At least thats what was thisclose from passing over this smart-ass -Purr-lip-glassed-lips as the President of the PTA and the Chair person for recruiting of the Junior League were fighting over who would court me.
For starters, I suck at saying no.
But honestly, what would you say when asked to attend the Annual Luncheon with Authors? This shindig is one where I am sure my knowledge of flatware and which fork to use will be analyzed.(thank God for
Secondly, when your PTA throws down the way this one did with this Event-hold onto your Burberry purses Mommies! These ladies are FO REAL. I am out of words for how freaking show stopping this was. Not your average Cake Walk and door to door School Mugs fundraiser. No Way! Full out entertainment from the Understudies of Chicago to preform All That Jazz, prizes/giveaways/raffles for shopping sprees to Tiffany and Co, goodie bags from Coach, and enough Vera Bradley bags to choke your Granny. Of course, stuff for your husbands and kids, like season tickets for the Yankees, lunch with Derek Jeter(godamned if I didn't try for this one!!!!) tickets to Conan and about 35K in Broadway shows.
$80 in lottery and I walked home empty handed in my 5 inch heels.....
Well, truth be told-I am a joiner. But not just a join and do as I am told, I have a tendency to run for control. So my parting words were, I may not win a damn thing-so next year I will just settle for running the fuckin' event.
