Gasp! I got a last minute invite to the Black Tie gala for The Great Gatsby at the Rep tonight. Which filled me with giddy, clap-my-hands-and-shriek happiness and heart-in-my-stomach dread at the same time.
I don't have any dress shoes that aren't either too casual or too shiny-plastic-six-inches-high-cheap and only good for *one* thing. I had to work at the bar until 2 last night, and bullshit with my boys until at least 3:30. The gala starts at 7 tonight and I don't get off from the coffee shop until 6.
So you'd better believe that I was waiting outside The Rack when they opened at 9:30 this morning. My scooter almost ran out of gas and I still smelled of Jagermeister, but now I have a lovely pair of dress shoes featuring a modest heel and coverage for my monster toes. And now it's all hand-clapping. I can't wait!
