Prom!!!!

[xp_rogue]

As you all know, prom is coming in a little over two weeks on May 5th. In honor of Cinco de Mayo, the theme will...well, deal with the other side of that conflict. I hope y'all enjoy the C'est Si Bon theme as we bring a little bit of Paris to y'all for a night.

So far I have the following people signed up as chaperones:
Myself (duh)
Dani
Angelo
Lorna
Haller
Garrison (you don't remember signing up? consider this payback for the field trip) Bah, excuses excuses

ADDED: Doug, Marie-Ange, Jean, Scott

Are there any other victims volunters? Remember, even adults don't have to volunteer to chaperone to attend, but it is appreciated :)

as always, food is my baliwick.

I've already got an appropriate menu begun, so let me know what you want. (yes, there will be sopapillas)

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

You're doing the food? Really?

Excuse me, I think I need to throw a party of one over here. I actually don't have to cook for a school event!

[x-mirage.livejournal.com]

there is such a thing as catering, ms manolo blahnik. I have learned something pretending ot be culture while I was here.

(really, I'm cooking)

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Ugh, caterers. They're such a pain.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Because you actively go out of your way to make them crazy...

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

That is slander! I do nothing of the sort.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

You do, I've seen you.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Slander! Libel! Lies!

I told that girl to call me back. And she didn't. So I called her.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Seven times.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Well, I kept getting her machine!

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Because she wasn't in the office, she was out scouring the whole and natural food stores and co-ops in the tri-state area to fill your order.

So you hunted down her unlisted cell number.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Her assistant gave it to me.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure 'gave' is how he would have described it. Possible 'sacrificed his boss' or 'threw it in your direction as he ran' or 'cowered behind a slip of paper and the knowledge that he wasn't your prime target'. If I remember right, Jamie took pity on him and hid him in the ballroom until you'd moved on.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Now you're out and out just making things up. I was perfectly charming to him.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

I am, yes, but the funny thing is that it's fully believable to anyone who's ever seen you deal with caterers.

I mean, she went and got caller ID just so she could avoid calls from the mansion after that.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

I know. I had to start calling her from different phones.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Now you're just proving my point for me. :D

My mother was trying to plan Scott's and my wedding and called me once, asking why all of the caterers in Westchester were refusing to work at the mansion and she was going to have to bring someone in from Fairfield or Putnam.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

More lies!

Besides, as much as she avoids me, Heather loves the tips she gets so she'd never turn down business.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

So not. I spent forty minutes on the phone with my mother over that one, which is why I'm giving you hell.

Although, in retrospect, my mother may have been her own reason why they wouldn't work for her. That or they took the facts "over bearing mother calling instead of bride" and "located at Xavier's" and put two and two together to get "RUN!"

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

I'm going to bet the second was more likely.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Combination of factors, I'm sure.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

I've met your mother. I think she's more at fault than I am.

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

Shocking thought. She's perfectly delightful for a fire breathing demon beast.

(No, I totally didn't get called last night. Not at all. What makes you think that grand children was the topic of conversation for twenty-five minutes?)

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Did she say mean things about your biological clock again? Do you need some of Ororo's icky brownies?

[x-jeangrey.livejournal.com]

I'll pass on the cherry-brownies, thanks. I forbid you to do special baking for me, but if you've got anything lying about I won't say 'no'. Except the cherry-brownies.

You'd think the twins would be enough for her as far as grand children went. My sister was supposed to have saved me by providing her with both boy and girl in one fel swoop. But noooooo.
