Breaking Rich Lesbian Hearts

July 26, 2007

‘Member the green high heel sandal identity crisis of aught-6? Well, I’m back there again, only with a little less identity crisis. Look Ma, I’m ~~selling out~~ growing up!

Tonight is the big gay fundraiser. Lots of gay. Lots of money. And I’m ready to woo the rich ladies and leave them heartbroken at the end of the night. [that was for Wifey's benefit. Hi Wifey! ]

In 3 inch heels, I’m gigantic, and thanks to blogtographer Danielle, I present evidence here for all to see. I’m sorry, but there will be no cleavage shots this year. My poor freckly Irish chest is fighting off a wee sunburn.

And a close up of the shirt. [tis Banana. let us never again discuss the ridiculous amount of money I spent on one effing shirt. nor shall we discuss the double-chin or my inability to crop photos from my work computer.]

And the shoes, which actually match the shirt. [Marshall's $20! Now that's more like it.]

As my thanks to Danielle for being my faithful blogtographer, I’m posting a request to anyone who graduated from a 4-year college in the U.S. to go help Danielle with a project. It’s a quick and painless survey that qualifies you for a knitting-related prize if you leave a comment here.

Another request, if I may … can you think good strong money thoughts tonight? Life, icky life and some really icky life interfered with the planning of the fundraiser this year, but I’m still hopeful that we’ll raise some money for the organization. Chant with me now? Money, money, money. Charity. charity. charity. Philanthropy. philanthropy. philanthropy. Thanks.

If we do well, I might have knitting to share tomorrow …

ETA: Further proof that Danielle rocks — she recreated last year’s good luck card and slid a plain manilla folder across my desk with this inside:

Oh yes, the joy of fundraising humor. We’re a funny breed.

You look good in green … which, I think, is the perfect color to wear to a fundraising event!

Good luck tonight ……

Wow, you look phenomenal! I’m sure you’ll rake ‘em in! [the dollars, not the rich... though that is a great shirt ]

Good luck!! (Not that you need it, since you are clearly hotness personified).
11. nina | July 27, 2007 at 10:11 am

hey hot stuff,

You and Danielle BOTH crack me up.

Hope you raised lots of bucks! And didn’t get any blisters from the new shoes! (I hate that.)
13. maryse | July 27, 2007 at 11:28 am

hey how did it go? with all of that green, you should have raised lots of green.

those shoes are madness. i love ‘em.
14. pamela wynne | July 27, 2007 at 3:15 pm

Hope it went well — and I have a feeling it did, because that shirt is hot hot hot!
15. Erin | July 27, 2007 at 7:44 pm

I love the shoes. By the way interesting survey
16. PainterWoman | July 27, 2007 at 9:41 pm

If you LIKE the blouse, it wasn’t too expensive! Your happy freckled, sun-burned chest deserves every silken ruffle you found. AND you’re going to look great in the trousers with it.
YGG.
Remember not to bid on anything if YOU’VE had too much to drink.
BTDT.
