New Year, old dress

The story behind my return HNT is as follows:

Several years ago, I lost about 280 pounds. 230 were his, and 50-mine. I bought this dress to go to a New Year's Eve party at a hotel.(without him) I'll never forget the look on my friend Kate's face when she saw me in it.
"WHAT are you wearing that for?!" she exclaimed.
I was on cloud nine. I felt like I'd be the most gorgeous person at the Hyatt that night. I told her "if you had what I've got, you'd wear this dress, too!" I have gotten more than my money's worth with that purchase. Over and over again, I have been the belle of the ball--even if only in MY mind~
Just for shits and grins, last night I put that dress on. As I zipped the zipper, I wondered when I'd get to wear it again. After the zipper closed, I stood back and looked into the mirror.
Damn.
I'd want to dance with me...
