Recipe for disaster



Mowing the lawn

+

Bad hay fever attack

+

Droopy, ill-fitting sweat pants with stretched-out waistband

+

Silky undies with little or no coefficient of friction

=

Unintended partial striptease in the back yard

  1. Something similar partially happened to me, only I was approaching the school to pick up my kids (and it was a loose-fitting skirt). Good thing we have kids and it takes a LOT to embarrass us, huh? (sort of lying. I considered not picking up my kids and running away to live in Namibia.)

  2. Jen - It was rather scary, what with my blindingly white legs and all.

    Allison - Fortunately, (and I'm assuming it was the same with your skirt) it was just the sweatpants that headed south, and not the undies as well. Otherwise, Namibia wouldn't have been suitably remote.

  4. Look at the bright side. At least it wasn't the front yard. With the street and the people on the street and in their cars and and and...

    I'm just sayin'

  5. XUP - Yes, they were. They were sassy, even.

    Jazz - I live on a corner. I was visible to the traffic on the street that goes beside my house. The one passing car didn't swerve into a ditch from laughing too hard. And I'm pretty sure the guy walking the shaggy white dog was looking the opposite way. Pretty sure.

  6. This is why you need a pool boy. So that someone can be there to appreciate it when you moon them.

    Thanks, Al, now that song "The Streak" is going through my head and will be until I can get the Oscar Myer song in there. For those babies out there that don't remember the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtzoUu7w-YM

  9. Jen - A pool boy is a smashing idea. Do you remember the Pool Boy character on Mad TV? "Dance, Pool Boy, dance!"

    Susan - Egging me on is perhaps a bad thing. I can only imagine my reputation in the neighbourhood.

    BFF - Hey, I wasn't streaking. I still had my underwear on.

    My debut mooning was as a result of the back seam of my favourite seats letting loose.

  13. Disaster or entertainment - just depends on your perspective.
