Item #63

I realized a little something about dreams last night. They don't always have to be perfect.

I decided to cross off item #63 on my life list last night. Go to the dance club that I see in my fantasies.

If you know me at all you know that I love trance and dance music. When I listen to it I like to think of a club scene (minus the E) with laser lights behind the dj and people dancing on multiple levels.
 
Kinda like this




Last night I went to a New Years Eve party at Detroit's Filmore Theater. I had never spent a new years in such a big party. Seeing as 2011 was the best year of my life I thought I ought to celebrate it in a big way.

I got to check that item off because as I stood there in the thick of it all and realized that while I didn't quite expect this would be night to cross this item off everything, about it was close enough what I had been waiting for.

Maybe there wasn't a three level dance floor, and Tiesto wasn't the dj, but there was a green laser like the one pictured above and the atmosphere gave me the feeling that I had been wishing for.

I thought that if I kept on waiting for this perfect dream to play out I may never get it. Dreams are what you make them. You make your own rules about what makes your dream and what doesn't.
