Now this is a subject that warrants discussion on hosta-open. (many of you
will disagree.) I attended my first convention last year, and attended the
banquet in a sleeveless shirt and old khaki pants. Then I see everybody,
and some are in (this is literally true) ball gowns, glittery rhinestone
dresses, and metallically-adorned dresses. Not all, but most were dressed
up on the scale of church or better. Most men were in suits.
I find this astounding.
But I will have to at least search the dusty side of my wardrobe for a
sundress or something! I absolutely hate dressing up!
