I hope you're enjoying your weekend. So somebody pointed out that the dude in the photo of you on the plane was a guy from the Walking Dead. I'm not into zombie stuff, though, I watched that show once or twice, but it was too gross for me. After years of seeing real footage of Holocaust atrocities, something like fake zombie stuff just doesn't do a thing for me, except wonder WHY so many people LOVE it. I don't like exploding, bloody heads, I don't like violent movies, I don't like death and killing.
As skeptical as I am about Leonardo DiCaprio, I'd rather go see the movie GATSBY.
So, this is what I plan to wear to go see that movie....my Flapper outfit!
Yes, we attended a kink party that had a 20's theme, so this is what I wore to it last night. It may not be easy to spot in this photo, but I've actually lost about 25 pounds so far. This is the first time I have ever been able to wear this dress, and I've had it in my closet for several years.
Have I mentioned that I was totally born in the wrong decade?! I love dressing up. I also love the silky black gloves, but how the HECK did those women do anything with them on?! I had a heck of a time trying to text on my iPhone.
Pete says, in his best 1920's gangster voice, "Yeah, see, you've got some pretty good GAMS, see?!" Still got more weight to lose, but it's getting easier to do the longer I do it. Just gotta make myself walk on that treadmill more often. It seems to help the process go faster.
So yeah, when we go see Gatsby, that's what I plan to wear. I figure, why the hell not?! I rock that dress, dang it. I'm not too conceited by saying that, am I?! I don't mean to be, but I felt sexy in it. And what do I care what other people think about it? Screw 'em. I am not here to impress other people, I am here to make myself happy....as selfish as that might sound, it's more healthy than worrying about what other people think all the time, in my opinion.
Of course Pete, who does NOT own a zoot suit, wore this....
A white fedora, with a tuxedo t-shirt and sunglasses, and of course, shorts.
His son-in-law wrote a comment on Facebook, "He looks like a Columbian drug lord!" I guess looking kinda close to a gangster of the 20's is something rather cool though.
Ah well, we had a fun time anyway. Lots of people dressed up, mostly women. I couldn't get my hair to do a damned thing, except hang there looking like dog ears. Sigh. Need to get a style and color.
Well, I'm off to the wild blue yonder. Weed whacking, and bags of mulch, here I come. Woooo.
Bye for now.
Love you lots....xoxoxo ---Rebecca, your favorite flap-happy sappy girl in Pittsburgh.
