high school parties or how my family decided my fate in teen popularity

i just had a memory of being a teenager and going to parties where i'd be smoking pot and hanging with friends and my stepdad would come pick me up when i wouldn't answer my phone and send my brother louie in to get me. i'd be stoned and all of a sudden see louie and he'd say, dad said let's go. i'd tell him okay, i'll be there in a minute go back outside, but he'd stand there and say DAD SAID NOW and all the cooler older kids would snicker and i'd feel stupid as i walked out to my dad's minivan with everybody watching.
