Well, here it is; the first post of 2015. My husband and I haven’t gone out for New Year’s Eve in over seven years. This year we decided to spend the night in this fabulous little inn on the Allegheny River with my cousin, her husband and our son and his boyfriend. We had an excellent time and believe me, there was no shortage of things there to observe and entertain me.
I think my most favorite was probably the drunk girl on the knee cruiser. Don’t know what a knee cruiser is? Take a gander here. On a side note, my soon to be foot surgeon had offered to do my surgery back in the fall if I used one of these fab little devices at work. Um, no thank you. Especially because there’s steps. Just picture that for a minute…
Anyway, there was a girl at the bar who had had one or ten too many beverages. And she was toolin’ around on a knee cruiser. Trust me, highly entertaining. And it begs the question, if you’re totally wiped and scooting around on a knee cruiser does that constitute a DUI? Just something to think about my friends.
There used to be a gentleman who lived in my hood and we called him “the lawnmower man”. Why, you ask? Because that was his form of transportation; a riding lawnmower. And his most frequent place to go was the local bar. On a riding lawnmower. On a four-lane divided highway. And yes, he did receive numerous DUI citations until finally we no longer saw him. I’m assuming they towed away his riding lawnmower. Perhaps he should have gotten himself a knee cruiser.
This was my New Year’s Eve outfit…dressy, but casual. I mean seriously, did you expect anything different from me? I’ll be honest though. It was waayyy colder on the Allegheny River so I threw a turtleneck underneath the sequin top. It still looked festively fabulous, but was more weather appropriate. I apologize for the recent frequent appearance of these jeans, but they are my new favorites after all and since I’m on vacay from work there’s been no reason to wear anything else. Except maybe my sweats, but not so much in a fashiony way…more in a “I’m not leaving the house so why put on real clothes” kinda way.

Perfect outfit for NYE. I’ve heard about people getting busted for riding lawnmowers while drunk. I guess the next step is to drink-and-scoot. Happy New Year.
