contra. danced with the cool nurse dude who knows everything and two other very knowledgeable partners and there were several awfully exhilarating dances. tried my new dancing shoes, and they were lovely. it started raining and everything's damp, the snow starting to melt and run. a test tomorrow at nine am, too. one of the old couples who always come--when i say 'old' i mean fifties--had a moment that i witnessed today. aww. meltmelt. no, so sweet--he'd bent all the way down over her, she was hiding her face in his shoulder and he was nuzzling at her hair and her ear, i think saying something very quietly.

i want my wax.

oh, and phineasjones, i saw your ex briefly. tralala. my hands are cold. hmf.

wah! ::spooked::

i wish i could think of something subtle you could do in her presence that would freak her out. i would take much sadistic pleasure from that. alas, i have no ideas.

i'm sorry. well, she might not notice. cause we don't really know each other, anyway. i recognize her by some quite distinctive hair.

Re:

[phineasjones.livejournal.com]

distinctive hair? what, is it long again?

Re:

[cimness.livejournal.com]

nope, there are little shaved patches.

Re:

ok. i'm thinking we're not talking about the same gal. unless she's undergone some massice personality transformation - which i suppose is possible, given the number of years since i've seen her. erica as i knew her would never shave bits of her hair. i mean, the thought is making me chuckle. when i met her, her hair was waistlength and then she cut it to chin length and that was a Huge Deal. i wonder... i can't really imagine anyone in her family with shaved hair either - but it's possible we're talking about her sister, naomi or something... hmm.

oh, well, it's possibly someone else. could be a different erica. carolyn says this one also has parents who are regulars, but that could also be a coincidence.

Re:

[phineasjones.livejournal.com]

s'pose this could all be a coincidence, yeah. hmm. ok, one more question - how tall is this erica that you've seen?

Re:

[cimness.livejournal.com]

ummm, kind of... i don't know. average ish i think? not extremely tall or short, because i'd've noticed that. maybe taller than me, possibly...

Re:

[phineasjones.livejournal.com]

ok then. that's settled. different erica. my erica is short. like, 5'2". i can't decide whether this is a relief or a dissappointment. probably both, to be honest.

Re:

hahaah. go with relief, it's more fun that way!
