It's been a while since I have been out, and have been practically climbing the walls. I finally had a Saturday evening that was open and had to jump at the chance.
Since the kids were home, I went to my friend Sherrie's to get ready. I didn't have anything planned for the evening. I was up for anything and Sherrie suggested a dance club downtown. Neither of us had been there before, but Sherrie knew the DJ and said they play 80's genre music.
We got there early, before the place filled up. We ordered drinks and sat down to talk. Before I realized it, there were people everywhere. We met the DJ's girlfriend and she introduced us to so many people. (I have to be honest and say I don't remember half of their names) Anyway, they wouldn't take no for an answer and had me out on the dance floor fairly quickly. Well, my stamina isn't what it once was. I just couldn't keep up. I had to sit down, but they dragged me back out again and again. I was very tired by the end of the night.I loved it!
A few things surprised me last night. Now, granted I've not been to a dance club in a looooooooonnnggg time. The club played all 80's hits, yet there were more young people than I could have imagined.
Hmm, maybe there's hope for today's youth! 
Also, the club was GLBT friendly. We knew that before going, but I was surprised at the mixture of people. A multitude of age groups, a multitude of races, all genders (no, I don't think there were any missing) -- dancing and having a great time. It was a lot of fun for me. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. A definite on the "Do again" list.
I hope everyone had a good weekend.
Hugs,
Kyra

Sorry Kyra you made me laugh!! When I first moved to Milwaukee I went with girls from the office out to the clubs. All the girls got up to dance and all the men sat there and watched like it was truly a cattle call! I was mortified that none of the men danced. So it makes me giggle that your SO doesn't dance with other women. It took me a while to get the hang of it but the electric slide works for everyone!!
