I wasn't going to go. I had no intention of ever stepping foot into the place. But when I found out that it was the only chance of seeing the girls, I bit the bullet and went to Boogie Nights.
It's honestly not my cup of tea, and of course, like in a lot of situations I was nervous. I feared the worst, and of course after being in there for 30 seconds, a creep grabbed my butt, after being there for an hour a disgusting man was saying disgusting things to me... But all of these things were forgotten when I think back about how much fun I had seeing the girls. Overall it is a pretty cool place. I loved the seventies music, the Jimmy Hendricks and Brett Michaels impersonators, and the light up dance floor was awesome. Half of my wedding party ended up being there, it was so good to see everybody and Jill and I were definitely tearing up the dance floor, until Jill got elbowed in the head... repeatedly, by some old drunk lady. We were missing Mom, Dad, Bert and Dave anyway and wanted to go hang out with them... so we did.
To our surprise a Rod Stewart impersonator took the stage in the casino at 1:00 am. He was fantastic, in his leopard leggings, pink visor, and bright yellow top. I've never sang so hard or danced so much in my life. Jill and I grew up with Mom listening to these songs and we love them probably as much as she does. So. Much. Fun. I wish I had a picture of Jill and I pretending to be Rockettes while "Rod" was singing Hot Legs. We were pretty impressive, I think.
At 4:00 am, after Rod Stewart, taking Mom, Dad, Bert, and Dave back to Boogie Nights so they could see if for themselves, skipping through the parking garage with Amanda, and ordering seven double cheeseburgers at McDonald's, we finally made it home. It was such a fun night. I loved that I got to spend it with the girls and with my family. It was definitely one of my favorite nights in awhile... and my real favorite was re-playing the whole night for Dan, he was really in disbelief of our crazy night out on the town.
