DWTS/GALA
Okay, we attended the Gala. It was absolutely gorgeous. It took place at West Baden, which has just been renovated which is spectacular. Unless you have actually been there, you don't get it. This place is like something from Italy or France in the middle of Southern Indiana. Just come see us, we'll take you there. The oval ceiling the windows the acoustics were all perfect. The dinner was fillet Mignon and lobster. There was a waiter and bus boy for each table and there were six hundred people attending, so that's a lot of service people. The music was great, and the dance floor was always full. It definitely was a beautiful night.
My issue was that I just watched DWTS and Susan Boyle had on my dress. I normally wouldn't compare myself to her, (although I am not happy at all with my weight at this point in my life), but I do compare myself with Small people Big World. Whatever the name is, I am a freaking Hobbit. I have short legs and little arms, but my other body parts are normal. It really is accentuated when I gain a few pounds.....hence Susan Boyle comes to mind. Not that I am knocking her at all, but she had my freaking dress on!Not Katrrrrrina, or Cheryl, freaking Susan Boyle. So do not be looking for any pictures real soon. Any pictures that were taken , I was at least six inches shorter than anyone else, and I had heels on. I just feel very short and very old and very untalented at this moment in my life. What the hell , are all people of German ancestry tall? These people tower over me.
I had a fabulous time, we danced, we ate , we shmoosed. All was good. There were young , old and in between. I was hoping that Rob and I were in between.
