I have been a wife and mother for over twenty years. Now I am becoming my husband's lover, too.
We owe it all to my fellow bloggers who gave me the courage to come out to my husband as a spanko.
I do feel like this is a New Beginning for us.

My connection to the Met Gala

Okay, you have to dig for the connection, but it’s more than I’ve ever had before. On the afternoon of the Gala, LJ text me and asked, ‘Are you familiar with the Met Gala?’


 

I told him that I was, but not to invite me because I didn’t have a thing to wear. He answered, ‘Watch the red carpet and you might see my work.’ I know LJ’s work and this made no sense so I waited for the next text.

 

LJ works at Little Island in NYC, a new beautiful park financed solely by Barry Dillard. Barry Dillard is married to Diane von Furstenberg. She owns a lovely building near Little Island and gave one floor of this building to house the offices of Little Island. Actually it’s a big open space where they all work.

 

On the afternoon of the Gala, the elevator opened and a somewhat frazzled woman rushed out asking loudly, “Does anyone here know how to tie a bow tie?”

 

Everyone stared in silence until LJ spoke up, “Yes, I can tie a bow tie.” This was a skill he picked up as a theater major in college.

 

“Come with me!” the woman called and they headed to the penthouse, Diane Von Furstenberg’s apartment. It seemed that neither this lovely designer nor any of her assistance could tie a bow tie! It was actually Diane’s granddaughter's boyfriend in need, and after having him sit – as LJ said, ‘This guy had to be nine feet tall!’ LJ tied him a lovely bow tie was profusely thanked by the family and went back to work.



Living in New York City is something I’d never want to do, but LJ loves it. And I have to admit he does have some interesting moments.

  1. Hi PK, it seems living in NYC does have it's perks, can't believe neither Diane or her assistants could tie a bow tie though.

    1. True. I guess most of them come pre-tied these days but still...

    Forget the bow tie, what about some of the outfits, why wear anything at all, it was all on show. I just wonder what women are thinking when such an outfit is worn, example the outfit that was consider nude with flowers. Sorry male point of view. Jack

    1. I know what you're saying Jack, but really I just don't care anymore. They can come out nude for all I care as long as I can wear my sweats and T-shirts!

      I agree with you, wearing your sweats and t-shirts is great, at least your not showing it all. Jack

  3. I think the thing is to be more outrageous than anyone else. Good for LJ = he can add that to his resume - bowtie tier for the rich and famous.

  4. PK, good job LJ was around. To be honest I can't tie a bow tie.

    Love,

    Oh my gosh, this just made me laugh! Imagine a room full of entertainers and it's LJ to the rescue! Love it!

    Admittedly I don't watch awards shows anymore - I know almost none of the entertainers or the shows/movies. I stick with baseball games and boring run of the mill shows these days :)

    1. I'm the same way. The few minutes I watched of the Emmys I haven't even even heard of any of the shows they mentioned. I'm happy with network shows and reruns are fine.
