Okay, you win. *grin* And would you believe I didn't even put that "scratch" next to the "camel toe" on purpose? Guess that's just how my subconscious rolls. ;)<br /><br />Steph -- Amazing what you learn around here, huh? And hosiery it way overrated. <br /><br />Dianne -- LOL!

I said, "Pah! I'm in my jammy pants. I'll go if I can wear them," fully expecting her to decline, but she didn't. She really wanted to dine. So, I wore my jammy pants and let me tell you, it wasn't a case of those people who schlepp around grocery stores in pajamas--this was clearly a case of defiance and it was great fun. My mom thought it was funny. <br /><br />Also, I must say camels are not that dignified. Once, at the zoo, two were mating and the NOISE they made was obscene and amazing. AMAZING. Like, porno soundtrack. Those camels.

It's a testament to her loving tolerance that she still speaks to me. (I don't regret it, though. Those sneakers were comfortable. And hey, it was a long time ago.)<br /><br />Coincidentally, the closest I've ever come to being killed in a crosswalk was when I was wearing that exact same outfit.

Worst case scenario, she was running for State Representative and wanted her family at a meet & greet. I had punkish hair at the time - bright red mo-hawkish top layered into shaved black on my sides and back. No matter how well dressed and slicked down I tried to make my hair...it was a no go.<br /><br />She had all she could do to introduce me as her daughter in-law. (Yes, I was a wild child, why do you ask? *winks*) <br /><br />Me? I loved seeing her squirm, we never saw eye to eye.
