.: @ Fizz :.

I've been up little over nineteen hours so, please, bear with me.

Tonight I was not going to go to Fizz. Actually, choosing not to go Fizz. I was tired understandably after two jobs, one starting at 7:30 in the morning. But I put on ma drinking boots and decided to go out anyways! And was it worth it. Only two dances the entire evening. I didn't even bother with taking off the boots and putting on some dance shoes. Firstly, I tapped Noah in a sparring thing we always do. He was so proud. Heard about Z's new girl. Not the best thing to listen to after a breakup but sweet nonetheless. Then I spent the rest of night talking to good good friends I haven't had a good chat with in a long time...

Now, the reason I decided to go ahead and go was this:

"I am not going to Fizz. I'm tired and exhausted. The first time is a long time.

So this makes me think, why have I gone so long and so consistently? Now the answer has to be that I am responsible for it. Things need to get paid, schedule junk, do PR. While at one point I may have complained about the responsibility, I'm more than happy to do it. Mostly because of what its done for me.

So many great songs and dances. Such amazing times on the dance floor. With dancers just coming through the city. The Pros I was terrified to ask. The inspiration to be a better dancer. Inspiration to make the most of the energy and creativity in the room. I think Fizz folks know of phenomenon where watching a certain couple dance is bloody entertaining that you want to be a part of the fun!

Its been much more than what happens on the dance floor that keeps me coming back. Its the people that I meet. The friends I have made. The happy times, unfortunate dramas, and some outright sadness are the experiences that I take away from the dance floor. And its these experiences that drive me to get on the dance floor. So many countless times when I felt like shit, a good dance or good chat saved me. So many times I was so ecstatic, I had to share with my dance partner or my friends.

I can't tell you everything that I love about Fizz. But you can see some of it on the dance floor.

Then there was the one birthday/shot jam...."

There, I put on ma boots and I was out the door...
