Well it was my running clubs Christmas party last night and yeah I know I haven't run in months but hey I'm still a member and plus the tickets were free because it was the clubs 21st birthday so of course I was going.
I bought a lovely dress a few weeks ago for the party and some amazing shoes that I can't stand up in for longer than 10 minutes everywise my legs go from underneath me *lol*. I think I need to start wearing them daily for 10-15 minutes to get used to them (well I need to get used to heels anyway because of broken bones etc have prevented me from wearing heels and I need to build up the strength in my feet again so need to practice wearing them round the house but enough of that) and I also got a lovely black necklace from Next.
I was lounging around all Saturday so started to get ready later than I should of done. I showered and got out and was about to put lotion on when I realised I'd not shaved and there was no way I was going out in a dress without shaving my legs so I had to get wet again so I could shave. Once I'd finished and dried, covered myself in lotion and put my bath robe on I started to faff around on the computer which then put me behind again.
I rushed upstairs with less than an hour to get ready and I knew I wouldn't be ready for when I wanted to. Everything seemed to go to plan at first and I was downstairs ready to get my shoes on and do the last few touches to my outfit but then I couldn't find my shoes. I'd left them downstairs in a box but I couldn't find them and I was looking everywhere. I rushed upstairs thinking I may have taken them up there for some strange reason and literally threw everything everywhere in my room trying to find them and I couldn't find them anywhere so I rushed back down and lifted my jacket up on the sofa and guess what I found??? ... my shoes!!
So I get my shoes on and my coat and then the taxi is here...well a mini bus *lol* So we had room to spread out in hehe. Before I know it we are there so I step out the mini bus just as a big gust of wind blows and you can probably guess what happens....my dress blew up and it wasn't very long so it didn't have too far to blow but luckily I got my hand down just in time for me not to flash my knickers but also luckily I had thick black opaque tights on so they wouldn't of seen my knickers anyway. Two of the members of the club were waiting at the door so I am glad I didn't flash anyone *lol*.
We had to have our ticket taken when we went in and then we put our coats in the clockrooms and omg I've never been anywhere before that had a cloakroom. It was pretty fancy. As I was walking out Madeline came in with 4 others who I don't know and she introduced us.
I then went up to where the party is with my dad and we were passing people my dad knew and he'd stop and talk to me and then finally introduce me after I'd been stood there for a couple of minutes looking like a idiot. Everytime he introduced me they kept saying they'd heard all about me so I was wondering what my dad has been saying about me to these people *lol*. There was lots of people there so lots of introducing going on and I was getting a little bored because as I said my dad would talk to people for ages before introducing me and then wasn't joining me into the conversation which was rude and rather boring to be honest.
I was glad when they announced that we could sit at our tables for the meal. We were at table one with Madeline (who did the seating plan) and the 4 others she introduced me to along with 2 others. Then after about ten minutes waitresses came round with 3 lots of starters and you picked which one you wanted. There was smoked salmon with prawns, soup and a fruit thing and I went for soup which was vegetable soup and very nice.
We were sat chatting while a table at a time were told to get up and get their main course. Basically a table a time went to the end of the room and queued up and then were given a choice of 5 meats and you could have just one or a little bit of all of them or a piece or one or two of them but I went for turkey when it was our tables turn to go up. Then you helped yourself to veg and gravy and other bits. The main course was really nice and we were finished ages before the rest of the room had even been called up to get their food. Next was dessert time, a sexy waiter came round to each of us individually and told us what there was and we picked which one we wanted. There was chocolate and nit cheese cake (which I went for) a fruit pavlova with cream, xmas pud or a cheese board.
Then about 20 minutes after we had that they came out with the coffee and I didn't have the chance to say no to coffee because they had poured it before I realised what was going on *lol*. I shoved three sugars in it and some milk and drank half and left the rest. I don't really like coffee so me drinking half a cup is a big thing for me *lol*.
Once the coffee was over the disco become louder and people started to get up to dance. Madelines kept trying to get me up but there was no way I was getting up until I'd had a few more drinks *lol*. People were coming up to our table a lot and talking to us, the chairman Norma came up and introduced herself to me because we'd never met but I knew who she was because I'd heard a lot about her and me and my dad had been avoiding her all night which says a lot about what we think about her *lol*. She's just taken over from my dad as chairman as he got fed up with being the only man on the committee and plus they always took over from him and it was a nightmare for him trying to be chairman.
Then we went over to talk to Eileen who was in Amsterdam with us and my dad then took over the conversation and basically left me twiddling my thumbs and texting my friend in pure boredom *lol*. Then someone else came over to the table and my dad started to talk to her and joined me in for about 30 seconds so I went to the toilet and listened to them gossiping about Madeline who had won a marathon place in the clubs draw and she'd been boasting all night she was going to win one of the two club places and she did so people thought it was a fix that she got it.
Then back to the table when Sue came over who is another club bitch who I've heard lots about. So I sat checking my hair in my mirror whilst she talked away to my dad then she turned round and told me she wasn't ignoring me but she was!! Then I got lumbered with her as she talked to me like we were best friends. OMG!! My dad went to the bar and stood behind Sue taking the piss out of me because she'd sat down with me and was talking to me like we'd known each other for years and were close friends *lol*. I think she was sat with me for ten minutes and she then asked me to dance and I said later and then said I'd probably keep saying that until I went home *lol*. So she lent across the table to another woman (who's name I'd forgot) and said I wouldn't get up so she said she was going to drag me up *lol*. Then asked what music I like and I said 80s music and Sue asked what 80s and I said most of it especially Bon Jovi. It turns out Sue is a big fan of them and started to talk about how many times she has seen them and I beat her by 1 time hehe and I was telling her about when I saw them in June and had 8th row tickets and then my dad came up behind her pulling faces *lol*. Sue then went to ask the DJ to play Bon Jovi and my dad sat down and was taking the piss saying that Sue is my new best friend hahahaha.
I was sat talking and guess what comes on???? ..... Livin' on a prayer by Bon Jovi!! So I think I shall escape to the toilets haha then Sue comes over and drags me onto the dance floor which has about one other person on and everyone is staring at us which was so bad but then more and more get up which made it better and we danced to that and another 80s song and I had to take my shoes off. I then dragged my dad on for a song before getting my camcorder and filming people dancing and I can't wait to get that on here because it is hilerious.
Not long after I finished filming it was time to get my shoes back on and get ready to leave because our taxi was booked for 1:20am and it was almost time for us to leave. We went to say bye to Sue and Norma when my new best friend invited me into town with her and some of the others and I just looked at me dad in a way to say I'd rather not haha and I said I couldn't and left as soon as I could *lol*. I was pretty tired anyway and my shoes were way too high for the night so I declined and to be honest I didn't want to go out with a bunch of people I'd just met and only had £20 on me so I couldn't really go anyway.
So it was home and the taxi driver has picked us up a few times before so my dad talked his head off on the way home.
I was so glad to get home, I chucked my coat and necklace off and then went upstairs and took everything else off, tired my hair back and got my pink fluffy robe on before coming downstairs and stayed online until 5am before going to bed and putting back to the future II on and finally went to sleep around 7am and slept until 2pm.
I'm so tired today and am going Windmill about 7pm for some food. My dad is at Rovers at the moment so can't go until 7pm.
