The above dress in yellow does nothing for the model in the picture. But change it to blue, and the dress works very well on me. And this is what I wore to night to have dinner with Vicki.
But first....
RQS had come up for a rare start-of-week stay, and we had a great time together. No, we didn't do much of anything, save keep each other company for a few days. While here, I told her of the dress I ordered from Universal Standard with a very deep discount. I won't say how much of a discount I received, but it was enough for me to drop the hammer on buying a new dress when I wasn't planning on buying one.
If I had known that this dress would be available in this color when I decided to buy the first dress, I might have chosen it instead. I like the color, and I may still drop $148 (plus tax and shipping) to buy it if I have some extra money by the end of the month.
Yet, I digress....
RQS thought the first dress looked good on me, and I did too. So I wore it when dropping her off at the station to go home, and to pick Vicki up for dinner tonight - and I got compliments from Vicki as well. I think Vicki was surprised that I arrived at her house a little bit early. This wasn't much of a problem, as we got to the restaurant relatively quickly.
Lefteris Gyro is one of our go-to places when we want Greek food. They serve enough food there to feed an army, and I had enough food left over to be tomorrow's lunch. Although I won't say much about the conversation we had, it seems more likely that she and her husband may be spending their retirement in New York for reasons I won't go into here. This pleases me for one reason - one of my closest friends may stay nearby in retirement, and I won't lose contact with her (as I almost did with WDS when he moved to Florida).
All too soon, I had to drop Vicki off at her house. Hopefully, I'll be able to see her again before my next trip (and possibly introduce her to Vicki #2).
