Me. Circa 1992. My first prom. Had to go as a date of a kid in my class who was an escort for the Grand March that evening. He left to go drinking with his buddies. And I had to figure out how to tell my mom that his anti-freeze leaked in his car and melted my dyed-to-match shoes.

But before he ditched me for the drinky, I remember dancing to two songs quite clearly:

"I Still Think About You" - Danger Danger
"Show Me Heaven" - from the Days of Thunder soundtrack (and still love that song)


The guy I went with later (our senior year, I think?) shot a coyote and stuffed it's tanned head in my locker. Boys. When they like you, they do some strange ass shit ...
