Yeah, I get to FINALLY bring my daughter's prom gown home after WEEKS at the seamstress's store.




Bonus Question:
In Honor of Star Wars Day

Not me.

NONE. I'm not into Star Wars...

Did you first see them in a theater or on DVD

N/A



Extra Credit Question:


When does school end for the year in your City or Town?

June 16 or something like that...3rd week of June, for a fact. But, my daughter is a senior, so she'll be getting out before the rest of the underclassmen.

Back when you were in school, did you go back before or after Labor Day ?

AFTER Labor Day, which always made more SENSE. Nowadays, they go back like that Thursday before Labor Day, which is dumb...


Just for Fun:

Hmmm, I don't think anything could use it right now...I had to use it on the lock on my front door a few years ago. The lock kept getting stuck.

What was the last "Adult Beverage" you enjoyed?

A beer. Yeungling (sp?) to be exact.
