**BLACK AND WHITE PHOTO REMOVED**
It's Photo Friday...haha, no I won't do that to you. Today could be Tripod Tuesday, but I'm feeling it should be Femma Frometimes Flack and Frhite Freadshot Friday.
Personally, I don't like themed days of the week, it's too restricting. When I get a bug to write, I want a blank slate before me. I could do Scissor-Kick Sunday, Thick Hair Thursday....or Mass Suicide Monday, just to shake things up a bit.
I only go with the flow if it's going in my direction.
Don't you find it interesting that meme and hell both have four letters? Coincidence? I don't think so.
In other news, our family has been stricken with the stomach flu. I hate barf and I have to buy more toilet paper. That's all I'll say about that.
The Stomp Dance Troop that lives upstairs is moving soon. Hurrah! In light of that, they've decided rules no longer apply to them. Cranked music at all hours, laundry at 3am complete with sliding / slamming closet doors, and sweeping their dried cat poop and kitty liter onto my balcony. I could look past this summer's constant barrage of cigarette butts raining down on my flowers but I don't want hepatitis or toxomplasmosis so call me picky, picky, picky..... There is a reason I don't have pets. It's the cleaning and responsibility. I already have 5 in the family to look after. Why would I want more of that? So, I'm happy the Riverdancing Cloggers are moving, catbox and all.

So how many of you wear your yellow boxers with pink butterflies in public? I see people out in their pj pants and a couple of days ago, I saw this 06 Grad out in Target. Please people, for the love of all things flannel and sleepwear, do not wear your pjs in public. It's tacky. It's sloppy. You look stupid. I always wonder if the offender is A) hygiene deficient, B) too lazy to do laundry, or D) seriously fashion impaired.
What do you think? Be honest now....

Does running for the morning paper count? It's just across the street in its paper box...LOL
You are so funny!!
Ancient One, Only if you are within 1 minute of your front door, you are okay...I can understand that one.
(ie, taking dog potty, getting the paper, using the outhouse, burying your terrible ex, you know, that kind of thing)
To be totally honest, I agree it is tacky totally, but when I've worked all day and just taken a shower and put on my pj's and the boy wants something at the movie gallery....by gum, I go in my pj pants..but you must understand, I wear attractive pj pants (NOT BOXERS), ones that insinuate I am really a victoria's secret model underneath...the posibilities are endless. I've thrown out my boyshorts and there's a new thing in town. Let freedom ring..but without all that noise!!!
now you kids are probably thinking...Hey Matt..how can we get back on track? well here's the deal...you're probably going to find out that as you go out there...into the world...you're not going to amount to
JACK.
SQUAT
Sorry to hear that the flu has stricken your house... hopefully it flies by quickly!
I admit to going out in my pjs on occasion... can I plead E) my kids are just driving me mad and I have to get out the door QUICK?
My view is the same as Dooz. If I go out in pj pants, I make sure there's the same amount of coverage as "regular" clothes and that they are NOT see through. But most of the time they're just like yoga pants or something.
mcbunni,
yoga pants are different, like sweats. I'm talking loose fitting, sleepytime, snoring bears in nightcaps pj's.
ba doozer,
living in a van down by the RIVER!!! and as long as you know it's tacky then I think that absolves you of all wrong doing. Thus sayeth the PJ Police. Amen.
I'm living in hell right now b/c I'm actually enjoying the memes. I think I'll outgrow it, but for now it's "aight". LOL
But, I'd never wear PJs in public unless I was going through a drive through. So, I'm with ya there.
Personally, I throw on a pair of jeans if'n I'ma gonna leave the house. I guess my mama's voice in my head is just too loud, "...you could have a car wreck, you know...how seriously is an officer of the law going to take someone who is wearing their pjs? For that matter, do you have clean underwear on, honey?"
Umm, I think you are totally right about pjs. I used to wear them in public when I would run to the store because I was depressed, but that is probably just a cry for help. LOL.
BTW--You look absolutely gorgeous.
E) Somewhat easy. I think it is a good look providing the following.
A - you are in fact hot to trot
AND
B - you are not jail bait.
Extra points if th boxers show off ALL of your tramp stamp.
There are women in my neighborhood who pick up their children from kindergarten wearing pajama bottoms and slippers.
But then, consider my neighborhood.
P.S. Gorgeous picture :) (not of the boxers)
I did a post awhile back about my pet peeves and the whole pj wearing in public phenomenon was right up there. How long does it take to get dressed?
Love the headshot, you look gorgeous (or totally hot, whichever makes you feel less uncomfortable, or take both, it's your choice ;-) )
PJ's in public...not cool unless they don't look like PJs. Me...I rarely go out without any makeup on, let alone PJs (omg I sound like my grandma!)
Hope y'all recover from the bug soon!
Hey Ems
Love the b&w picture. Fab :).
Hope you all feel better soon.
I think PJs in public should be banned, although seeing other people wear them makes me feel less pathetic as a person in general.
I am in favor of everyone just walking around in their underwear. For one thing, it would be cheaper than buying clothes, unless you shop at Old NAvy, which isn't all that expensive, really. You'd still have to buy coats and all that for cold days, but you could wear the heavy winter pj's. I wear my fanciest pj's to drop the Jedi off at school, but I don't get out of the car.... Also, I wear a baseball hat and sunglasses, but everyone still probably knows it's me.... What the point of this comment is, I no longer know....
You must be a broom because you’re sweeping me off my feet.
Ouch.
I wanna hear your rant on the gansta kids who wear their pants down below their butts so they have to waddle like ducks just so they don't fall down. How is that supposed to be cool?
LOVE the commentary on the Meme and Hell. Oh so true and please yes lets start scissor kick Sunday.
I don't mind jammies, as long as they cover everything. On a side note, I think you look beautiful in your photo!
I lost count of how many times I laughed out loud reading this post. Thanks so much for a good read!
"Mass Suicide Monday." Priceless.

I am so sorry to hear about your family's bout with the flu. That is truly miserable, and when it's multiplied like that, it's almost unbearable. I remember a couple of times thinking that I'd rather die if it lasted another day... flu is NOT fun. It's worse when YOU are yakking AND your kid is yakking beside you... :P
I think that's just painful to look at.
Great photo of yourself! You look beautiful and I like the b/w.
As for the pajamas in public. UGH. I hate that. Especially when it's a cute skinny girl who thinks she looks hot like that. It's gross and I try not to get too close. I imagine they don't smell too fresh.
for the love of everything holy, put down the pipe and post something new here!
Today, I wore my nice PJ pants (bright green with pink butterflies or something. I dunno) to take the Jedi to school. Halfway there, I realized I was nearly out of gas and couldn't risk driving home and THEN to the gas station. And AAA will charge you twice the amount for gas. So, I put gas in the car wearing my PJ's.
I think people wearing their jammies in public are very annoying. It's cute if you're four years old and it's past your bedtime, but when you're a grown-up it kind of looks like you've been committed and you've escaped.
Comment the first: lookin' pretty hot in black 'n' white.
Comment the next: Turtle and I are are in total agreement with you on the PJs and underwear in public issue. If you're too lazy to get dressed before you go out, might as well just stay in bed.
"meme hell" hehe, I like. hey Lazy Iguana, thx for reminding me of "tramp stamp". I had recent occasion to use it but (fortunately?) couldn't remember the term so as to put my foot in the mouth. next time I'll be prepared.
