Prom!

Howdy Yall!

Prom was absolutely spectacular. The day was long but the night was hot! JK, I just wanted to say that but really it was just a blast.

The long day. I got up at eight to start about getting ready for my day. I showered and made my way to my hair appointent, needed a trimming. After I got home I helped my mother with a few erronds and did a few of my own and then I began to clean the truck since the Mustang wasn't home yet. I started at elleven and did this till one-thirty. Two and half hours, I cleaned her, polished the bumpers and windows, the black weather striping and the tires, I mean, I gave that Sexy Machine (Sexy Lexy being the trucks name) some real old fasion maticulous detailed TLC. It was rough but we got through and it was getting warm out.

So I went in and ate lunch, cold. My sis had just got her Graduated License and who was I to tell her she couldn't take the truck because it was cleaned for prom. So I had her drive me around and do some more erronds to prepare for prom. Pick up the flowers, get some cash, put gas in the truck. Right after I did this I got a hold of Sam (my date) who had called for me. She ask's me if I want a car, it will be clean and gased up and ready to go. Im like well I already have the truck ready, we dont need to take your car. (I thought she ment take har rents luxury car) She told me we could get a Monte Carlo or something like that. I asked from who. She told me that Mr. Mckay, her best freinds dad and the owner of chevy here in town, said we could go over to the lot and get the Monte Carlo. So I go over and he's asks so which car do you want, you can take anything! Im like blown away. It was tough, it came down to the four cars he had lined up, the most unique and best on the lot that were new. I chose between a Jet Black Grand Prix Special Limmited Addition Gt, leather interior, chrome 2.5'' dual exhaust, sun roof and a Fire Red Special Limmited Addition Monte Carlo LXZ, sun roof, 1.75'' dual chrome exhaust. Safe to say I chose the latter, simply because I knew no one would have one. He told me he'd have her cleaned and gased up and I could pick it up at four. Get this, when he gave me the keys there was 46km's on the car! Its brand new!!! Sam loved it, I loved it. Prom was a car show. Holy cow was it awesome for us gents. Soon as I got home though, the cat sprayed the front driver's side wheel so I had to redue that one in a suit.

The evening. I went to pick up Sam at four-thirty, to take some pictures and be at dinner by five. She looked amazing, I was blown away. Sam isn't the girl to dress up often at all, mind you I always knew she was very pretty, but at Prom you help that shine threw right. And Wow. Dinner was awesome, we had reservations with a group of twenty two. It was so much fun, we laughed so much. We had some spare time so we drove around for a bit. It was nice. We couldn't put many kms on the car though. We got to the school and the place was packed, nice cars and dress's everywhere. We wandered around the parking lot, taking pictures and talking with people and eventualy made our way into the overly crowded gym's. Here you take more pics and do the walk of fame, then the rents get kicked out idealy by eight. That didn't happen till almost nine since there were so many students. Then the party started. It was great, the music was a litle way to loud for my headache, but I promised myself a fun night and ignored the pain. I have never had so much fun I dont think. At twelve the prom was over. So we had to go pick up Courtney, Sams best friend and Mr. Mckay's daughter where we would also leave the car. Sadly. So, I drove in the complete opposite direction to get there. Raced and beat a 92 corvette! Boo Yah! and took the car home, got my truck, we both got changed, and the three of us, supposed to be more but whatever, went to BP's. We ate since we were hungry by one. Took Courtney home by two and made our way to where my friends were. They were lazing around (booo) watching a movie. We caught the ending and then a bunch of people went home! It was three, to early for Sam and I. So we went to my house with a few others and hung out, played pool. Everyone left there at five and Sam was tired so I took her home. On the way I noticed that the sun rise had started and imediately thought of the best place to watch it from. I should have just gone there and not asked Sam if she wanted to, but I did ask and she didn't. She regreted that decision right a way. There are other sun rises though, but not nights like those. I went myself after dooing my public duty. (someone had thrown a portable construction ahead sign on the road face down. Imposible to see, many people nearly hit it. I avoided this cattastrophy at first. I did notice it was mangled and coverd in car paint. OUCH!) So I moved the sign back onto the median.

Sun Rise. I made my way to the sea plane base accross the bridge. There I went down right out on a point in the truck where you could look east for a ways down river. It was amazing. The sun rise was half way done but it was still this vibrant pink and there was steam rising off the water about ten feet into the air that just lit up with this beautiful light since the night had cooled off so much. I sat and prayed and just relaxed. It was the perfect ending to an amazing night, Sam should of come, it would have been better, but there are other sun rises...we hope! I felt amazing after that and tired. So I was home and in bed a litle earlyer than other years but it was six or six-thirty.

More about the car and the car lineup at a later date. You wont belive it!

Update: Cat scan results are back and my head is perfect medically.
