Dance party in my bedroom. I’m gonna need a giant disco ball.
(By the way, I’m not a fan of the N-word, which makes an appearance in this song. I am, however, a fan of Miss Elliot and her various Misdemeanors. I also enjoy running things.)

moves indeed! a nd thin! you’ve always been thin- bit when I was having a shitty year I dropped 20 lbs — to my 8th grade weight — and people couldnt stop talking about how great i looked. I would be walking down the street in greenwich village weeping and friends would stop me to tell me how I was looking so good! weird

Reminds me of those old youtubes of the “Dancing Girl” with the fur hats. I think she was from Scotland. Mary Something, I think. Anyway, it’s a compliment.

This is funny!
It’s like being behind someone’s mirror when they are dancing in their bedroom by themselves.
You are very brave to post this. Although I don’t see your face, so maybe it’s not really you. (kidding)

I love that you posted this. So great! Nothing like some solo dancing to shake away a bad mood and lousy day and make you feel good. Keep dancing, Maggie! 🙂

DANG. Me doing that would be more robot than hip and a laugh riot: you make it look awzom. And whether or not it’s true for you, I can attest to the Divorce Weight-Loss Program and how weird it was to have everyone say “Wow you look fantastic!” when you’re dying slowly on the inside.

Okay Maggie, you obviously like to dance. I urge you to get thy booty to a Les Mills BODYJAM class pronto (it could be one of your fun things!)
It’s an hour long class full of cool moves to hot music (Les Mills classes are the only ones in the world that use music by the original artists instead of cheesy covers – they’ve even used that Missy song in the past)
It’s the most fun you can have exercising (also, it kicks Zumba’s ass…)
You can find gyms in San Francisco that have it here: http://www.lesmills.com/global/classes/find-a-class.aspx
And you can see a taster video here: http://www.lesmills.com/global/bodyjam/bodyjam-group-fitness-class.aspx. (Note: The music on the video is NOT indicative of what you get in class – music licensing prevents the actual class music being put online)
Seriously, you don’t need drugs when you do this class, it is mind altering in and of itself!

Yay for dance parties! Maureen, you’re thinking of BandyToaster (Sophie Merry) from Ireland; one of my all time fave dance videos. Maggie’s excellent moves did make me think of her also. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr2JneittqQ

I went to the Soul Train event in Chicago mentioned above on Saturday. I went by myself but when hundreds of people gasped in appreciation and joy when James Brown came on, I knew I wasn’t alone, and when I came back from a break and the dance floor was united in an epic electric slide, I knew I’d found my people.
