Shake it, but dont Break it

Recently, I spent a night out on the town, with some friends. Mind you, it was my first time going out, since FOREVER. lol. Taking care of family and handling the daily demands and stresses of life, can surely take its toll on one's perception of that seemingly elusive ...joie de vive. lol   It just seemed like there was no end to the "all work and no play,"...syndrome which monopolized my daily existence.

There was that "lets do lunch" or "lets go on a girl's night out"..which never seemed to make it, onto any of  the calendar blocks. No special highlighted....ME time. My calendar is filled with a daily "To Do List"....task schedules, appointments,forms to pick up and to be filled out, taking family members to work and to school, picking them up afterwards, medical appointments....in fact, it all seemed impressive to be able to follow the calendar to the letter. Multicolored check marks, reds, blues, greens, purple, pink...et cetera.  Truthfully? It was plain and damn BORING. hahaha.  Days would turn into weeks and then, months would pass, and the growing urge to step out and have some fun, would just go by with a long drawn sigh.

Well, that was until recently when I just FB'd (faced booked...messaged), my friend Oni and she told me that it was high time that we step out and have some fun in the form of.... Dancing. Yup, you got that right...it was time to get out there and dance all that stress away...hahaha!  I would say that it was fantastic! We went to Rumours....at the Alamoana Hotel...and the crowd there was just rocking the floor off!

The last time I ever remember being at Rumours, is when I was 22-23 years old! Yeeeaah! hahaha Oh, but here was a crowd that I would say, that I truly felt in sync and totally comfortable with through and through. I was dancing up a storm, and took breaks in between. I was just shaking and working that body to all that great  music...like there was no tomorrow.
