speaking of feb club

speaking of feb club (which i have not been attending with any frequency), i would just like to draw your attention to what was the best idea of my feb club, rivalling lexi's brilliant idea. and i can't take any credit for the idea, but the gist is this--there was no edward 40hands theme this year. i mean, this is another reason that this year's feb club paled in comparison to past feb clubs. sure, try out new themes and have random fun ones, but give the people what they want! no edward 40hands?!?! no 80s party?!?!! oh don't even get me started.

anyways, back when i posed the idea of wearing the dinosaur to every party, jared decided he wanted to be edward 40hands for every party. now let's just say that i did not want to be upstaged by hanging out with some guy with 40s attached to his hands at every party. ix-nay on that idea-hay. but that didn't mean we couldn't find an appropriate night for this brilliant idea.

enter TOGA 40HANDS! brilliant!

well, only it turned out to be not so brilliant. fine for me, whose toga ran no risk of falling off. but if you're wearing a toga that may fall down every time you try to walk thru a crowd of people on the dance floor, revealing your ass for all to see, well maybe you shouldn't have 40s strapped to your hands that same night. especially if you don't actually have any idea how to tie a toga. just in hindsight.

essentially, the first hour and a half of my night went like this--duct tape 40s to hands. go to dance floor. notice that someone's toga has fallen down to his knees, after he insisted on not wearing real shorts under it. shuttle said someone off to other room. wiggle right hand out of layers of duct tape. revel in the fact that you attended a decade of latin conventions and only need one hand to tie a very bona fide toga. finagle hand back into duct tape and 40. ease thru crowd back to other room onto the dance floor. notice that someone's toga has fallen down to his knees....well you get the point. but it was good times.
