| Last weekend,I was at a pompous,
boring,laahdeedaah corporate soiree
with my husband.The men all looked
like penguins,in black and white,and
the women were all stuffed in tight
black dresses,dripping with diamonds
and smelling of the obligatory spicy
oriental evening fragrance of the
moment.YAWN...Since I've had to
endure this type of thing before,
(hey,it pays the bills),I knew what to expect.But this time I figured,
hell no,if I have to spend another
evening being " charming and
delightful " to people whose only
interest lies in the size of their bank
account,(another mention of the
stock market and I will barf on their
Mahnolos,I swear),then at least I should be comfortable,in a fairly
naughty,if not downright wicked
way.So I showed up clad in ivory
silk corset with no straps,but a
plunging neckline to make up for it,
and a pair of skinny capry cut ivory
suede cigarette pants,and,a pair of
matching ballet slippers.The only
jewelry I had on were my wedding
ring and a pair of platinum teardrop
earrings.That outffit raised a few
eyebrows,but what really took the
cake was my choice for fragrance:
1000. Anyone who thinks of 1000 as
a " buziness endeavour " scent ought to think again. OOOH,baby,
what a rush!!! I had men AND women sniffing me all evening long,
they all wanted to know what it was
and I refused to tell.Only one lady
guessed,and since she had the class
not to tell out loud,but instead
whispered it in my ear,I ended up
spending the evening chatting with her,which was wildly entertaining,
since she,too,seems to share my
passion for perfume.(incidently,I did
tell her about this site,maybe we'll
get to know her better,some day)
When my husband and I got home,
around 3:00 am,he told me that my
fragrance cause him to commit a
few verbal blunders (anyone familiar
with the old freudian slip?...He had a
few),which,luckily had the people
he was talking to laugh uproariously.
More than a few guests were convinced that I was not his wife,
but his girlfriend,and he said :"She's
my wife and my girlfriend." Then at
home he proceeded to prove it by
honoring me like a king would his queen until the sun was way up in the sky.I get the feeling I will always have some very fond
memories associated with 1000.
Wouldn't you?... |
