Late One Night

So now it's Saturday, at least I think it's Saturday. (I suspect being up for 20 hours yesterday has something to do with that, I was going to write this post when I got home but it was nearly 1:30am so I decided not too)

The ball was absolutely wonderful, it's the best fun that I've had in ages. Everybody looked really flash. We did a couple of Waltz's and also did the Gay Gordon twice. K & I managed to do the Cha Cha to one of the songs but it wasn't really designed for it. When we were going through the DVD earlier in the week we didn't do the Rumba but maybe we should've instead of the Cha Cha. During one of the songs B showed me some of the steps for the Rumba and it fitted in better with some of the music they were playing than the Cha Cha did (but it was hard work!) Ariskah & I were going to have a go at the Fox Trot but the people who were demonstrating how it went didn't really know how it went. By the time we thought we had it figured out, the song finished. Fortunately the next one was a Waltz so we did that instead. There were some people there doing SaRock and that looked really cool, I must find out more about that. About midnight I drove home with Ariskah and then KC bought me back, I walked in the door and K said they'd just done the last Waltz & she'd had to dance by herself cos I wasn't there. I was gutted that I'd missed it but oh well.

The other really cool thing that happened yesterday is that I got my new commodore. It's a 1996 VS wagon with a 3.8l V6. It is automatic but I couldn't find a manual one. Also, I was talking to M & he said his brother had a manual one and it wasn't very reliable. It's shiny and green (or blue, depending on how the light catches it.)

Today, when I finally got out of bed I went to the Railway Engineers place for a quick visit, I took the Silly Little Japanese Car because his wife wanted to have a drive of it and see what she thought. She's going to buy it & I can't say I'm sad to see it go, now all I have to do is put a new WOF on it.
