So, at work, I've been trying to popularize Dress-up Wednesday. It's like Casual Friday except for tee-shirt tech companies where ties are suspect. I am currently the only participant, but it gives me an excuse to wear ties and suspenders once a week. (Not that I can't other days, but people are getting used to Dress-up Wednesday.)

Today I wore a dress. A long sundress, with a keyhole that shows my back. The fabric is lush green-red-yellow tropical flowers on a black background.

My boss came in and commented on my lack of tie. I stood up for the full effect, and said, "It's Femmme Dress-up Wednesday."

My boss nodded. "It looks nice!"

An older woman from down the cube row heard this and called out, "Okay, if you're commenting on her clothes, then I will too. You look great."

Preening. Preening now.

Given that I stole it from you, I should hope so!

Lacking photographic evidence, I feel morally compelled to question the authenticity of this report.

i believe you.

But would also love to see a piccie poo. Where did you get such a glorious dress? Remembering your glamour whilst wearing leopard print on the lawn, golden hair flowing all around in that album cover way.

and

"I would just like to say that it is myyyyyyy conviction,
that long hair and other flamboyant aaaaaaaffectations . . ."

This week was dress-up Tuesday for me. I wore a dress for the first time in 3 years (or thereabouts). I couldn't shake the feeling that I'd forgotten to put on pants.

Silly human, you are beautiful no matter what gender or garb you are wearing. So there. NYAH!


...Photos not necessary, but would be much enjoyed...


PS: Break between quarters is 20-29 June.


PPS: My fabulous former neighbour and always friend Mother Teresa Nervina is staging a reunion of the Original Seattle Sisters on the evening of Sunday, 21 June at the Broadway Grill. Would you be interested in attending a joyfully campy social evening with a bunch of drag nuns? Because he actually took the time to find out when school was out so's I could attend, I'm going to be there. };>
