Two in a Day--You Should Be Excited!

Either that or really annoyed, because you now feel the obligation to scroll through two complete posts of my babbling...if you're one of those, I'm freeing you of that feeling right now. After all, I can't see how much you read--I only see hits on my blog, so I could care less if you actually read it =)

Yes, that was a joke. I like people to read it...it makes me happy inside. As my friend would say, "It makes me giggle." It's a good thing.

I'm tired...can you tell I had a midterm today? Plus Latin class...plus work...now I'm at Wegmans, completely not motivated to study any more. I have basically no classes tomorrow, so I feel justified in taking a break.

Anyway, the point of this post (yes, there actually was one) was to put up the pictures from our hoedown last Saturday night =) Just a warning: we have this dance in a barn. A barn with absolutely NO overhead lighting. So they're not great pictures. But they're fun, and they show you a) that I did, in fact, go to the hoedown, and b) that I do, in fact, still take pictures =) So here goes:

 There was a community potluck or something like that going on when we got there, so we couldn't start the dancing right away...so we decided to take advantage of this standing-around time to take pictures =)



There was also an adorable puppy running around, making us all happy...



Then we got to dance! We listened to country music for like three hours straight...it was wonderful =) 



Some people danced, some...stood around watching (i.e. being lame)...



And some people are just incredible dancers...every time Megan and her brother dance, I want to teach my brother. And then I remember that he's 14 and would probably rebel...But in the absence of a satisfactory brother to dance with, can I  mention how handy other people's flashes can be? My only real light was from the source you can see in the top left of the next photo...not much for a huge barn =P (Also, because it's annoying me right now, may I say how troublesome blogspot can be at times? It's a wonderful tool...but it doesn't work perfectly with a pleasing arrangement of photos =P)

Oh, and if you hadn't gotten this...there was a lot of plaid =) PHCers actually look good in plaid...this is one dance we have no problem dressing up for =) 




Awesome girls =) Can you guess which one's my RA? (I'll give you a hint...she's having fun with the picture...got it now?)







We ended the evening with live music from our band (christened by some "Tater and the Tots") and singing...it was wonderful =) I don't have pictures of some of the most fun dances, like the Virginia Reel...cause I was dancing them...I also learned to cha-cha--it was a very exciting and altogether enjoyable evening =)
