Social Experiments

If you ever want to receive some of the strangest looks you'll ever get here's what you do: go to a shopping mall on a Saturday all dressed up. I killed some time this weekend between wedding events by hitting a Calgary mall. So me in my little black dress, coat and heels wandering through a mall got some very confused looks. I recommend it, just because it's funny. This experiment also showed me why Sex and the City episodes are only 40 minutes long, you can only walk and shop for so long in heels...

It's also funny to go to a Calgary nightclub in this very same black dress. I wouldn't say anyone was knocking down my door but I will say that I got more attention than I usually do.
Neither of these experiments will become regular part of my life mostly because I enjoy shopping in regular clothes and no matter what kind of attention I get at a club I hate clubs.

And on an unrelated note, at the wedding I attended I was seated at a Fernie table, it was fun because I haven't lived in Fernie since 1989 and haven't even been there since the mid-nineties.
