No, we stayed home. Here's what happened, since you asked, lol.
Just as I was about to get ready, the phone rang and it was an old friend of hub's from when he was in Korea, serving his 2 years following ROTC. We hadn't been in touch with him for about 15 years. That was distracting enough and long enough that it became too late to even consider heading back into downtown. So we barbecued a pork tenderloin and watched DWTS.
Many years ago, there was a man with the same name as my husband's that llived around the corner from us. My husband is known as "Ted" but that's not his real given name. It was the name of the other man, however, and he was a BAD man, really bad. I started to get phone calls that were scary enough that I called the police. (These calls were intended to frighten the bad guy's wife.) When we moved, my husband decided to list our number in the phone book under his initials and not include "Ted", and forgot altogether about letting far away friends know how to reach us. It was a fluke that the fellow who called last night actually found us at all. But it got me out of that party!

wow you have the most interesting stories! So did you ever find out more about the bad Ted? Did he move?
We don't know what happened to him, but the kind of "business" he was running likely led him to prison, at least I hope so. Seems he owned a busy little porn shop with some "activities" on the side. At least that's what the police told us, so I assume they were on his trail. Bad era.
