I discovered that I am in some ways not geared up for partying. I couldn't locate my one small bag that passes as a handbag, I understand other women have collections but I don't have any. I also thought I'd put on some nail varnish - I'm not allowed to wear any to work as it could mask unclean nails, but as I was partying and it's a bank holiday weekend I thought I'd go for it. However it turns out that nail vanish doesn't last 23 years, so I've now chucked those bottles from my teens and went devoid of any masking, as usual.
In other ways I'm very geared up for partying. In some ways it is easier going alone, I could go and chat with anyone and met some interesting people to talk to and some fabulous folk to dance with. As people drifted away when it got late I did a commendable job of maintaining a (sometimes solitary) presence on the dancefloor - I had a lot of cake to burn off. And the dj was great, he warmed us up with various song/singing activities. I'm proud to have won my table points for recognising the Ghostbusters theme on its first note and we did some very enthusiastic air banjo.
My parents are coming today so I should have spent less of this weekend moping and more mopping, but they are understanding.
