2003-10-12 at 12:51 p.m. - Yesterday Today

Due to my kidnapping yesterday, I never got to post this...(meaning, this was yesterday's entry.)

Ok, I had to get rid of the negative entry before this one. I just couldn't stand to see it anymore. I am moving past what has happened and pressing on. So anyways...

Swing dancing was a blast last night. Jason is like this "big, masterful, Lord of the dance" guy, whereas I am the Queen of Two Left Feet, and well, he said he was surprised by me tonight. We were talking about this before, and I told him to be honest with me and tell me what I need to work on (this was at rehearsal last Sunday), and he told me that I was too stiff and that I need to loosen up and have fun with it. Well, we left the dance half way through with his friends Wendy and Chris to go get some dinner and I told him in the car, "I'm sorry I'm not great at this but if you want to dance with someone else on the fast stuff, I won't mind." And he was like, "No way! You surprised me tonight and I think you dance great." Hmmm...not sure if I believe that quite yet, but it was a good ego booster for me. Needless to say, it was tons o' fun.

However now, I am in pain. Last night we were all driving home and I was like, "Man, my wrists are killing me." I guess it was from all the spinning I did and that did some work on my wrists. Plus, I have been doing a conditioning type of work out for the last few days. I want to get back into shape. I have been running and doing sets of crunches, push-ups, squats, and lunges. And yeesh, my calves are sore. I'm not sure if the dancing helped to eliviate that or what.

So yes, so far today I have babysat. I was up at 7:45, and I was there from 8:30 to 10:45. Good times. Those kids are so awesome and so easy to babysit for. I feel bad that they are in the situation they are. The dad left the mom and it's kind of been odd watching that happen because when I started babysitting for them, they were together. I don't like divorce at all. It all stems from sin, I know that, and I think no matter what happens in relationships, there is always some form of reconciliation. Divorce is not an answer.

And this is where the entry ended, when Amanda, Lewis, Dain, and Trent (more everyone else then Trent) came and kidnapped me and took me thrifting all along the little shoppes that dot US-1, and then all the way clear up to Kennedy Space Center because it's Brevard Resident free pass weekend. THEN to the mall and to Best Buy so they all could buy CD's. I found original West Side Story Vinyl for Jason at one of the thrift shoppes. He liked it a lot. We went and saw "School Of Rock" last night. It was ok, not the funniest thing, but definitely something you could take your kids too, there weren't any sex jokes and minimal swearing. It was cute seeing kids who could play like that because it was all real. I want to learn how to play bass...
