A Great Big Diva!

P.S. I forgot to pack my girdle…

OMG!!! It's true folks! I forgot to pack my girdle this weekend. I am performing at a black tie event without a girdle. You might ask: "How could this happen?" Hell, if I know. I have never- let me repeat - never, ever, forgotten my girdle. And we ain't talking no prissy, wimpy Spanx shit. I mean a GIRDLE. No offense to Spanx wearers, but Spanx ain't a girdle, not according to my standards. If it can be folded flat into a sleeve for retail display, like a pair of panty hose or panties, …

Hey there! I am in Colorado again, staying at my friend's magnificent home in the mountains.

Dancin’, Dancin’ Dancing!!

I brought my camera with me to document the dancing and the energy level at the two big parties that Lynne Jordan & the Shivers (me & the band) performed at this weekend. Both parties required massive amounts of dancing. Each party would have been a total bust if this did not happen. Both parties were crazy. The dance floor was full and folks really let go! it made me so happy. (and the Shivers too!) …
