Protected: My 1st Prom.
Sunday, June 3rd, 2007
Last night my husband and I went to the “2nd chance prom”. My daughter called the radio station on Thursday (also known as the day I killed a cat day) after school and won us free tickets AND a hotel room. We took the kids with us early in the day to check into the hotel. Then we went swimming in the hotel pool, did a little hot tub time and then went out for dinner. Pizza Hut was on the menu…. we stopped for hotel snacks for the kids and then went to the room to get ready.
I of course forgot my camera so Ashlee took this picture with her phone. We left the kids with enough snacks to keep them alive for days and went to find the “party”.It wasn’t quite what I thought it would be. But it was fun for the hour or so that we were there. The one person I wanted to meet, one of the radio DJs, wasn’t there and that was kind of a bummer. See I’m in love with him… not like I wanna hump him kinda love, but the kinda love that’s like I want to hang out and be couple friends forever. Anyway, that’s beside the point. ha!
Karl and I were old… man were we old. We were about an hour fashionably late too so all the tables were taken. We found a backish corner and I drank a couple rum and cokes pretty quickly. We laughed at the little drunk 20somethings falling down. we listened to the overly loud DJ singing “To the window (TO THE WINDOW), to the wall, (TO THE WALL) To the sweat drop down my balls (MY BALLS)” WTF?! This is an actual song, people, have you heard it?
“To the window (TO THE WINDOW), to the wall, (TO THE WALL)…..To the sweat drop down my balls (MY BALLS)” I haven’t been able to get it out of my head since.
We danced to a slow song, “journey - Open Arms”, I realized I am a dwarf and danced on my tippy toes the entire time. We kissed and giggled and gazed into each others eyes, while acting mature. I had another drink, we went to smoke outside and just decided to get the kids and head home. It was fun and we didn’t need or want to go back inside.
“To the window (TO THE WINDOW), to the wall, (TO THE WALL) To the sweat drop down my balls (MY BALLS)”
We packed up the hotel room in 10 minutes if that, shoving stuff in the bags, throwing everything together, grabbed the snacks and left over pizza and we were outta there. I wanted to call my best friend but I didn’t have my phone and my husband doesn’t didn’t have her number in his. :o( Ashlee asked what the “party” was about and I told them about the “ To the window (TO THE WINDOW), to the wall, (TO THE WALL) To the sweat drop down my balls (MY BALLS)” I flirted shamelessly with my husband while constantly telling the entire car load I had to pee. Karl pulled into the driveway and I jumped out to run inside to pee. They laughed at me…. buttholes.
“To the window (TO THE WINDOW), to the wall, (TO THE WALL) To the sweat drop down my balls (MY BALLS)”
Got the kids set up in the living room, its about midnight by now, they had a movie. My son on the couch with pillows and blanket, my daughter in the recliner with her pillows and blanket. Mr Man and myself retreated to bed. ;o)
It was a great night. I’m so glad he took me, I’m so glad it was fun and next year I am so taking some friends. Some OLD friends.
“To the window (TO THE WINDOW), to the wall, (TO THE WALL) To the sweat drop down my balls (MY BALLS)”
Oh and did I mention that we were under dressed compared to most people? Lots of tuxes and lovely ladies in fancy dresses. But it didn’t matter, cause we were totally the hottest couple in the room.
