sunny, fresh...)
writing a good blog post
great smiles
the view of the city (Philly) at night
the programmer's moment of glory (when you find that key to fixing everything after hours of deep debugging and reworking)
receiving text messages that make me smile or laugh
plaid flannel pajama pants
taking pictures
dancing
