Hey hey!!
The weekend poll is now closed. And the winner of the little question-poo, was Richard Simmons!! YAAAAAAYY!! So now, next weekend, Richard Simmons will go head-to-head (woohoo!! pun intended!), with SOMEONE ELSE. Be ready! (oh, and Snooze provided us with a link to the Whose Line is it Anyway segment that Richard Simmons was in... go check it out! Thanks Snooze!) oh, and Snooze, I would link to YOU, but you don't make your blog public?
I didn't have a really huge eventful day today. Except...
I was a little late waking up this morning, and in my rush to get dressed - I managed to pull on my hose with one leg backward. AAAAAARRRRGHHHH!! Guys - hopefully you DON'T know how very uncomfortable this is. In the interest of time, (since I was running so late), I decided to wait until I got to work to straighten out. Big Mistake. Having one panty hose leg on backwards should be considered an unconventional method of torture. Mmm'kay? First off, it took me 45 minutes to drive to work today. Then - when I got to work, I had to wait to be let in since today was deemed "100% checks" day, which means we ALL got searched going into the facility. I had to stand in a line of about 30 people while the guards methodically searched our bags and purses. All the while I was shaking my leg trying to (unsuccessfully), make my pantyhose shift around. I think the guy behind me thought I wanted him. Next, I finally got into my office (30 minutes late), and my boss pops in. "Norman, I need you to go to the staff meeting for me today, since I can't make it...." *gulp* Staff meetings at my work are kinda intimidating, if you aren't used to going. ALL the top dogs are there. The big wigs. And I had to hurry up and get in there with my twisted ass pantyhose. I had no time to adjust them since staff was about to start. I was quick-stepping to the building, and was almost there when a stupid FLY flew up my nose. oh dear lord. How the hell am I supposed to daintly GET IT THE FUCK OUT? And I could feel it wiggling around. EWWWWWW!! You'll be glad to know that I made it to the meeting on time, got a frickin' kleenex, got rid of the fly and sat down. With backward pantyhose. Of course it happened to be a meeting where EVERYONE had something they needed/wanted to discuss.
So two hours later I finally got my hose straightened out. And no - my day didn't improve after that.
I'll spare you the rest of the details, but I will say that it did involve me tucking my skirt hem into my hose.
The end.

KimOh Norman! Pantyhose suck! The job I just started entails I dress nice, much much nicer than my version of nice. So while getting ready one day my husband asked why we wear those things? Precisely my question, who invented them and can we torture them?
As for the hem thing, never happened to me.........YET. Hope tomorrow is better! -

Blu JewelYou need a huge hug for just wearing hose. I refuse to wear them unless it's ABSOLUTELY necessary. Fortunately for me, we have a pretty relaxed dress code; therefore, the requirement in damn near non existent. I can share a funny experience with you though. Last month I was out to dinner and had on a tennis skirt of which got stuck in my panties. I came out of the ladies room like that (gasp!). Luckily I caught it before anyone noticed, but I was embarrassed nonetheless.
Here's hoping your evening was better than your day.
PS. I added your blog to my fave blog list. (smile) -

NickiPantyhose is the reason I don't wear dresses. I only wear knee-hi's with my pants and now I wear sandals, so I don't even need that.
Pantyhose is just another way for The Man to oppress us. DON'T GIVE IN!!!
BTW, I bet you look fabulous in twisted pantyhose. I wish I was there to help you straighten it out.
(People are going to start thinking I'm a man, you know. I hope you're happy with that.) -
