Prom

Trent went to prom last weekend. At Trent's high school, there are nine seniors, and the parent volunteers organizing prom had a meeting to get their thoughts. Prom fell on May 4th. The parents proposed a Star Wars theme. You know – May the fourth be with you. I wasn't in the room, but I'm told that Trent said, "I don't want to look back at my prom twenty years from now and remember it was Star Wars." No one wants their prom disrupted by uninvited Disney lawyers showing up with cease and desist letters. That's how the legally uncomplicated 'Out Of This World' became the theme of this year's prom.

Trent and Lizzie went to last year's – public domain – 'Mad Hatter' themed prom. Trent and Lizzie have been together since Valentines Day 2023. In my memory – which may differ from reality – Trent and Lizzie met in Stardew Valley. Stardew Valley is a pixel art video game about farming. I remember their pixelated avatars bustling about, busy watering crops and picking fruit. Presumably, they also saw each other in person at school.

More than a year later, Lizzie and Trent blasted out of this world into this year's prom. They're a pretty cute couple. Here are Trent and Lizzie!
