"I wanna dance till my feet can't feel the ground"

Oooooh my word. If only stuff like that happened more often...than twice a year. Meaning the *real* balls, not the practices. People can be extremely random. And, have a knack for finding really short-sized sets of people. Short people in the sets...uh. I think that's right. If that didn't make sense. There are only short people in the set. There, ha, I did it. Hunting the Fox + 1 tall couple + 7 other short couples = awkwardness, and slow. This, has actually happened before. Same dance. Same guy, actually. It's creepy. Details later...some peoples know the guy I'm talking about, some people don't. Meaning, you readers *points*. Hi. Ok...um. Pictures will come soon...I hope. I have to load them off of my mom's camera...and there's be more.."action" type pictures from facebook that I can get. (my mom was busy talking during the dances, not taking pictures :-D)

And, below. Are our rules for the balls/ball practices. For people who don't know or they do know, but know a bit differently than we do, or...don't want to know. If you don't want to know, then...skip. Or skim, either one.

Gentlemen, if you come to these dances, it generally means that you're willing to dance. Since there are usually more girls than guys at this sort of thing, you are expected to do your duty and dance with as many girls as possible so none of them feel left out. Of course, don't kill yourselves (though what a noble cause this would be! hehe), and don't feel guilty if you are unable to dance with all the girls with which you would like to dance. But make an effort; we appreciate it! If a girl refuses you, don't ask why - she has a good reason! Just politely walk away and ask another girl.

Ladies, help the guys out! Accept them when they ask you to dance, stand up (and preferably stand where the gentlemen will know you're dancing this one) while waiting for a partner, and be polite. If you feel you absolutely must refuse a young man (i.e., my leg fell off, I stood too close to the fire and my dress is burned through in the back, I really think you're a total creep, etc.), do it nicely and give them a reason if you can courteously do so. Try not to be too obvious in attracting a certain young man's attention! This can often be a major turn-off, and tends to scare the poor guy away.

General rule: Be polite! These are our Christian brothers and sisters, so act like it!
