Lingua Franca Old School Sweater
This Lingua Franca “Old School” Sweater says it all – as dievca is listen to “Nu Shooz” to get moving this morning…
Approval from the “cool kids”

dievca was schlepping her clothes to Buffalo Exchange resale in her very large P.A.M. (Perks & Mini) tote bag (photo). The resale associate bought a bunch of dievca’s stuff and then went crazy about the bag, asking about the brand and where she could get it. dievca was a bit stunned at the amount of enthusiasm shown for the tote bag.
Perks & Mini is an Australian “urban/street” brand which does a lot of collaborations. dievca was introduced to the brand with their Converse collaboration.
The “alien” character on the bag is Marpi – the mascot of the brand.
dievca thinks the bag is fun and quirky – but she had no clue it could be considered “hip”.
The “old school” and clueless dievca scores, again, by pure luck.

Temptation: when GenX pounds it out
Posted: September 18, 2024 Filed under: Entertainment | Tags: 1980's, dievca, Generation X, Life, Memories, music video, New Order, temptation, working 3 Commentsdievca worked this morning and is now home and doing personal work. It’s nice to have the soundtrack of her early Life playing. Master laughs at the 80’s synth – but dievca feels that New Order is rocking!
And now its in my head~

Maybe in your head, too! XO
(Actually dignity and diggity have no relation in meaning, but dievca still laughed when she saw the meme – and started singing….earworm.)

When the Gen Z guests want to hang out and make conversation for a couple of hours before heading out for their NYC evening. It also makes dievca feel good when she can send them on their way with a full belly to help combat any alcohol intake. Hanging out with “young folk” is the BEST way to keep one young!
Last Minute Gala

Under protest, dievca got roped into a fundraising Gala. The weather was lovely, the crowd was muttering about how to remember to put make-up on and dievca was just trying to slide on by….
dievca cannot figure out if she is a curmudgeon or has gone back to her loner Generation X roots or what~ she needs to get it together and just have fun at these events rather than whining.
Yeah, ok, next week she will try again. And another week in June.
Is there anything you are pushing through?
And so it goes~ Gala Night

she opted to wear:
dievca doesn’t know if the COVID epidemic caused her to go back to her Generation X roots of being a “loner”, perimenopause is causing her to get tired/irritated or starting work at 6 am put her over the edge by 10:00 pm – after 3 hours she wanted out. So, she left after the meal, before the awards, to hike up her skirt and bike her a** home.

Master laughs at His dievca’s penchant for 80’s synthesizer hits. What can she say? she’s an 80’s Throwback – a product of Generation X:
- They’re Expert DIY-ers. …
- Their Sartorial Style Is Decidedly Dressed-Down. …
- They’ve Got the Whole Work-Life Balance Thing Down Pat. …
- They Tech-Savvy… But Not Tech-Dependent. …
- They’re Fiercely Independent.
- They’re Fiercely Attached To Their Music AND Don’t Really Care If You Like It Or Not.
Lyrics:
You saw me standing by the wall corner of a main street
And the lights are flashing on your window sill
All alone ain’t much fun so you’re looking for the thrill
And you know just what it takes and where to go
Don’t save a prayer for me now
Save it ’til the morning after
No don’t say a prayer for me now
Save it ’til the morning after
Feel the breeze deep on the inside look you down into the well
If you can you’ll see the world in all his fire
Take a chance like all dreamers can’t find another way
You don’t have to dream it all, just live a day
Don’t say a prayer for me now
Save it ’til the morning after
No don’t say a prayer for me now
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Pretty looking road I try to hold the rising floods that fill my skin
Don’t ask me why I’ll keep my promise I’ll melt the ice
And you wanted to dance so I asked you to dance
But fear is in your soul
Some people call it a one night stand but we can call it paradise
Don’t say a prayer for me now
Save it til the morning after
No don’t say a prayer for me now
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after
Save it ’til the morning after (doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo)
Save a prayer ’til the morning after
Save a prayer ’til the morning after
Save a prayer ’til the morning after
Save a prayer ’til the morning after
Save a prayer ’til the morning after
Save a prayer ’til the morning after

The Elder Statesman Morph Stripe 100% Cashmere sweater and shorts
dievca was musing to Master about how she hasn’t hit the drama point others are experiencing with COVID-19. (The Millenials, Generation Z, and the Boomers.) Granted, she is working and going in to work. Work is relatively safe, but she does interact with people, etc.
Time at home meant she has had the opportunity to work on her injuries, clear out her Mom’s house and her space, resell or donate a number of items. dievca hasn’t minded sitting around watching a movie, reading a book, or taking the time to cook. she doesn’t feel the need to socialize and wandering the empty City is a treat.
After talking to a friend about feeling guilty for enjoying the time to regroup – the friend looked at dievca and said,
“Generation X is made for quarantine.”
Oh, yeah.
Spending time alone at home – no problem.
Not being able to go places – no problem.
Creating odd meals from a low stock pantry – no problem.
Avoiding others – no problem (Stranger Danger & Just say, “No”)
Not traveling – no problem
Maneuvering to get things done – no problem
And the chance to wear a cozy rainbow morph outfit in a sunny apartment? Heaven.
LMAO – “OK, Boomer!”

We had a little conversation (a 12 yr old and dievca)….
and the phrase “OK, Boomer” came into play~
dievca is NOT a boomer…(Master is~)
As of July 1, 2019 (the latest date for which population estimates are available), Millennials, whom we define as ages 23 to 38 in 2019, numbered 72.1 million, and Boomers (ages 55 to 73) numbered 71.6 million. The two groups sandwich and overwhelm the middle child, Generation X.
dievca is a slacker….Hello….Generation X.
Don’t f*ck with her.
She’s a bit cynical (actually more of a realist), does not need validation, and slides by quietly to get things done.

Parental lineage
Generally, Gen Xers are the children of the Silent Generation and older baby boomers.
dievca’s parents were of the Silent Generation.
Anyways, the comment sparked a conversation that made dievca laugh like hell. Kids are fantastic with serving up a dose of reality. dievca couldn’t decide if she was more offended by being called a “Boomer” or her personal reaction to being called one! (Sorry Boomers…😘)
“This old thing?”

Midwestern weather in February calls for winter dressing.
dievca dug into her closet and came up with older items that still generated a couple of compliments.
she was astounded.
A whole discussion on fashion and Bricks & Mortar VS. Online Shopping occurred in an airport restaurant because of her coat. The discussion continued because her flight seatmate worked for ShopBop.
Two adorable Millennials noticing the exhausted Generation X-er’s style – a shocker.
Who said that women over 50 are marginalized?
