About a week before the party, Sal and I were searching for a dress for me to wear. We were unsuccessful, so I just decided to wear the same dress I wore to the wedding, though I think the curly hair at the wedding was better, than my straight hair that night. The peacock feather also fell off, so I was off to a great start of the night. Everyone arrived little by little, and before I knew it we were sitting down enjoying cocktails and beers, and the first course - salad. The food was buffet-style, but I have to admit it was delicious, though I only had 1 plate full, unlike Sal who went back for seconds, and maybe even thirds.
We danced when good songs came on, and sat down and chatted when the more slower, older songs came on, or songs we had never even heard of. Needless to say, the DJ wasn't exactly the best, okay he might've been one of the worst DJ's I had ever heard. It was alright though, because we made the night fun.
Though most of the guys were on their phones checking the scores of the football games that were on, because it was playoffs, I talked with one of my friends, that I had met through Sal and his coworkers, that I absolutely adore. Unfortunately she's moving to Georgia with her family, because her hubby has been called for work down there. Some good news though - We found out another friend of ours was pregnant! I couldn't be more happy for her and her husband!
Sal was up for an award, but unfortunately didn't receive one - not this year, but there's always next year! He did win surround sound, one of the raffle prizes though! So we didn't leave empty handed.
We certainly made it a night to remember - leaving to go to Cheeseburger in Paradise, after the DJ played his last song at the party. The party might've been over, but we still had tons of energy!
The night grew colder and darker, and we eventually said our goodbye's. It was more fun than I had expected and I'm glad we went.
Yay, I'm so glad you had fun!
