orchestral maneuvers in the dark

wow, i have a lot of trouble spelling the word maneuver. i want it to be more french. [eta: bwah! i looked it up and my instincts were at least as correct as OMD's. orchestral manoeuvres in the dark! d'oh.]

so. this morning i have decided to end my stress and indecision over my birthday party.

::ahem::

it will be an 80s prom. it will be at my house. it will be saturday, march 26 at 8 pm.

everyone is invited, and i expect you to dress! my proms (yes, plural, i went to 4!) were in the early 90s, so if i can figure out what one would wear to an 80s prom, so can you! watch some pretty in pink, make a trip to the local thrift store, get yourself a crimping iron (actually, i have one if you want to borrow it). i'm turning 30 in 80s style, friends, and i need your help.

if you're too far away to come, you can still dress up and send a picture. :)

if you are coming from outside western mass and need some lodging, let me know. i can offer rides to the boston area at an ungodly hour the next morning (thank you, easter sunday).

let's party!

::dorks out::

for the purposes of this announcement, i have borrowed mmm_cake's highly appropriate icon.

every time i minimize firefox and maximize it again, my open tabs copy themselves, doubling and the tripling etc the tabs i have open... what the hell is going on?

omg, liek, another poll!

[Poll #455640]

omg, the most important question and i left it out of my poll!!!

what should the theme song of my prom be?

i assume this is regular, though i suppose i only know that they did it at my high school. for my junior prom, it was pictures of you by the cure (a decision which displays far more taste than i feel like most people in my class actually had) and for my senior prom, it was oh what a night (a far lamer and less surprising choice).

what's a good 30th birthday prom theme? hmm...

ok, that'll be the last prom post. today. ;)

and yes, antheia! send me that playlist! :)
