prom. prom. prom. big deal right? wrong. at least not me anyway.. so annie has this idea, which is let's go to prom as polygamists! i don't know where she thinks of some of these things... actually i do. anyway i decided to not join in on this one until actually someone bought me a ticket and therefore i had no choice. so i figured i might as well just do it. so we got all dressed up, probably the weirdest part was when annie used a braid of her own hair that she had when she chopped it off short and braided it into not only my hair, but all the other wives as well. and the really weird part was that it matched all our hair... sisterhood of the traveling hair type situation. anyway we were off to the prom. as we entered it was like just this lobby type thing where a bunch of people were just hangin out, and as SOON as we walked through the door, eeevery head turned to us and just silence swept them all it was really, like... i've never experienced such a thing. we started to walk up the staircase when a man told us "you don't have to hide" and we informed him that we were just shy by nature, and continued to walk up the stairs. heads turned from every direction, fingers pointing, whispering, i've never been so stared at before in my life. some people hated it, some loved it, some just did not know what to think. i tried to tell them that we were just like everyone else and wanted to enjoy our prom. as the first wife, olive, i was allowed some dancing privileges but mostly that behavior was just inappropriate. finally all the staring just got old and we went and got a birthday cake to celebrate. cause everyone likes cake.
