(Gray, he&#8217;s in the middle of the photo). It was pretty fancy (it was in Beverly Hills.) I wore a fancy dress and fancy shoes and had a twist in my hair with a Bobby and carried around a dainty clutch. I was all set to go in with my handsome boyfriend and gorgeous friends, and as we walked in I realized something was sticky on my shoe. And what was it? &#8230;gum. I mean, it could have been some famous gum, chewed by someone I would probably take ABC gum from, but that was not the point. I politely excused myself and walked out to a poll behind a bush in front of the Pilates studio next door, and scraped it off the best I could.<\/p>\n<p>It was all very civil, the gum (which was green, so probably wintergreen, by the way) scraped off well, and I went back in, where my handsome boyfriend got me a drink, like we were part of a civilized crowd, and then we proceeded to stare at the art and comment thoughtfully.<\/p>\n<p>This begs the question, though: am I ready for openings in Beverly Hills? Maybe not&#8230;but hopefully we fit right in.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1099\" title=\"gray\" src=\"http:\/\/providentiallife.files.wordpress.com\/2009\/07\/gray.jpg\" alt=\"gray\" width=\"500\" height=\"393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jenniepalluzzi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/gray.jpg 542w, https:\/\/jenniepalluzzi.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/gray-300x236.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center;\">And that&#8217;s Gray&#8217;s boyfriend, Jeff. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night I went to my first-ever grown up &#8220;opening&#8221; at a gallery for an artist I KNOW PERSONALLY.
