London Covered in Flags…and Lingerie
The streets of London hold more people than I’ve seen in any city. New York is the closest thing
I’ve seen to it but in New York it seems far less bothersome because everyone is going at the same rapid pace. Not so in London.
For some reason, the people here like to walk diagonal, stop randomly and begin heading in the other direction and the number of people stopping for a freshly made doughnut or chocolate drizzled Belgium waffle is dizzying.
I arrived in London a week and a half before the Summer Olympics 2012 are scheduled to happen. “Where are you guys going to fit all the people travelling here?” asked a taxi driver. “It’s going to be dreadful. We’re all dreading it.” And I see why.
I couldn’t go 5 blocks without zig zagging through what was probably a thousand people – and that was only on my side of the street. But I was on a mission to find the perfect piece of lingerie to greet my husband after he returned to the hotel from his final meeting of the day.
Now, I’ve never quite understood the point of lingerie. I spend all this time getting dolled up and putting on something Keith is going to immediately remove. And I mean immediately. Early on in our marriage, he’d purchased me quite a few pieces of lingerie. I’d even purchased several myself. But I never quite got the hang of them. I didn’t feel comfortable in them. I felt confident in them because I felt good about my body but they just didn’t seem authentic. They weren’t me.
How could I be completely open in my expression of physical love if I didn’t feel as though I was being myself? Keith and I talked about this many times because there was a pretty wide gap between the lingerie he found appealing on me and the soft cotton nighties I found comfortable to wear. But I’d been away from him longer than I’d ever been -on my trip around the world in search of the secret to a happy marriage- so I wanted to step up the eye candy.
And yippee, I found the perfect piece.
Question: What do you think about lingerie? Do you enjoy wearing it? Does your husband enjoy seeing you in it?
