You need chaos in your soul
to give birth to a dancing star.
-Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
It appears that I have a chaotic soul.
Yesterday Cass and I were in Philadelphia for Baby Loves Disco.
Baby Loves Disco is an afternoon dance party for kids and parents, and it is serious fun. I am not going to lie, I kinda miss the whole clubbing scene, and I just don’t get enough opportunities to dance to my heart’s content anymore.
I would venture to say that the music yesterday was better than it ever was when I frequented clubs.
Some Abba, some Madonna, some Young MC, some Jackson 5–it doesn’t get better than that.
When you need to take a break, there’s all kinds of other things to do- Cass got her face painted, ate some snacks, got a temporary tattoo, played with cool toys.
Then we flopped for a while and read through the books that were provided in one of several “chill out” areas.
Then, back to dancing.
Until, finally:
collapse.
It was a good time. Frankly, I can’t wait to do it again. Who else wants to go?
