Wore: a black sequined skirt with an off-the-shoulder black blouse and heels
Applied: some shimmery body powder
Ate: from the all-you-can-eat buffet, but really just enough so we didn't get sick
Drank: champagne of course, plus amaretto sours and tequila shots
Kissed: a boy
Fell asleep by: 3 am

Wore: my husband's old fraternity shirt and a pair of running shorts
Applied: an anti-aging cream I got as a free sample 3 years ago and just found in the bottom of a drawer. It smelled like it had aged a bit itself.

Drank: decaf of course (I did add a bit of amaretto for old times sake) and a shot of Nyquil
Kissed: a boy (as well as a sweet baby girl goodnight)
Fell asleep by: 10:30
