It’s Open Season On My Prom Pic
OK I love good self-deprecation. I do.
So when I saw all my favorite bloggers participating in A Belle, A Bean & A Chicago Dog’s Senior Hottie linkup, I said, sure… I can poke fun at myself.
Hopefully my husband won’t mind.
See, he was my senior year prom date, and my junior year date too.
Yup, I’ve known him a loooooong time. Good news is, I still think he’s pretty darn cute (maybe cuter?).
Anyway, here it is… our senior prom picture… and yes, we were king and queen BUT we didn’t call it that, it was called something else but I can’t remember what AND this was NO big deal.
DO YOU LOOOVE THE DYED TO MATCH RED SHOES?!? OMG! They go so nicely with carpet don’t they? And the fake tree in the background just gives this such a natural setting don’t ya think?
I remember buying this dress at a mall on a trip to Florida. I remember it was pretty much just lycra and I think it cost like $40.00. I was so excited to be wearing red, because it was something I would NEVER wear. And it was tight – something I would NEVER wear. Don’t know why, but I was just really conservative (notice the pearls I’m wearing, sheesh).
As there were only 84 kids in my graduating class it was not like a prom campaign you see them do in the movies, it was just a last minute vote the day before the dance. It didn’t mean a thing, except I think we got up to dance alone for like five minutes which was über embarrassing to say the least.
The rest of my prom memories involve a terrible club in NYC and then peppermint schnapps. From there it all went downhill.
Ahhh stupid high school kids.
