Dental Prom 2005

The Spring Charity Formal came and went. Dental Prom as we call it, or “Soiree in the Sky” as it was officially named, was the 80th floor of the Aon Center at the Mid-America Club.

I thought the top of the Hancock would be hard to beat, but this place was absolutely beautiful. Seems like every year tries to top the previous. Again, tickets were very hard to get. I thought I would be going stag again this year, but I managed to score a second. Unfortunately for me, my date got last minute Final Four tickets and headed to St. Louis instead of the Lake, so I took the Polski. The whole crew then followed.

You get the idea

Great food, top shelf open bar, superb jazz, and nifty silent auction spread all with one of the best views of the city I’ve seen in a while made it a great evening.

The calm before the storm

Lots of stuff to talk about, too. Aparently, we all have to plan out the next 30 years within the next two months or so, so there was plenty of business to discuss. I managed to come away with some equipment from the silent auction that I can easily turn around this week, so I guess the evening paid for itself! And what would a UIC COD event be without everyone's favorite husband hunter throwing a drink against the wall and storming out at the site of her target speaking with someone else!? One of her better performances in my opinion. I suppose that was almost as entertaining asthe ninja kick a few years ago.

One of the best parts was when we were all back at the RadPad for the traditional late night coffee table o' pizza. A first year who wants TD more than anything stopped by and would not leave. TD, coming off of a rather long on-call shift, was enjoying a well-deserved reprieve with his relatively newly-acquired significant other in his room behind closed doors. Sensing the potential volatile situation, PC took the role of drunken opera singer and secretly passed warnings and instructions via song to TD in Spanish. The light coming from beneath the closed door dimmed shortly thereafter, and the situation dissolved without incident.
