We had a little party at  my place of employment tonight. J brought down his turntables and spun for a couple of hours. We moved the clothing racks out of the way so we had a nice open space to dance & for the kids to play.

It was strange, listening to a bunch of my favorite house records being spun in a kid’s boutique while the shorties boogied down. Such a far cry from years gone by when I’d have been listening to those same songs in some dark warehouse, high as a kite, not a care in the world.

Nowadays it’s my daughter who wants to put glitter dust all over her face, and I’m content to be home by 9:00. Funny how things change, and yet my love for the music and the dancing is undiminished, and I shelter it in the place in my heart where I know who I truly am.
