Going Along With The Flow
It's funny just how close we can come to missing out on the good, albeit simple things in life. Yesterday was a perfect example, of how sometimes you just have to go with what comes your way and wait to see how it will all work out in the end.
Earlier this week I was invited to a party. Well it was kind of a last minute thing. Some friends wanted to get together and ordered a keg of beer. On Friday I was asked if I wanted to go. Since I honestly had nothing to do Saturday night, I said I would go. To be completely honest, I didn't really want to go. A lot of the people were, well friends, but not very good ones. The type of people that are your friends one minute, but will ditch you in a moments notice if something better comes along. I usually try to avoid these people, but since it was my friend "Tyrone" who invited me, and he has always been a decent friend, I said I would come, even if it was for only one beer.
Well when I got there, the party had already started. There was a lot of people I never met before, so I went around and made my introductions, found Tyrone and a couple other people I know and went to talk to them. After a while most of the people wanted to dance, one of the guys hooked up his sound equipment and started playing. Of course no one like the music so Tyrone asked if I could DJ seeing that I used to do some DJing before. I did not expect to do this seeing that I was planing to leave early, but for reasons unknown I said yes. I hooked up the guys computer and downloaded some music and played it directly from it. It was a smashing success. Everyone was having a great time.
More importantly, at least in my opinion, this one girl I met there "Janie" kept on coming up to talk to me when she wasn't dancing. When I had a couple of songs queued up, I went out and danced with her. I realize of course that it could mean nothing, but I think there was a real connection there, and I did get her number, so we'll see what happens.
At any rate, before I knew it it was 1:30 in the morning, and it was time to wrap things up. Everyone had a great time, I met a lot of great people, I've even been asked to DJ at a couple of up coming parties. The point is that sometimes the things we plan never seem to work out, but the things that just come along can be exactly where we need to go.
