Inside My Head: It's normally a pretty scary place to be, but it does promise to be quite amusing and sometimes even funny...

Endless Summer Nights with Jazz and Pizazz

Those were the themes of Chiles and Leon prom (respectively).

Well, Prom was great fun. It worked out well because it turns out that one of my really good friends Amanda went to prom with one of Daniel's really good friends Matt. They were going to both Chiles and Leon proms too, so it worked out nicely. I had someone I knew at Chiles prom (Amy was there too and I knew her, but someone else) and Daniel had someone he knew at my prom.
My friend Katie and I turned out to have the same dress. I'm still not really sure how we didn't figure it out beforehand. She said she had an orange dress and I said I had a peach dress. So, we both ended up wearing the same peachy-orangy dress. It was actually quite amusing.
Everyone kept telling Daniel "Nice pink cummerbund and tie" and he had to keep explaining that it was "coral reef" to match my dress. They did kind of look pink though. Especially in the light we were in.
We took quite a few pictures. I never actually got any of me and Daniel dancing or anything. The end kind of snuck up on me. I didn't hear the DJ say that it was the last song, so when he was like "Thanks for coming, drive safely home." I was like "Oh, it's over." It actually went by pretty quickly, especially after we got to Leon's prom. Overall, we had a great time. We took our time at dinner at Steak and Shake and even though we got to Chiles prom at like 8:30 there was still practically no one there. Once things finally really got moving, we were leaving for Leon prom. After we left Leon's we went to Daniel's friend Steven Robert's house to hang out at his after-prom party for a while. We played some ping-pong and foosball and then headed home. I didn't get home till a little after 2 and then didn't get to bed till like 3 because my mom wanted to hear about it and stuff. Needless to say, I didn't go to church this morning. I actually ended up sleeping until 1:45 in the afternoon. I really didn't mean to sleep that long, but oh well.

Ummm...about that cheesy love song, Jake. I just realized that the senior baccalaureate at Thomasville Road Baptist Church is on Sunday, during youth, and my mom says that I have to go. So, I'm really sorry, but I think you have to find another cheesy love song partner. I am so bummed. :-(

And yes, Jake, you do want to go to prom next year. Daniel and I kept talking about how it would have been fun to have you there, so you should definitely go next year. Oh, and be proud of Daniel, he actually danced. As much as he likes to say that he can't and that he feels like you when he does, he danced just fine. We might have to arrange to go with you next year so you can see him.
