A little while later the phone rang again and it was Ricky. He got separated from this friends and was lost. Over around Purdue, there are a lot of one-way streets and he was just totally lost and didn't even know what direction he was headed.

I was trying to tell him where to go and then he just asked...."Mom, will you come get me" and of course I hopped in the van to go let him follow me home.

I was able to make it to him in about 30 minutes or less (drove like I've always told Ricky not to), it should have taken me 45 -50 minutes...and we made it home a little after 2:00 this morning. We talked for a little while about his evening and then at 2:45 AM headed for bed.

Ricky did say he had a great time and danced with quite a few girls. He is so tight with his money that he said the only thing bad about the whole evening was they didn't check tickets. Said if he'd known that....he wouldn't have bought any....LOLOL.

Is that his prom picture? He looks so cute.
