Okay, y’all.

So I thought last year’s prom was weird? I had no idea.

I was told (again) only 2 days before Prom that it was coming up. And (again) I went into “OMG, are you KIDDING me with this last minute stuff?!” mode, and (again) she looked at me like I was nuts.

Me: Whaddya mean it’s no big deal?
Her:Just what I said. God mom, chill.
Me:Where are we gonna get everything in a day and a half?! A dress? Shoes? Alison, this is ridiculous! (deep breath) Okay, okay.
Her:
Me: Alright, at least tell me what the theme is?
Her: Crawfish boil.
Me, post long-pause: Your prom theme is “crawfish boil?”
Her: No. Prom IS a crawfish boil. And it’s casual dress.

So here’s Alison’s classy classy prom photo- she wouldn’t stand still, but it’s what I got.

She wore shorts.

My mother is laughing her ass off at me in heaven, you know- I skipped prom altogether as being too bourgeois or whatever. So karma again bites me in the ass.

Ah well. It’s the only thing she’s done in years that’s saved me money.
