Looking through my phone in hopes of doing a Waste Not Want Not Wednesday blog post, I realized I never used the pictures taken at the Elks Lodge the day a few of us wore our Minnie Mouse ears. Bonnie, the friend who bestowed the ears upon us, had brought some snacks, and Jack made ice cream drinks. A number of members showed up for the ice cream drinks without the ears, although Bonnie did bring an older pair of ears she happened to have, in case anybody wanted to wear them.
I thought I looked cute.
I had just purchased the polka-dot skirt at a thrift store that afternoon. The shirt I had purchased for the second performance of A Revolutionary Murder, my most recent murder mystery. The socks, shoes, pearls, and purse were already part of my wardrobe. I guess it’s the theatre geek in me that loves to get dressed up at any excuse.
I think we all looked cute.
And here are me, Michele, and Bonnie, the three Minnies of the day. We enjoyed the drinks and the company.
Even Minnie likes to put her feet up.
I told everybody I was going to be Maxie Mouse, Minnie’s more fabulous cousin for Halloween, but that means I have to find a really flashy outfit to go with my ears. Oh, you think I probably already have some glitter in my closet? It could be!
At any rate, this must do for my Wednesday blog post. This morning I wrote my article about the informational meeting I attended in Herkimer last night, so I have performed some writerly chores today. However, I must get back to work on the next murder mystery. And there is that novel I told people I was going to write. I’d better stop mousing around and have at it!
