Dressed up in Nixi Killick and Melissa Shoes, I feel like a colourful rainbow cyborg on a futuristic adventure. Will I dream of electric flamingos now?
Yes, I think I will, and of so much more, all in the brightest colours. I’ve never been a party girl, but I know very well how to look like one no matter where I go. I believe in making every moment exciting, and dressing up is one of my tricks to do so. People ask me at the supermarket where I go. I answer, “Home with my bananas and potatoes?” and they look back like I just told them that oranges are, in fact, ultraviolet through my cyborg-eyes.
It’s a long time since there was anywhere to go, but I don’t think the time to give up looking spectacular should ever come. Because remember: What was the fun about the events and parties? I say it was thinking about what to wear, making plans of a spectacular appearance and turn heads. Well, supermarket, you’re my place for that now! I’m not such a good dancer anyway, and it’s easier to hide than here than in a club.
Ok, I wish they’d improve the music in supermarkets; I’d really appreciate glam rock and electro instead of elevator sounds and chirping birds. Who else is in? Imagine how it would change the setting and give people the feeling that there is suddenly more fun in their lives. Yes, it would include some fights about different song tastes, but I guess we could all agree it’s better than the elevator atmosphere.
Till that happens I take my whole rainbow home with my bananas, hope it made a few people smile and continue to dream of my electric flamingos.
