Embodiment of Self (365 Day 56)



Wednesday was another good day. I caught up on my 365 project. I chilled around the house, listening to music, and singing.

I only had a few minutes to take my self portrait. The neighbors got home right after I shot this. They have perfectly horrible timing. Though if they had not come home then, I might not have used this shot. That would be sad because I ended up really liking this shot.

Erin came over in the evening. We had plans to go to goth night together. She changed clothes in the middle of our living room. Dad had specifically said that she had permission to be naked in our house anytime. So she took advantage of that. Teeheehee She's so awesome.

She dressed up in a tank top, her itty bitty stripper skirt, and heels. Since I was her date, I felt like I had to be scantily dressed as well. I wore heels, a black tank top, black pantyhose, and red underwear. I haven't worn that little for going out in 2 or 3 years.

We stopped for breadsticks on the way to the club. We had a silly good time with that. The breadsticks were pretty phallic and we had ranch dressing with them. There were many perverted jokes. :)
We had a really fun time at the club. Our friend Amanda was there and the three of us partied. They are both 21, and I spent the night acting like I was too. We danced our asses off on the dance floor. I danced harder than I have in a long time. Needless to say, I was very very sore the next day.

This image is about the struggle to be comfortable with myself. Some days are easier than others. Going out with the girls definitely helped. This project has already helped me a lot in that department as well. It's a journey.
