gotta work for a few days so I had to put my rope up. The guys are giving me a hard time about my hat and boots. I told them I was putting in for a cowboy uniform hat. They would love that.

Note to self: keep off of the computer while on a date. Disconnect the phone if at my house. Tell ex that I am out of town for two weeks. Any other things that I should worry about? Oh, park truck on next block, turnout lights, light candles shut blinds, keep plenty of wine and finger food handy. oops almost forgot, take bath if date is on Saturday night. Did I forget anything else.

ok, after reading all of these fashion tips it is time for me to go shopping. I do need new clothes but I wanted to wait until I lost somemore weight. I have 20 lbs to go till I will be happy. Question, should I wait or go ahead and buy new clothes.

You are starting to sound like a woman, Ewker!

Just buy SOME clothes for now and then buy more when you lose the weight.

Depends if you want a date now or when you lose the 20 pounds?

hey scorchy, I haven't bought clothes in over two yrs and I gave away all of my old clothes that would fit now. I am wearing the clothes I wore before I lost all the weight. I just hate to shop, esp this time of year.

The cleavage is peeling fiercely, but the date was fantastic! He is so stinkin' cute. A total doll face all night. He even remembered that I like the words "doll face" and refered to me as such!!! My outfit was awesome and he complimented me on it and told me he thought it was sweet that I took all the effort on the tan and then burned. LOL!

Two cute comments he made: "You make me feel all junior high." Oooooh! I make him nervous and sweaty.

"You are adorable and sexy and I like hanging out w/ you." Ooooooh! He thinks I'm hot and fun to chill w/.

Funny thing he said: "You're a buttface." 'Cause I made out w/ him and then told him he wasn't gettin' any and had to go home now. LOL! He was joking of course.

So, Newergirl spent the night w/ my sister and Mommy had a good night out. Good wkend. Damn. I can't wait to see him again. What am I going to wear?

Dude gets many points for complimenting you on your outfit. Take note guys!

So glad you had a great time Newgirl

Ewker - shop after Christmas clearance sales for a couple of good basics that will get you through that period of time.

Ewker, I have reason to believe... lol... that clothes kinda hang on you right now and you could maybe use some new ones. Tell the appropriate people so they can get you some Christmas gifts.

Ewker: Two words for clothes shopping

Lands End

Reasonable prices, sufficient selection, great customer service even if Sears owns them. Get the catalog, order enough to find your sizes for future reference, send the rest back, then, if they don't have it, you don't need it.

oooh lee, both those outfits you described sound verrryyy nice - impressed me! :)

glad to hear you date was so much fun newgirl! Hope the fun continues!

Ewker I thought you'd lost weight in those pictures of yours...you look great! what are ya doing?

At my office party Friday night, I scoped out what the guys were wearing...mostly t-shirts with flannel or other button shirts. One t-shirted guy with fur poking out the top (way sexy) and one turtleneck - on the biggest fake in the office. Clothes matched the personalities mostly.

dhutch, I have always complimeted a woman on the way she dresses. I have even been known to tell a woman passing by me in a store that she smells good, it makes her feel good about herself if a stranger notices.
Lately I have been noticing that I am smiling more than I use to and have noticed that females are returning the smiles.
Now if I can quit being so shy and talk to them.


we will see about you going shopping with me ;)
crowds aren't bad during the week

Michigan is going to be fun...wooohoo

Ewker was looking pretty slim in September. Must be thinner now. Keep it up Ewker, looking good man.

Maybe Nowslimmer will let you borrow his trailname? Or maybe Nowthinner will work?

dhutch, the t-neck guy is actually very furry (even furry knuckles) and is considered a very nice looking guy. But get to know him, and he's such a...fake is the only thing I can come up with. Married to a super nice, super smart woman too.
Personality adds or substracts from looks to a huge degree.
