Observations...

You know how it is.  When you leave your house looking like a wreck to drop something off at the post office or pick up something at the dollar store, you tend to run into everyone you know.  Well to that point, I've been observing that most people look like a wreck.  It seems like we've given up or something.  Crazy hair, old sweats, flip flops, no make up...basically no effort.  I think about my Dad working on the lawn in the 70's wearing dress pants.  I see pictures of Yankee stadium in the 60's and everyone was dressed up.  Even going to a concert or the movies was something people dressed for. My Mom never left the house without make up on and my Grandmother always wore a dress.   I'm not saying that nobody cares...I'm just saying that less do.   I remember arriving at gigs in the 80's and 90's dressed up and bringing my "cool" stage wear. We all did.  Now it seems there is no difference between the audience in a concert setting (except big shows) and the band or performer.  Is this a bad thing?  I don't know, but today I put on a red dress ,gold platform shoes and put on make up just to go to Lowes to look at refrigerators.  Of course I didn't run into anyone I know, but I did feel pretty good and confident in the event that I did.
