Will.I.Am ... Charmed, I'm Sure

Last night was a memorable evening for a couple of reasons:

1. I took my 12-year-old son to his first concert, that being the Black Eyed Peas, and not only did he get an amazing show, sitting suite style (his snobby preference), he also got to see a surprise performance by Kid Rock. For a first show, it set the bar really, really high. I also am currently rated Coolest Mom. Ever.

2. After the concert, I drove my son home so he could get to bed, then went back out to the Black Eyed Peas after party at Clutch Cargo in Pontiac. (Really thought about getting into the ol' jammies and calling it a night, but the Peas were supposed to turn out for this party, so I convinced myself to take advantage of it.) Well, they turned out, minus Fergie. The Dude Peas were beyond awesome, with Apl.de.ap being a tad on the shy side, Taboo being quite friendly, and Will.I.Am being a total charmer. I finally left the party at 1:30 a.m., and knew I was going to pay for it in the morning (I was up at 7:30 a.m. Ouch.) but it was totally worth it:

I would like to state for the record that I have this stupid look on my face because Will.I.Am was dishing out some flirty teasing, and apparently, I eat that shit up. Otherwise, I try to be photographed with some semblance of control:
See? I am the epitome of cool when you barely speak to me.
