who are those strange folks?!


Hubby had taken a change of clothes to the wedding rehearsal, but time was running out. The tuxedo shop was going to close any minute. So he rushed inside to pick up his tux for the wedding the next day. "Oh, dear," I exclaimed to my grandson. "He didn't change!" Then I added, "I'll go in, too, then. Will you take our photo?" Grandson and I exited the car. Inside the shop, the employees were cordial and seemed to be completely devoid of curiosity. I asked Hubby if he told the folks why they were handing an elegant tux to a man in pajamas. He said no. So I announced, "We just came from the wedding rehearsal for our daughter. She loves wearing hoodies and pajamas, so some of us secretly decided to dress like that for the rehearsal." The employees broke into grins. I think they were relieved to know they weren't dealing with folks who were smoking something illegal or, worse, afflicted with something catching. As you see, Grandson duly captured the moment for posterity. (Thanks, Lolo!) No, of course I didn't wear those fuzzy slippers to the wedding! I wore black Converse, just as did the bride.
