Excited/Nervous

I’m very nervous. I’m going out tonight.

Not on a date, not out hunting for an Alpha Male, just out with some old (male) schoolfriends.

The pressure is immense! I’m annoyed at myself for making such a fuss actually. For some reason I feel the need to look my absolute best, even though I’m not the slightest bit interested in my companions for anything other than conversation.

Is it one of those “reunion” moments, where you just feel you must prove to everyone you have the most successful life? I fall for those terribly, and its very unattractive…. “oh we’ve had Christmases in the Bahamas and Mexico, Oh my husband earns more in a month than some people earn in a year” somehow the “Oh and my marriage failed and I’ve lost all that now” never enters into the conversation. I usually go with “Yes I’m still married, but I’m living with my boyfriend”… God I’m horrible!

I really mustn’t think too much, I must just enjoy myself! The guys I’m going with don’t appeal to me at all so I figured I could have a great night out without worrying about misbehaving.

So… important things!
1) Dress – I have a new dress I bought Thursday, and it looked great in the shop. Its black with white stars on, above knee length and with a buckle belt detail at the front. Failing that, the pink dress will be on standby! Both are sexy, but not in a clingy (which I can’t do!) short, OTT way.
2) Shoes – Oh my! This is always so difficult. If we go pink, its easy… white boots. But the new dress? I have a lovely pair of high black sandals with diamante buckles on (ohhh the buckles would match!) Orrrr… do I wear my black boots. Hmmm, will have to try later!
3) Handbag – VERY important item! Got to be big enough to carry my rubbish but small enough to sit unobtrusively on the table! I do have a smallish black one with stars somewhere, but that might be a bit too “matchy”… I’ll look out for one when shopping today. Bugger… better look for a white one in case I wear the pink dress!
4) Accessories – I always wear the heart/key combination with the pink dress, but I don’t really want to get into the “whats that key for” conversation… because I’ll tell everyone everything! Lol Might have to check what I have and then go shopping!
5) Hair – I hate my hair!!!! I did an overnight hair treatment so it shouldn’t be too fluffy. I’ll straighten this morning and then maybe do a couple of curls tonight.
6) Make up – I have plenty of make up, but feel the need for new mascara and nail polish!
7) Underwear – Oh… a Bridget Jones moment. Only I’m fortunate enough to know nobody will be going anywhere near my undies… I’ll look for something to make me look a bit slimmer! Hehehehe.

Is that everything?

Told you I was obsessed. Keep you updated!
