Well, I've been itching to get out of the house this weekend. The last weekend through Wednesday I was visiting family, so no chance to dress up or do anything.
So I've been dressing most every day after work since getting home, and all weekend so far.
I did a few "new" things this week. First, I took the trash out while dressed up. I did this the other day while just in some jeans with a more feminine cut and a women's shirt. Today I took out a bit more garbage in my skirt, pantyhose, boots and a blouse under a sweater vest. Very short hair, no makeup or anything. And heck, I'm 6'4", so it's not like I can blend too well anyway.
My wife and I also went for a drive. We stopped for a drink at a drive through coffee stand and then just cruised around a bit. I think the kid at the coffee stand was thrown off. He kept having to check our order and seemed to be stumbling over his words. I'm not up to the interacting part yet, so I let my wife drive and order.
When we got home I noticed our neighbor down the block (I use the term "block" loosely) was out on her porch using her phone. I think she was watching as I got out of the truck and walked in, but I was just playing casual and walked up to my door, out of sight from her.
I've been thinking about my neighbors lately. We live in a small town, but only moved in just over 2 years back. We don't know anyone outside of a few people I work with, but not too many live in our town anyway.
I've never really interacted with my neighbors, and I don't even know any of their names. I don't have any family in this area, and we mostly just keep to ourselves. So I have been thinking about whether or not I care what my neighbors think.
I want to go out for drinks dressed up, but I'm not sure how well received it would be around here. There are some bars that I would love to go have a few beers at. I'm hoping to move within the next year or two, so maybe I'll wait and go out with a bang. I'm not worried about what people think about me so much as I am about servers being uncomfortable or something.
Well, that's about it for now. Just wanted to share.
