Last weekend
Oct. 9th, 2006 12:12 pmPeers was fun, I danced a bit, flirted a lot with several cute young men. Turned down several dances, (sorry guys), but I think I was tired more due to lack or food that day vs the late hour. (Sorry, no longer a night owl when I have to be at work by 8 every day), but I finally perked up a bit after chugging a Mountain Dew and sampling a couple of meatballs with my fingers (they served them late, no eating utensils available). I had offered to volunteer to work at the door, but they didn't see my name on the list, although I found out that they overlooked it, but my friend got me in free so all is well. The only thing I missed was that everyone seemed to be taken for the midnight Congress of Vienna, so I moved closed to the band and soaked in the music. I really must buy their cd one of these days, but I didn't see any for sale there.
Ah well, I've already promised one guy I'll be at the next Palo Alto FNW for Halloween, so I'm actually looking forward to it. The plan is to actually practice rotary waltz so I don't get so damned dizzy that it detracts from the fun of the waltz! And I really need a refresher in Cross Step Mixer as well as Congress, I think its been at least a year since I've done either....
DANCING THROUGH LIFE (WICKED SOUNDTRACK)
The trouble with school is
They always try to teach the wrong lesson
Believe me, I've been kicked out
Of enough of them to know
They want you to become less callow
Less shallow
But I say: why invite stress in?
Stop studying strife
And learn to live "the unexamined life":
Dancing through life
Skimming the surface
Gliding where turf is smooth
Life's more painless
For the brainless
Why think too hard?
When it's so soothing
Dancing through life
No need to tough it
When you can sluff it off as I do
Nothing matters
But knowing nothing matters
It's just life
So keep dancing through
Dancing through life
Swaying and sweeping
And always keeping cool
Life is fraught-less
When you're thoughtless
Those who don't try
Never look foolish
Dancing through life
Mindless and careless
Make sure you're where less
Trouble is rife
Woes are fleeting
Blows are glancing
When you're dancing
Through life:
.....Dancing through life
Down at the Ozdust
If only because dust
Is what we come to!
And the strange thing:
Your life could end up changing
While you're dancing
Through!
