That's alright! So am I, and I'm making the most of it by watching Footloose and doing a little online shopping. An 80s or 90s movie about teens just being teenagers always makes me feel better when I'm not actually out being a teenager. Not to mention the soundtracks are just so amazing and they really make you feel a little excited to just be watching the movie, almost like you're really there!
Do you know what I love about footloose in comparison to modern dance-centered movies? It's all about fun dancing, dancing that any average Joe can do if they just loosen up and have fun and try. Modern dance movies are all about dancing that you have to have practiced since you were in the womb. No matter how hard I try, I'm never gonna be able to pop, lock or drop it, but I sure as heck can do the mashed potato, and the hand-jive, and get jiggy with it!
Another way to have fun during a lonely Saturday night is to do some self-pampering. Paint your nails, wear that face masque, leave your hair in curlers and skip the damaging heat! It doesn't matter, because you're by yourself, no one to laugh at your green-with-mintjulep-face, or your crazy grandma curlers (They won't be laughing anyways with their split ends), or your "I just painted my toenails" walk.
I actually like spending a few Saturday nights alone, it's really relaxing, and I think alot of people worry too much about what they should be doing, or what they want to be doing, instead of enjoying what they are doing. And that's what life's about, enjoying where you are, being in the moment, and having fun no matter what's happeneing. So take a Saturday night to yourself and learn how to do that :) It's an invaluable lesson!
