I'd always joked that, if I wasn't married by the time I turned 30, that I was going to have a "30 Prom" so that we all had an excuse to buy cheesy prom dresses like we had (or, in my case, didn't have) in high school (yep, I wore a little black cocktail dress to both my junior and senior proms...)

Pretty prom-tastic if I do say so myself. Now I need to go to the goth prom next year or something, so I have an excuse to wear it again...
