Friday Flash 55 feeling bedraggled before dinner out
Not looking one's best
Going Out To Dinner Straight From Work (Not Ready)
As a child of the sixties, a child
of a child of the Depression, it is hard
to feel deserving of a dinner at
a fancy restaurant, even if
paying for it,
without running home first
for a shower,
freshly-washed hair. Eating
out requires
clean hair, at least until
a first glass of wine.
(I’m going to tell it to the G-man. AND while you’re at it, check out NOSE DIVE , comic novel bargain on KINDLE and AMAZON.)

I have a feeling that you still looked terrific!
But I do know what you mean
Loved your late 55 MDD
Of course you know that you are welcomed and appreciated at any time
Thanks for playing, and have a Kick Ass Week End

After the first glass of wine you can let your clean hair down, I guess?

Ha! I took my friends out! But it was a matter of reciprocity. And it was fine! K.

Oh yes, clean hair is a must! It’s why dry shampoo was invented! Nice 55!

Ah! I haven’t tried that since I was a teen! Will consider! K.
