Hi, Helen!
We had/were having a really excited/exciting time at the party last night - in fact at 3 a.m. we still danced/were still dancing!
If you won't come/don't come to the next one you will be/won't be sorry!
No headache excuses next time, OK?!
Anyway, when I arrived/was arriving, Paul danced/was dancing with Abby! I was so surprised! Why did he dance/ was he dancing with her? Where was Ruth? Just, then Ruth walked/was walking in with Luke! They held/were holding hands and I felt a bit disappointed/disappointing because I really liked/was really liking Luke. But then I met/was meeting Luke's brother, Harry, and ... WOW! But I will tell/am telling you about him tomorrow if I will see/see you. Do you/Will you think you will feel/are going to feel better tomorrow?
Listen, I must go now because Harry will/is going to phone in a minute - do you think he will ask/is asking me out tonight?
Who knows - anyone/anything might happen!
Get well soon!
Love,
Emma
