    Just got back from church

    Okay, well this is how I was dressed for church today. I was trying for a casual dressy look, or a dressy casual look....or something like that. Here in the desert ANYTHING goes at church because by noon the temperature was already well over 100 degrees here.



    I am wearing a grayish polo shirt and a Heather Gray Utilikilt Mocker with a StillWater sporran to add a touch of authenticity...and alllow me to get to my cell phone quickly if I need to.

    After church since I was in my "public" mood I went to Target and did some shopping so I could raise some more eyebrows. I needed to buy more clothes hangers for all these kilts that are invading my closet.

    Now....if you saw a guy my size walking through a shopping mall with a very seriously determined look on his face, would you tell him he looks silly in a kilt? This is perhaps why all my negative comments have some from people in moving vehicles. However, the negative comments have been few.

    A good look!

    You're braver than me with the sox pulled up in the heat!

    Check out the size of that smile!

    So... Did anyone at church say anything? That was another first for you, wasn't it?

    At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.

    Umm....yes....so many firsts for me. I hope that once I get over every hurdle at least once it will be easier.

    HOWEVER, this time I had a little advantage - this is the church that Retro Red attends but I didn't see him there. I knew they would be used to seeing a guy in a kilt so I wasn't heading into totally uncharted water.

    It still felt very strange indeed....
