Maybe it is because I am reading Smashed. Maybe it is because my life is about to change BIG TIME and FOREVER, but I have been getting nostalgic for my party youth days. It was like this story jumped out of my computer and hit me in the face.
Bozeman's Adult Prom.
How f-ing fun would that be? Gotta find a date that would dance with me though. Hubby claims that "I don't dance." Although the claim is totally false, he could truthify it up by adding "I don't dance - to anything but the Grateful Dead." My love for him is deep, but I learned from my highschool sweetheart that if you love to dance, don't take a nondancer to the prom. I will even add, if you love to dance, don't take a date who only dances to the Grateful Dead to your prom. I don't know where all of you grew up, but I am pretty sure there would have been a riot if the DJ busted out some sweet Jerry riffs at our prom. So - I would not take Hubby to adult prom, I would go with my ladies.
Best prom ever - going stag with my ladies Soni and Jeselle. We all wore black. My step-dad bought us crossiages, it was f-ing rad. I danced with whatever boys or girls I felt like and boy did I dance my ass off.
I wasn't your typical prom goer. I wasn't popular. I wasn't cute. I wasn't mainstream. I usually wasn't sober. I swear it made it even better.
Maybe someday we can all go down to Bozeman's Adult Prom. I feel like I have some dance moves yet to share.

You are reading every book off of my "I Really Want to Read You List." You should email me with you thoughts on both the Perfect Girls and Smashed books. Free reading will be so nice after the end of the week! But instead of continuing to read about women and such I should read about bong water and beer to you know mix things up a bit. Also adult prom sounds amazing! I wanna come:( It could be like high school in the back seat of some dudes car just kidding I was and still am angel.
