(posted at a fake date to pretend i'm punctual)
the dance: commentary etc. (the only problem being the repeated mention of matt coleman, which i apologize for in advance...but my company was such that he was a very substantial part of the evening) :P:
heard and seen at said dance, the following amusing bits (in almost chronological order):
"so...what do y'all *usually* do at these dances?" - ally, to beebs and i
"nice costume...what are you?" - carson (who is walking around with what to the casual observer would appear to be a mortal chest wound, yet is quite blithe), to mikey
caitlin pushing ally at matt coleman, telling him that ally wants to dance with him; ally insisting she doesn't; will saying that nobody should force anybody into anything, that he gets enough of that from matt, and this resulting in matt trying to bully will into break-dancing
"' 'tis but a scratch'...the black knight rocks my world." - sean singer
"your hair looks funny." - aj, to me, in true gentlemanly form. at least he didn't say it was big, which was the other most-said thing...
"you could pass out...or, we could knock you out and say, 'ally can't dance with you right now, she's unconscious'" - beebs and becky and i to allison, when she asked for advice in how to turn down matt coleman's impending request for a dance
"yes, it is the latest fashion to keep your tie in your pocket." - jon borden
"..." - will, standing there
"i hate this song. i HATE this song." - becky, in a rare moment of extreme stubborn opinion :)
"i gave harlan a wedgie!" - matt coleman, ecstatically as befits him
the little girls getting on the end of the "move-it" line and moving it themselves
"gaaah" - doug when he found out about it
geeta doing head-bangers and having to manually flip her hair back and forth every time
"will, break-dance. c'mon will. NOW." - matt coleman (who else)
"i'll have a heart attack maybe. or a stroke! yeah, a stroke." - ally, still plotting
"ohh....that was beau'iful..." - michelle. she knows how to enjoy herself dancing, i'll tell you that
"i'm sooo jealous! why didn't you tell me?" a few girls to their friends when said friends participated in the part of the conga line that diverted into the men's bathroom
sarah and michelle dancing freakily at guys who are writhing in agony on the ground during the nsync song (also during this song, brian remarked sadly, "why do they play backstreet boys songs here?")
"matt coleman gave harlan a wedgie!" - my mom, who got to witness the aftermath of the spectacle
jeffrey and jesse dancing together to lovefool
"um...sure. okay." - ally to matt, when he asked her to dance
