I went dancing Saturday night! Sean (male creature) had 2 free tickets to see DJ Irene at a club Saturday night. We had such a good time. We started talking to a couple that was in line behind us, and we ended up hanging out together inside. Sean ran into a friend from school, and I got to meet her. We hung out for a while at first, then danced for a couple of hours. At first, there weren’t a lot of people dancing, and I was too shy and self conscious to dance. We did start dancing later on though and it was so much fun. WHile we were dancing, I noticed that maybe 1 in 10 people were dancing, and everyone else was standing near the bar, watching the people who were dancing. I guess they didn’t have anyone to dance with, or were too self conscious, or something. I was just happy that I wasn’t afraid to dance anymore and that I had someone I liked to dance with. I don’t dance with people I don’t know – I’m not comfortable with people I don’t know touching me. The only sad thing is that at 1:00 we were too tired to stay, even though DJ Irene hadn’t come on yet. We still had a great time, even if we didn’t get to see her.
Watching people while standing line was way more entertaining than watching people at the bar. There were some very effeminate men out front, and they were having such a good time. My favorite guy had a silver sequined wrap that he would tie around his hips like a skirt, then throw it over his shoulders, then wrap around his head. He knew how to work his accessories. Then another guy was the unofficial traffic director. The only thing he was missing was a pair of gloves and a whistle.
Some of my favorite songs were playing last night, and I’ll dance to them at home, but I really let go and just danced all out last night. It was great to hear songs I like and dance with the man I love. I can’t wait to go again.
The only bad part was coming home – my feet were killing me and I smelled like smoke and alcohol. I soaked (fell asleep) in a hot bath for about 30 minutes, and when I got out (woke up) the water was almost black. I know I was clean when I left the house!
Anyway, I definitely feel like I am working towards my goal, and I am proud of myself for going out and getting on the dance floor.
