Old people dancing c.c

Jun 06, 2009 17:42

Mom took me along as her +1 last night to a retirement party. One of her collegues from within mental health was, obviously, retiring. He's 65 and an amusing old fella. Dances like my Poppa c.c

Anyway - so, I sort of agreed to go at the last minute, and then mom played Barbie with me and did my hair and makeup. Yes. I actually wore makeup c.c

I put on my pretty green&black-lace dress and wore high-heels (again, yes, I actually wore high heels) and felt rather pretty with the earings, mecklace, bracelet and ring that all matched and went well with the dress ^^

The place was alright, there were about forty people all told, all at least ten years older than me, quite a few verging on thirty years older than me c.c And they were all in mental health, most of them were shrinks of some sort XD

Mom and I chatted, mom did the rounds, while I sort of hung around being the odd one out, we drank a little and chatted a lot, listened to two good speeches and one not-so-good speech (where I kept wanting to go and tell him to lift his chin up and speack louder), I watched mom join in with the dancing a bit (and we both enjoyed ourselves watchign people dance around imaginary hand-bags, in that time-old eighties fashion XD)

All in all, it was a pleasent evening, and it got me out of the house.
