although it DID make me feel good that i was hit on by a not bad looking sober coworker last night at the holiday party within about a half hour of my arrival... ;) my hair was curly, pulled back just-so on the sides in lil sparkly clips.. i had my purplish blue dress on, and my roman bondage sandals... i didn't realize i LOOKED roman and 'classic' or 'vintage' until i had it pointed out to me many times ;) i felt beautiful for the first time in a LONG time. i was dressed classic roman in a crowd where everyone was sporting the 'little black dress' or red sparkly dresses. i stuck out. i had coworkers that never give me the time of day during work go out of there way to tell me that i looked wonderful.
i felt like a princess.
i had people do double takes, used to me being here at work, in frumpy, wrinkled clothes and hair yanked back in a sloppy clip, no make up, glasses... to being dressed like a GIRL, contacts in, make up done...
... and i carried my traditional Batz Maru silver lunch pail as my 'dressy purse'. i use it only for special occasions like that. in fact, when i opened it, i found last year's Christmas party invitation.

What a wonderful way to feel. :D I say focus on that feeling all day instead of the period-y, nasty letter-y feelings!
I am suprised you don't feel that way all the time.
women like you command a deeper sense of the word,
with the very way you think and look at life.
thats real beauty.

Sorry about not getting back to you earlier, I have been really sort of rushing around. I am back home for a while to get my minor surgery done, but I will be back in january. uh... other then that I am pretty much not doing anything except reading, sitting on the internet, and watching tv. (oh yeah and I am spending some time at a tibetan temple)
Did those pictures ever develop? I want to get that picture for my LJ!
holllllyyyy FUN!
;)
*blush* and thank you for the compliment *quiet smile*
i adore batz, too (obviously! hee!)
As for me, I'm glad I didn't go, the family didn't get home until 7 and I needed to get ready for bed at 9, I had much more fun talking with my friends online than I would have just observing my folks chat with old friends that knew them before I was born LOL
ah, well.. life dost go onneth.
the next coupla days, though, when i was freeping exhausted, i wasn't so happy i went!
Awww I'm sorry, maybe you can rest up this weekend!
Do you have office wars?
ah the glorious days of rubber band wars!
I try to do that a lot..and it's easy to treat people you don't know as you would like to be treated, but it's harder to do that with people that have done something to you LOL
