Elvis Costume Emergency

A WEEK FROM Saturday I am attending the Quincy Humane Society's Fabulous Fur Ball. I am one of several Elvis impersonators. Actually, I will transform myself into a living and breathing Elvis.

I was going to have somebody make me a Gold Lame Elvis getup, but it fell through. Ahhh ... the options. Black leather jacket and T shirt Elvis? Seventies Jump Suit Elvis? The 1968 Comeback Special Elvis? Flowered shirt Elvis?

As usual, Sheryl has saved me. You will have to attend the gala event to see what Elvis I have become. Meanwhile, I'm checking into the Heartbreak Hotel and getting over being called a Hound Dog.

Thank you. Thank you very much.
