(Funny thing is I do actually own one...)<br /><br />I have tried a couple of times to leave comments here but the 'system' wouldn't let me, so knowing that it was nothing personal I decided to bide my time and have a quiet beverage or two and return. Good to see you and brother Toad have managed to keep the party going without me. I love that red dress, I have a few in my collection of clothing and can attest to red's vivaciousness at parties.

Is that the word you were looking for? Braid? As for a braid over one's shoulder being a revived fashion statement...I'm not sure if the window model was meant to be iconic or ironic. But I, for one, think a braid over one's shoulder is lovely, and on you, dear Roxana, even more so.Lynne with an ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00320166770541319601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691575624480469934.post-13322253619610969972010-12-14T17:20:13.515-04:002010-12-14T17:20:13.515-04:00i smiled because i recognized myself at parties (n...i smiled because i recognized myself at parties (not that i can remember the last time i attended one! :-)<br /><br />i like her hair, i sometimes do the same, how is this called in english (i can't remember right now) - but i had no idea it is considered to be fashionable again.Roxanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05650840495095863057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691575624480469934.post-90156516368808231362010-12-12T19:41:24.371-04:002010-12-12T19:41:24.371-04:00BrOwen,

Reminds me of that picture of the mysterious animal head in someone's driveway I once sent you...I hope it wasn't me who started you down this questionable video path. And I also find it a little odd that you whisper the video link in the same breath as mentioning standing uncomfortably by the food table with me...I need another moose head, I think. Oh look, doesn't the Saj look marvellous with that Viking helmet on her head! <br /><br /><br />"People say I'm crazy <br />I got diamonds on the soles of my shoes <br />Well that's one way to lose <br />These walking blues"<br /><br />But man, they're murder on the hardwood floors. <br /><br />Parties...low key or off key...the only way.

We drank a fair amount of Molson Golden too... :-)<br /><br />2. Toad eyes are always equipped with x-ray vision ! I have to be able to see under the straightjackets to make sure no one is concealing any dangerous weapons there...<br /><br />3. Oh, so she's doing her eye make up ?!? Actually, the first thought I had is that she might be rehearsing in the mirror in preparation for making a sequel to this video :<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1l9r60oH8g<br /><br />4. Of course I love the diamonds on your shoes, soles, soul, uppers, heels, whatever, what I meant, but it didn't come across right I think, it that I'd be at the food table with you, wishing we were both somewhere else, but together elsewhere, like at a nearby bar with the Saj, rather than at some boring party where we weren't enjoying ourselves... I'm not a big party guy, unless it's a very low-key affair... <br /><br />And if you have a few too many diamonds, you can toss a few out on the floor, I'll pick them up with my teeth, gotta get this house paid off somehow !<br /><br />5.

Maybe you could get a new job at airport security, screening the passengers.<br /><br />I'm guessing La Grenouille is not a lady who wears a lot of make-up or you would surely recognize the universal hand sign for applying eye-makeup, not blowing one's nose. You could be forgiven for thinking the young lady might be wiping away tears...though more likely from jabbing the mascara wand into her eyeball. I was actually outside the window, slightly below it, looking in at floor level, trying to be inconspicuous. <br /><br />Saj is probably in her closet, loudly lamenting, "I've got ought to wear!" But she'll eventually come strutting in, looking smashing, if not quite yet smashed.<br /><br />What do you mean you'll be at the food table with me wishing you were somewhere else? Am I that boring?!

I thought I heard some bottles clinking !<br /><br />And gazing at that red dress long enough, I thought I just caught a glimpse of a bit of décolleté, not that one would ever come here looking for that... no, it just sort of leapt off the page at me.<br /><br />As for the interior view in normal and photoshopped versions, in both it looks exactly like a shop attendant blowing her nose in front of a mirror... is she maybe crying because she found out that you'd bought the dress before she could ? Or because she wasn't invited to the party ? Or maybe she isn't crying and blowing her nose at all, but she's got her hand up to keep from breaking out laughing at the woman leaning in the door taking pictures ???<br /><br />Now, all this typing is making me thirsty ! Where's that Moosehead ???<br />And where's Saj ???<br /><br />PS have a great time at the party...

Oftimes the imagining is far preferable to the doing.<br /><br />I've accepted a party invitation for tomorrow night and I know that at 7 p.m. I'm going to be standing in my closet loudly lamenting, "I've got nothing to wear!" And once I get to the party, I'll find myself gripping my wine glass a little too tightly, hovering by the food table with a fixed smile on my face, feeling horrendously socially awkward, and wondering what on earth I'm doing there. I will be so relieved to get home and into my pj's!
