I’m Just A Little Nervous…
Just a little anecdote for you to calm you down from all of these big Summer movies, I thought I’d share a humorous little story, an anecdote if you will. Back in March I was in Nashville for a Convention, and for the second night of festivities there was a dance, at which hundreds of (loud, noisy, pandemonic) teenagers would come and have a good time. I already had my mind made up that I wasn’t going, and so did one of my roommates. That is, until we were the last ones there, everyone else except for two people from our group (out of 60) had left, and then he decided he would go. I stayed, I didn’t wanna go, I was gonna stay in, read, and watch The King of Queens before hitting the sack a little early. I then got to thinking, what if it will be fun, what if blah blah blah, so I then decided I would check it out, if I liked it, I’d stay, if not, I’d go back and enjoy Scrubs. I started to leave my room while profusely rubbing the left side of my neck (for those of you who know me I can be a nervous person). I rubbed it until I started to go up the escalators, a few yards from the dance center. I had been rubbing while walking for about 10 minutes, and apparently these girls behind me had been behind me the whole time, so they asked, “Is your neck OK?!??!?!?” I turned around, looked at them, said “Yea, nervous habit” and got onto the escalator. Long story short, I got to the dance center, it was really loud, they were playing this rap music I didn’t really like, and it was loud, (whenever they played a song where everyone was supposed to jump up and down, the floor vibrated), and I decided to leave, enjoying some Jay Leno in the peacefulness of my Game Informer.

but you can dance if you want to!
You can leave your friends behind!
Cause your friends don’t dance and if they don’t dance then they’re no friends of mine!

A safety dance reference was inevitable.
