If I Only Were a Goth: house party

My first teen house party...

...and I'm not a teen. Yes, it's true ladies and gents, I was a bit of a good girl during my youth and so I never attended any of these wild, out of control house parties with alcohol to spare and even more willing sexual partners to be had. However, I was fortunate(?) enough to attend my friend Michael's band, Sludgemander's EP launch on the weekend just gone and it gave me a real insight into just what I was NOT missing out on during my teens :P

Yes everyone was shit-faced, in the air hung an unmistakable hint of weed and there were people making out practically on top of me. I felt like an old granny, sitting on my little chair with my other 20-something year old friends. Except, they were generally laughing, whilst I tended to be scowling disapprovingly. My bad mood may also have been related to the fact that I had been sick the previous 4 days and was still on meds for that and the fact that I'm trying to cut down on my drinking, so I was unbelievably sober.

Anyway, I still did manage to have a reasonably good time with my friends and Gracie brought her new camera along to photograph the band and so we got a few cool shots of ourselves I thought I might share. It was also a bit of a milestone because I wasn't wearing any eye make up! Oh and nevermind my septum horseshoe missing one of the balls...Yeah I need to get a new one...
