Party Like It’s…1983?

by Mary Anne on May 7, 2009

Oh My God! Like….TOTALLY! This is gonna be soooo bitchin’!

My dear friend Jen over at Blissfully Caffeinated and I have come up with such a totally rad idea y’all! Prom-a-palooza is on the horizon! Break out the chiffon, dust off your ruffled tux shirt, sing Journey at the top of your lungs. (or, if you aren’t as old as me, just post your pics of you looking all hawt and stuff and pretend you don’t mind hanging with a dinosaur like me…) Next Friday, we hope you will join us in remembering the cheesiest of your high school memories.

The magic, the lights, the malt liquor (oops wait, maybe that was just me…) the groping in the back seat (Good Lord, I need to stop talking), the drama of it all, PROM NIGHT!

Just to get you in the mood, here are a few pictures of me from 1984, the year after I debuted the most perfect Pepto Bismol pink dress in the history of EVER.

Drinking in a Holiday Inn in Galveston, Texas weeks after deciding that what I really needed in life was hair like Belinda Carlisle from The Go-Go’s. Classy.

Also, I thought I was a super-model which makes me DELUSIONAL.

Trust me, you will be treated to far larger hair in the prom pics so I hope you will join Jen from Blissfully Caffienated and I on this little journey.

Here’s the deal, next Friday, let us know you have posted. If you feel so inclined link back to us. We will in turn link back to you to create a fashion frenzy the likes of which have not been seen since, well, in my case 1983 or so.

So what do you say, you in? Come on, you know you want to….

Another thing you should know…Jen was actually potty training while I was at prom. Just goes to show you, silliness transcends generations.

…and so does taffeta.

PS: One of my VERY funny friends is part of a new site that just launched…The Mouthy Housewives. (Don’t even try to ask me who, I’m not going to tell you because having a secret makes me way cooler.) Try not to think of it as another blog, think of it as Dear Abby meets the Mother Of All Snark. Give it a try, ask The Mouthy Housewives a question…just don’t blame me if the answer they give you gets you into a molotav cocktail war with your neighbor…or arrested. Whatever. Just go check it out, ask a question…and don’t blame me for the answer you get back.

I admire the precious data you offer for your articles. I will be able to bookmark your blog and have my children take a look at up right here generally. I am somewhat positive they’re going to be informed a number of new stuff right here than anybody else!

Hi, Neat post. There is an issue along with your website in web explorer, might test this… IE still is the marketplace leader and a good part of other people will miss your excellent writing due to this problem.
