"Saturday Night and I Ain't Got Nobody"

Well that song just flashed into my head, I guess because I am sitting here with my hair done, my nails done, and dressed to the max. All I need to do is put on my heels and decide where to go. But, why can't I do it. I just don't understand it, I really would love to go listen to some music and watch people dance and have fun, but I can't bring myself to do it. I just don't understand it all. I was welcomed to a beautiful sunny bright day so I went out and had my nails done, got a pedicure, a massage, and left feeling so very good. Once I got home I had a wonderful shower, washed my hair, then fixed it really pretty. Then I got dressed in a beautiful top with a lace blouse over the top of it, a jean mini skirt and stockings. And I must admit, I look pretty cute. But once I finished getting ready, I sit down in my seat in the telly room and starting watching a good movie. Spoke with my sister, but couldn't bring myself to ask her to go somewhere with me because she was having enough troubles of her own. After a few minutes on the phone with her I knew she wouldn't be interested in being in a club with lots of smoke, men gawking at her and trying to put a smile on her face so that she at least seemed pleasant. Me on the other hand, it would have been natural for me if the music was good, I know how to handle gawking men and I know I could have had a great time dancing the night away. But I didn't do it and now I am very disappointed in myself. Wasted another day in my life by staying inside, not going out into the World among the music and the living. Oh well, I can only be hopeful that I get another day to try again. Everyone of you who have taken the opportunity or took a chance in their life today to live, I applaud you so very much. You are showing your strength and courage. So I will try and not be to hard on myself, and just try and keep in mind, that each day is a learning experience, and mark this day up as a day of education. Maybe tomorrow will be a good risk taking day, lol. Have a Wonderful Weekend, and those of you having fun, good for you, and for those of us who weren't able to build up the courage to explore the outside World again today, hopefully we will be given another opportunity tomorrow.

Do I ever know how you feel... I love going dancing, but I don't drink, and I despise walking into a bar by myself. It's amazing how you can be in a nightclub full of people and be alone. I started taking ballroom dance lessons last year, and really liked it, but had to stop because of my work schedule. Maybe you should think about that.. I met several single people there.. of course I didn't stay long enough for our friendships to blossom. I do take myself out to eat every Friday evening.. and sometimes take in a movie. Do you like to bowl? Maybe you could join a bowling league. Just a thought.. take care.. and don't worry, when you are ready you will go!

sometimes being alone is being in the best company.maybe you should make aplan to do something specifically...like take your sister to a museum and lunch...i sense she could use some of your optimism?!i applaud you for taking the time to pamper yourself and for recognizing that you are a beautiful person.i look forward to the day that i can actually socialize with people in the physical world...for now i am really enjoying this cyberhood...it's just the right size...the world seems too big right now for me.

I made a vow to start living the way I wanted to live several years ago. I decided that this was my life and I was taking control of it and doing what I wanted to do. Now I go singing two times a week. Even though I go alone, I get lots of attention and it gives me a great feeling. Every so often women will ask me to dance and that is always enjoyable for me.

Even if I come in alone and go home alone, I love going and I'm having fun and doing something I enjoy is the most important thing. Too bad you don't live here, you sound like you'd be fun to go out with even to go singing or dancing with

I think you all for being so kind and sweet. Dancing lesson are an idea there, maybe belly dancing lessons, I know the basics bu would love to get better at it. Sounds like some of you have worked it out, so that you feel you are doing more in your life to live. I also try and keep in my mind that my move back to FL will be a successful one for me. Right now the cold, wet, icy weather keeps me from venturing very far. But when I lived in FL, it wasn't unusual to find me walking up and down a beach at different times of day, or to take a stroll through Y-bor City, where there are so many choices of an exploding night life scene. Again, thank you and I hope everyone has a magnificent day. Hugs, Angelica
