I wore a black derby today

Seriously.

Just before I left, I saw a black derby on top of the couch.
And I thought, "I'm going to wear that this Friday morning."
"I'm going to make people look at me."
It worked.
At every turn, passersby were riveted to me and my hat.
And I flashed each of them a smile
As if to say, "Made you look."
And my smile stayed with me.
Because, in some small way,
I was living life on my terms.

Find your black derby today.

OH YES!!!

(I know you've always wanted to make me say that.)

This is my favorite post you have ever done.

Which says as much about me as it does about you. :)
