Disguise

January 22, 2008 by Kathryn

Do you ever dress yourself using items you find on the floor of your car, only to look in the rearview mirror an hour later and wonder why you’re wearing a costume?

yes my nose is still red from the plague of death

    You look like a starlet wearing a papparazi-avoidance disguise. 🙂

    You make me smile. I rocked my knit magenta hat this morning, but somehow this afternoon when I added my sunglasses to the ensemble, I too managed to spook myself in the rearview mirror.

    LOL!

    No but I think I could survive in the wilderness based upon all of the random food items I find on my floorboard. 😉

    Not from the floor of my car…but I have dressed in the odd bits left by the back door. Same effect. The other parents picking up their kids from pre-k think I escaped from my padded cell.

    I would be dressed in McDonald’s bags and pop cans….how crazy would that look…Oh, but I would have some hip safety glasses too, and maybe a Scout shirt.
    Too cute.

    LOL! There comes a point in every mother’s life where just being able to FIND the car is more important than identifying what we FIND IN IT… but actually WEARING what you find in it ~ aaaah, that’s the point of pure cussed self-assurance in every meaning of the word.

    I know it’s time to hose out the van when I slide the side door open only wide enough to let the kids get in without scraping their noses off just in case the perky lady in the cute BMW next to me should see the scuzz strewn about the cabin and think me to be a “Lowlife Messy Mom.” I giggle at the thought of pulling a Vanna White, whipping that door open all the way, posing my arms to accentuate the largest pile of kidkrud, and flashing a smile at her… next time with a green knit hat for sure! LOL!!!

    You crack me up!

    At first I read “cactus” instead of “costume” and then I realized why I might have made that mistake…

    NO! no, no no! I do NOT do that.

    But you make it look like such a cute thing to do!

    Hey there!

    Found you through Fussy!!!

    If I ever disguised myself with items found on the floor of my car I would be wearing french fries and remanants of crusty hamburgers!!! I don’t think I would look that darling!!!

    Funny though!

    All… the… time… Yesterday, I wore a snappy little ensemble comprised on black stretchy pants (they go with everything), a Wonder Woman t-shirt and a purple sparkly sweater with a rainbow scarf and flip flops. Lookin’ good.

    Yes as a matter of fact, just the other day. Couldn’t find my gloves so I had to settle for my 5 year old son’s glow in the dark skeleton gloves. I wish I would have remembered to take them off as I was paying for my food at the Burger King drive through.
