This page is here because of the Sweetheart dance. It merely reminded me to write this, it actually has nothing whatsoever to do with the dance itself.
I've never been to a dance. I don't know how to act at a dance or anything like that. I went to a barn dance once, but that didn't really count I think. I want to go to a dance sometime, I want to know how to dance first though. I'm not going to make an ass of myself if I can help it. That's probably why I've never gone to any. That's probably also why the barn dance didn't count. I'm too uptight. Fun is not often a word in my vocabulary when a large group is present. I am very concerned with my image. For almost 20 years my image has been all I've had, it wasn't a GOOD image by any means, but it was MINE. Now I find it's hard to let go of it. Try though I may I simply can't have fun with people. That's not true, if I'm with certain people and we're in a crowd of people I don't know, or we see someone I don't know, I'll make an ass of myself quicker than anyone else and ask the questions no one else wants to ("Are you from Illinois?" inside joke...). According to thespark.com I am "the boyscout" the nice guy that gets kicked around until I'm older. The one guy every girl should want, but none do. Not yet. Maybe that's why I don't go to dances, no one to dance with. That and I'm too uptight.
