I’m already dressed up. Let’s go.” *This* is a house party. A lifestyle house party with a glow/disco theme. So way fewer kegs…

Continue reading →: Do I really have to get naked?In the weeks leading up to our Desire trip, I agonized over the clothing optional aspect of it. I mean, in clothes, I look pretty great. But after three abdominal surgeries (including a c-section) and a 65-pound weight loss, well, things are far flabbier than I’d like. So I bought…
