I have often wished that I were less inhibited. That I would not fear singing at the top of my lungs when I was happy, no matter where I was. Or that when my husband dragged me to those church Valentine's Day dances that I hate so much that I could forget myself and just dance like I imagine me dancing in my head.
And then I saw this picture, and now I remember why I don't do those things.
People tell me i look goofy when I dance. Then I see other people dancing and I think "How goofy could I be compared to these idiots?" So now I just refuse to dance.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is at weddings when all the old people (like me) get up and do the twist to show the youngsters how hip they (we) are. LAME!!
I know what you mean. I refuse to dance, too, much to my husband's disappointment.
DeleteHahahahaha! I love this Judy. Sometimes I wish I was a little more INhibited.. Okay, I don't but I'm sure my kids do! :D
ReplyDeleteYou are the perfect amount of UNinhibited!! And I'm sure your children love it!!!! I know I do!
DeleteHaha! I can't dance, and my husband absolutely loves to. He drags me out on the floor, I make a fool out of myself for one dance, then he remembers I don't belong out there and lets me sit and talk to friends for the rest of the night. Then I'm happy. LOL
ReplyDeleteDana!! We're twins!!
DeleteThat is hilarious! I'll be sure to *make sure* no one is watching when I dance :D
ReplyDeleteSee, Jenn, that's just it - - - I wish I didn't care who was watching! haha
DeleteLOL!! I love the graphic!
ReplyDelete:)
DeleteLOL that picture is a hoot!!!! I freely admit that I sing, play air guitar/drums on my steering wheel and car dance with abandon...
ReplyDeletewhy doesn't that surprise me? :)
DeleteYou are too funny. I think we do judge ourselves too harshly, but then I haven't seen you dance yet... hahahaha.
ReplyDeletehaha, see that's just it, Robin. I WOULD dance if nobody would watch me :)
DeleteI love to dance and it's really difficult for me to drag my husband to any dance! I'm sure I look ridiculous dancing but when I'm in the moment it's okay! :)Judy, just do it anyway! :)
ReplyDeleteIf I could just get over the feeling of looking stupid :)
DeleteI fully recommend dancing like no one is watching ... provided no one is watching, of course.
ReplyDeleteOf course :)
DeleteHa ha ha! I have about as much rhythm as a dead elephant and hate it when people try to make me dance. If only they knew... ;-)
ReplyDeleteI decided a long time ago that nobody can MAKE me dance :)
DeleteHaha! I'm shy too but I think I'd like to stay this way :)
ReplyDeleteMostly I like being a little shy and introverted, but sometimes I just want to let loose and go crazy!!
DeleteHa! I can get away with doing crazy things like that because I always have a certain 3 1/2 foot tall person with me!
ReplyDeleteMaybe that's the answer - - I'll just have to borrow somebody's 3 1/2 foot tall person!
DeleteYeah...you should see me at weddings :-) I have gotten to the point, though where I just don't care :-)
ReplyDeleteI envy you - - I'm not at that point. Maybe it's best, though :)
DeleteWhen everyone has access to cell phones with cameras & youtube, I think you're making a wise decision.
ReplyDeleteI love to dance. In the middle of a crowd so nobody can see me. lol
