I’m Back to Embarassing Myself!

Here I am last weekend at an 80’s Party.  I spent the day watching 80’s movies, and I was torn between Robert Downey Jr from Weird Science or Marty McFly/Michael J Fox from Back to the Future.  So, I went shopping that day, and what’s really sad:  I only needed to buy shoes as I already had the other clothes lined up.  Actually, that’s not true:  I lacked the suspenders for the Marty McFly outfit.  But, what really put the nail in the coffin of the McFly outfit was the fact that a pair of Chucks (you know, those canvas high tops) were $40 and a pair of decent loafers were $10.  Weird Science wins!  Actually, I thought it turned out rather well.  Here are the results:

I think this comparison between my outfit and Robert's character is pretty tight.

I think this comparison between my outfit and Robert's character is pretty tight. I obviously forgot to roll up my sleeves...

I think I pulled it off! I want to give a shout out to Sarah for inviting me. A big “Happy Birthday” to Maggie, and a “Thank You” to Lori for hosting the party!
