The MisShapes Prom Party

In the middle of June the MisShapes kids decided to throw a prom-themed party. We all put on gay little outfits and headed on over. Woo!

Amber, Fatty, Vin, Aya and Kat all came over to my apartment and we had ourselves a few drinks and shot the shit - and then when it got late enough to avoid the crowds, we started walking west. Here's Amber (looking like a lil' Disney cartoon) and the Fatty.

Dennis took out a pin and we set out to see if my fancy camera was fast enough to capture a balloon being popped.

Almost! See the little piece of balloon over towards the right edge of the photo? Neat, right?

I didn't have a real bowtie (or a real dress shirt, if we're being honest) so I went with an old prom stand-by and just drew a bow tie on a t-shirt with marker. From a few feet away, it almost looked real!

Hey look it's Giorgio and Gianguido! The two guys visiting from Italy that Fatty and I met playing frisbee in the park! We invited them to the prom and they came! (The even got dressed up!) It's nice! I like!

A retardedly wasted Geordon got behind the bar and started pouring us shots of vodka.

After two free rounds, he told me I was going to have to "earn" the third round. "Uh, how do I have to do that?" (nervous laughter).

Turns out I had to let him kiss me (but hey he didn't saying anything about me having to kiss him back! Yay, loopholes). So I stood totally frozen with my mouth (and eyes, apparently) wide-open while he frenched me. Hahaha. I look shell-shocked.

But hey, when it comes to getting girls dressed in naughty outfits more free drinks, sometime you gotta do what you gotta do. Meanwhile, on the other side of the dancefloor...

Bonus points to Beth for managing to lick my neck and not even have me notice when I was taking this picture.

Kissing a boy might have seemed a little steep before, but when the girls all start touching each other's boobies...

Cat ended up getting so hot that Meredith had to augment her lil' dress with some reflective heat shielding.

Not as scandalous as my fucking "got kicked in the neck" hickey, though. Grody. A litte after four, we hopped a cab and called it a night. I ended up losing one of my cameras on the taxi ride home (it fell out of my pants pocket). I figured it gone forever and went out and bought a new one the next day. A few weeks later, I got a call from a guy - his son had found my camera near the curb by their apartment and when he opened it up, found my cell number written on the memory card inside! I gave the kid $40 bucks for finding it and then gave it to Grant (since I'd already bought a new one).

Here are the two pics the kid who found it took before the batteries died.

Crazy, right?
