what did the pilgrims do? is my question. when they went out dancing in a very very smoky bar, they didn’t have a shower to come home to, did they?
i’m just wondering. the pilgrims. sleeping with their hair smelling like smoke. not pleasant.
i did, indeed, go dancing, and it was SO MUCH FUN. i love to dance. it’s been way too long since i’ve done it.
the only problem was that i was wearing a stretchy skirt i bought not that long ago, and it has an elastic waistband, and i’ve lost a little weight since i bought it and it kept sliding down.
most of the men (all of them?) in the bar wouldn’t have cared if it had fallen off, but i felt a little self-conscious about it.
randy was worried that nobody else would be dancing, because he didn’t want to stand out. but finally a good song came on (i can’t tell if it’s a good song or not, but he always seems to know), so we danced, even though there were only a couple other people on the dance floor.
and so, mr. “i don’t want anybody to notice me” asked me if i’d like to dance together or separately, and i said i didn’t care, and all of a sudden he was twirling me around and around, and we were dancing just like fred and ginger, and i thought, “is this being inconspicuous?” i didn’t care; like i said, nobody would have cared if all my clothes fell off at any point. it was just SO MUCH FUN, the dancing.
there was a girl there who seemed to be a stripper. she had long blonde hair, lots of makeup, and wore a tiny little midriff top with little straps wrapping around her exposed stomach, and very lowrider pants. randy claimed that “that’s how people dress,” but i think only strippers dress like that. but on the other hand, if she WAS a stripper, wouldn’t she be out stripping, instead of dancing?
randy suggested that she could actually be a man, but i don’t think she was a man. she looked like a woman. a stripper. sometimes when she danced she was a little out of control, and i tried to keep a safe distance so she wouldn’t run into me.
it was, indeed, very smoky, so i had to take a shower when i got home. what did people do before showers? i guess i could have taken a bath, but it seems that would have taken such a long time, all the filling of the tub and everything. it’s very nice to be clean and not reeking of smoke.
whew, i’m tired. it’s way way WAY past my bedtime, and i’ll have to sleep til at least 10 to get my eight hours. i sincerely doubt this will be possible. but you never know.
easter, it’s here already. it’s pretty much a non-holiday for me. i did buy another Cadbury Creme Egg today; i realized it was only the second one i’ve eaten this entire holiday season, which i believe started the day after valentine’s day. are there any chocolate candy holidays looming on the horizon? memorial day isn’t big on holiday chocolates, nor is the 4th of july. really, when you think about it, there’s nothing till HALLOWEEN, which is unimaginably far away.
but that’s ok by me, because many people have been assuring me that SPRING IS HAPPENING THIS WEEK. it’s going to be in the HIGH 60’S in just a couple of days. which means i’ll be able to quit wearing my winter coats, and life will indeed be darn close to perfect.
whew, i’m tired.
ok then,
grace wishing you a happy easter and a lovely church-easter bonnet-chocolate egg day.
