I am not completely sure where your issue is but I did notice your post on your LJ. The one that says Dancing after it doesn't actually appear to have the coding for "Dancing Script" in at least one example and the other try putting single quotes around it:

font-family: 'Dancing Script';

Typically the title of it has to be exactly what google calls it and usually you need those single quote around it.

As for the spacing. If it is in a post make sure there aren't extra paragraph.

You can control entry text in the "entry" coding of your layout.

You might want to change from:

.entry {
padding: 10px 20px 10px 20px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
color: #000000;
font-family: "trebuchet ms", arial, sans-serif, "Pacifico", cursive;
font-size: 13px;
text-align: left;
}

to this

.entry {}

.entry_text {
padding: 10px 20px 10px 20px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
color: #000000;
font-family: "trebuchet ms", arial, sans-serif, "Pacifico", cursive;
font-size: 13px;
line-height: 100%;
text-align: left;
}

You can control the font, font-size and if you want your entry text lines spaced out more you can up the line-height from 100% to 110%. I like mine at 130%.

Does that help?
