People Get Ready

It's here!!  The Fashion Fiesta!!  

Stay tuned-- I'm real busy planning all the stunningly fashionable combinations with which I will wow my Audience of One (actually it's two, but I seem to be on a random thing with incorporating the titles of Christian songs into the post.  Can you find all of the "hidden" song titles??  OMG, that sounds like a VBS challenge.  Now, where was I?  Oh yes, fashion.) 

 In fact, just to get really inspired, I am spending my Friday night on the couch, with my beloved laptop, watching the Miss USA pageant.  Lots of lovely, bedazzled ladies!  Hosted by Donny and Marie!!  I know you are all totally wishing your Friday nights were as thrilling as mine.  

We will ignore the fact that, in this pursuit of fashion utopia (nirvana?  whatever.) I am wearing ratty light blue sweatpants and my almost-as-beloved-as-the-laptop "Todd's at Tigertail Beachside Grill Marco Island" T-shirt (with the picture of the pyramid of people, hiney-side showing, on the back).  I'll spare you an actual photo of this lovely ensemble.  The T-shirt is of an undetermined age, since I have no idea how I acquired it.  Especially since the only people I know who go to Marco Island with any regularity are my 89-year-old grandparents.  Somehow I doubt Mamapa and Granddaddy are hangin' out at Todd's shooting pool during their annual beach trip.  

I Will be Here later this weekend with my contribution to the fiesta!!  (I may be pushing the nerd envelope with that last song title, but I just indulged in a few chocolate chip cookies  and after 10 days of WW and chocolate deprivation, I blame all nerdiness on the sugar rush.)

Yay, I'm glad you posted this because I need to take pictures of my pajamas and old Converse shirts for the Fashion Fiesta.

I'm going to have to take pictures of dirty yoga pants, because I haven't done the dark laundry yet this weekend. He he.

Just wanted to drop a quick note to clarify-I was the former Assistant Manager of "Todd's At Tigertail". I know the shirt you're talking about well (I had to wear it as part of our 'uniform').

Unfortunately, it's no longer in business-on March 5, 2005, we were forced to close down (we lost all our business when the beach changed & people stopped coming. The owners lost too much money & shut it down).

So that shirt (as Todd the owner told me on our last day) is sort of a 'collector's item' now (in fact I think I still have one that I never used).
