there thing at Red Light, resale clothing
store.
the music is so loud here it's like being in a club. right now the music is all girl music, singing about being free from 'fucking bad boyfriends.' we find some floor space in front of a shelf with shoes and get going. we are warmed up from our previous gigs up the street and since the music rocks, so do we.
a women carrying an armload of clothes eyes us from a row over and is coming closer, slowly. she asks, what are you doing? I explain Dance Anywhere the hawthorne street tour. She says, can I join in then? we all say, yes,
come on. she puts her clothes down on the floor and starts right in swaying and swinging her arms. we are all smiling at each other.
this is really fun and I feel happy dancing away.
a store employee wants to know about the tour when we go to the cashier to buy our purchases (Lisa, t-shirts for her son and Lindsey a cool pair of shoes). I give her one of the 'cards' I made for people who ask about us or participate...she's happy now too.
being in our bodies as we move around hawthorne is like being high on something. I will not say "high on life" because it's not life exactly, life is too outside of us. o, we're high on us. that's it.
