Just Dance
8:58 AM
When I was younger, we had stake dances (a youth dance for the church) twice every month. From the time I was 14-17, these dances were the highlight of my 2nd and 4th Saturdays. (Though, I'm not sure why I went most of the time. I usually came home crushed about something some boy did. Psh. Boys.) I haven't been to a dance since New Year's Eve 2008. I remember that I really liked them, even with the stupid boys.
Tonight is the Valentines Dance. I'm actually really excited to go. I've got a group of girls I'm going with and it should be a really good time.
However... I have a cold. It's not crippling, but I sure can't breath. I've been taking every little step I can to clear it up by tonight. I don't feel I'm having much luck. I'm sure I could tough it out, but what guy wants to dance with a sniffling, stuffy, breathes-through-her-mouth girl? I don't want to leave that impression! And it's not like I can tell them I have a cold! The word will spread like the viral infection I'm likely to spread to a few people. "Don't dance with THAT girl if you don't want to get sick!" I'm in a pickle.
Speaking of pickles, my dad bought some last night. WHEW! They cleared my sinuses! I would so take a jar of pickles with me to the dance, but I don't want to risk two guys having THIS conversation. "So, was she cute?" "She smelled like pickles!" "OH! You were dancing with pickle-girl? Sorry dude. I could have warned you." No thank you. I do not much want to be pickle-girl!
So, I'm crossing my fingers, hoping against hope that the cold will diminish before 8pm tonight. I think I'm going to go and drain my sinuses again. (Have you guys ever used a Neti Pot? SO gross, but so awesome! WOO!)

I always loved stake dances! the youth dances seem to always be better than the young adult dances. however I do recall a certain Valentine's Dance that my friend (now husband) had organized, that was super fun but it was also only for our branch...maybe thats why it was fun. heheheehe.
I hope you feel better soon! like sooner than 8pm. what kind of medicines have you been taking? the DayQuil+Vitamin C liquid gels work way good.
Have fun!
ps...i lurve Lady Gaga...even though she is weird. :D
so cute!
Lady Gaga is fabulousss...

"you were dancing with pickle girl? sorry dude. I could have warned you."

I hate dances, but wouldn't mind dancing with a girl. Just... dances are awkward for a me.
