or one could wear a hi-vis jacket with a couple of layers of net curtain draped over it; find some moonlight to pose in; or shove a torch down your bra.

Thing To Do Today: shimmer. This word was scimerian in Old English. The word is related to the Low German schēmeren, which means to grow dark, and the Old Norse skimi, which means brightness.
