(no subject)
So, my parents have ventured into the land of the 'supermarket' on Christmas Eve Eve, never to be seen again. Meanwhile, I'm running on 5.5 hours of sleep, I didn't get the coffee I was promised, and I smell...tasty. Actually, I smell like 80's night...smoke, sweat, and the vodka that Leigh spilled on me. Mmmm...it was a beautiful reunion, indeed. The BFHS classes of 'o4 and 'o5 were well-represented, the music was AWESOME, and our favorite 6-belted dancer was back in all his sparkly glory. Ms Van Norman was drunk off her ass, couldn't walk/climb stairs, and ended her night with a staring/pouting contest...with a picture of Jim Morrison.
Lameass 2am curfew ends tonight. I'm excited.
