PRACTICE RUN

I have officially chosen my date of departure.  Monday, June 25, 2012.  I'm starting to get excited AND nervous.  I decided to take a couple of practice runs. NO I didn't actually RUN..but I did get up early and drive 150 miles in 100 degrees to attend a blues festival.  I packed my dietary lunch, my extra wide lawn chair and a great attitude.  Despite the 100 degree's weather and me wearing stretch jeans it was a fantastic time.  Those that know me KNOW I'm an extrovert, but I was able to sit and be the observer.  I didn't even talk to the couples to my right, right, front, back, side, wedged between other couples!  I admit that there were a LOT of couples!  A 50 year old, plus size, divorced lady (albeit GORGEOUS) wasn't successful at finding that lone king of spades.   I did, however, receive a couple of cleavage glimpses.  Some men, some woman.  Flattered by both!  Maybe it was the glare from the ocean of sweat that had accumulated there and they wanted to dive in!
