Stolen - How did you spend NYE 1999?
I went to Fort Lauderdale with my boyfriend (not DH). His boss owned 2 condos on the beach and we stayed in one.
Re: Stolen - How did you spend NYE 1999?
WOW. This brings back memories.
Senior year of UCLA. I was dating the "Love of My Life" for the third time. I begged him to do something. Begged. We never went anywhere. He was into raves and he told me that he knew about one that night, but was not into it.
So I wore...black hot pants and a totally sheer mesh sleeveless top with a band of thick glitter to strategically hide the boobage. I had a vivid purple feather boa. I did fun makeup and slicked my hair back into a bun. I was READY to party. (I was thin in those days.)
He arrived dressed up to go out (Not to a Rave), but sat around like a bump on a log. He said: "Don't your friends have anything going on?" My other friends were out of town for break. So I dragged him downstairs in my building to the apartment I used to live in where the "Aarons" (two of them) now lived.
They were playing a wrestling game on Playstation. FAIL
So I was all whored up with nowhere to go. We ended up going to his place and stopping at 7-11 on the way for some Andre "not-champagne." I think we crossed midnight in the car.
We never called each other again after that.
I didn't even think about what I wore but I do remember. I had black faux leather pants and a sparkly blue shirt that had no sleeves and a little string that tied in the back......WHAT was I thinking......then and now...sheesh.
Somewhere with M I'm sure of that, where though, I do not remember but I'm sure it involved under-age drinking.
With the Ex bf (whose mom emailed me today) We went and saw Billy Idol preform and then RAN 2 miles back to the aprty we were at to catch the count down!
Kirstin + running = No Bueno
Also I remember earlier that night I called my friends on the east coast to make sure they were all still alive, you Y2K stuff
hahah
Oh and I also found pictures of me from that year. Sweet visor in the left one huh? And don't tell me you all don't have that EXACT same pose picture (on the right).
Cute pictures! And yes, I have one with that pose.
Xmas breakup with then-boyfriend led to a very lame NYE. I was out in a park with a friend, drinking gatorade or something like that (he's an alcoholic) and smoking like a chimney, watching the awesome fireworks display the city provided.
Meanwhile, ex-bf was at a cool party with soon-to-be-new-gf, and I know this as he told me he didn't know which one to take. I told him to take her.
That was hot stuff for 1999! Work it, girl.
And I also remember watching Prince on TV and being very excited about it. We all were waiting for that moment ever since he came out with that song.
