Persuaded by my roommate and giving into my own morbid(curios)ity, I attended the First Annual Goth Prom at the Saloon. “First Annual” anything makes me giggle, goth makes me grin, and prom makes me run screaming in the other direction. Throw into the mix early next morning uppage for work, obligatory “dress up” including eye-punch makeup, cheesy electro and an any-other-night flaming manbar to approach a general sense of the mayhem. And don’t forget the homemade orchid corsages. And purposely shredding my fishnets on the hot-hot-hot dancefloor. The experience?—excellent. The memories?—will live forever (in a supernatural kinda way). The evidence?—subpar but existing. We were running late so I didn’t get many pictures, and I wasn’t comfortable shooting in the club. I took a slew of me looking all swank and evil… in my shadow-spooky red room… with a Cure poster in the background (if I didn’t rule so much, I’d suck real bad). There’s also some of Anna and Bennett who took home the Most Übergoth Couple trophy, the apparent equivalent to prom king and queen. Hilarious.

Dan and I have a show in Fargo next week:
