Party

Last night Brandon and I went to the police association party sans Colby. It was a strange experience. Everyone was dressed nicely (except a few people who didn't really understand they were supposed to dress up) and the food was really good and fancy-like. There was a TON of alcohol. You'd think that a group of cops would know better than get sloppy drunk, but apparently not. The booze was definately flowing like a river. And there are sharp divisions between the cops - detectives, vice, warrent service and others kept to their groups and didn't do a lot of mingling. It was fun though because I got to dress to impress, we gambled (not our money of course) and lost all of our chips in about 30 minutes, and we got a slow dance in. But then we were tired of people-watching (we determined if they wanted to do a real housewives of Roanoke they could) and crazy raffles (one raffle was to give away booze) so we went home. I don't know if we'll go next year...I guess we'll see.

Oh, and before the party I'd lost a total of 5 pounds!
