Today we went to Amber's wedding celebration. I needed a new pair of white stockings (nylons, pantyhose, tights, long socks, whatever you call them) to wear that didn't have a run in them. I stopped at Walgreens and picked up the $1.49 pair. When I got home and got ready to go, I put them on and thought they'd work just dandy.
Well I know I shouldn't talk about mormon underwear on my blog, but today I wore silky bottoms. I don't care for the silkies as much as other fabrics, but that's what was next in my drawer, in the dark this morning. Apparently there are no warning labels on either the stockings or the mormon underwears that the two shalt never meet. There was not enough friction between the two to hold up the socks. Long story short . . . the stupid socks would not stay up!!
I'm not just talking about a little stretching and sagging over the course of the night. I'm talking about I-can-feel-them-slide-down-as-I-am-standing-here kind of sliding. I think at one point the "crotch" of the socks was just above my knees. (Good thing my dress was long.) I had to go into the bathroom several times to adjust, but the problem just kept getting worse. Aggggghhhhhh!! Moral of he story: Next time, don't wear the silkies or don't buy the Walgreen's $1.49's.
