I am not sure why I [read: Wonder Woman] have become so un-super-hero-like these days &#8211; it could have something to do with not drinking &#8211; I mean I was supposed to go to a party tonight where everyone would be having cocktails and the truth is that standing around talking to people who are having cocktails when you are not just isn&#8217;t that much fun &#8211; really. The other night I was supposed to attend a birthday party where again everyone was having fancy shmancy gin cocktails and again, I just wasn&#8217;t in the mood &#8211; I preferred my book and early to bed.<\/p>\n<p>My mood these days is all about chill-axing when I&#8217;m not working on one of my myriad projects &#8211; that is all I seem to want to do with myself when I&#8217;m not with Tin or working. And with Tin, well it&#8217;s always showtime.<\/p>\n<p>So maybe the weeks when he spends the night at Tatjana&#8217;s are just recovery weeks for me and that is when going out just seems redundant to the nonstop entertainment I&#8217;ve had when I&#8217;m with him. Who knows &#8211; maybe it&#8217;s that I&#8217;m 54 and he&#8217;s 4 and therein lies the answer to everything about this complete reframing of my super hero status.<\/p>\n<p>And Wonder Woman has taken this whole concept just one step further with a complete wardrobe redo &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/donnad\/lady-superhero-costumes-redesigned-by-ladies\" target=\"_blank\">Wonder Woman has a new outfit<\/a> and it is much more fitting as you can see:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"18711\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.dangermond.org\/?attachment_id=18711\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7.jpg?fit=871%2C634\" data-orig-size=\"871,634\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-title=\"enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7.jpg?fit=640%2C466\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-18711\" alt=\"enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7.jpg?resize=640%2C466\" width=\"640\" height=\"466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7.jpg?w=871 871w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.dangermond.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/enhanced-buzz-wide-23633-1379532320-7.jpg?resize=300%2C218 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So seeing how she is being much more practical in her super hero life, it all just makes sense that my fantasy life is filled with practicality as well. I took a break from my back-to-back episodes of Scandal to go over to visit with Tin and give him a bath. As soon as he was in the bath, he decided it was showtime &#8211; as usual &#8211; and so the shower curtain became the stage curtain and he donned exfoliating gloves and a wide-toothed comb to become Se\u00f1or Walrus.
