apropos of anything

I wore a sari to wedding today (it’s like 20-something years old (if not older) from my mother’s collection that she never wears, but everything old is new again, so I’m like yay, fashion extravaganza!!) and remember when I said tighter is better? I have a red line going around my waist to mark where I tied my petticoat, and I honestly cannot tell you what hurts more at the moment, my waist or my feet that have been crammed into unfamiliar heels all evening.
