Apparently my imagination is shot tonight because as I think about a conversation in which a person was unfairly abrasive this is about all I can come up with:
Him (I'll just imagine it as a Him. A really skinny Him. 5'2'' eighty pounds with impeccable taste in clothes. My insulter is trendy, although on the wee side.) "What are you wearing?"
Me: "Seran wrap. It's a head band. I made it. Out of kitchenware And it's waterproof!"
Him: "It looks ridiculous."
Me: (Giving him points for at least saying ridiculous rather than stupid) "Well..."
Him: (Now furrowing his very tiny eyebrows down to his very tiny eyes) "Why would you ever wear that?"
Me: "Well..." (wishing I had a better vocabulary)
Him: "I hate you."
Me: "Oh. Well thank you." (Nice save, Amberlee. Always suave with comebacks.)
And there you have it. My make believe conversation with someone who hates me for no reason. And unfortunately I went through this very eccentric stage of making outfits out of things usually considered garbage and then wearing them. So yes, I have worn a seran wrap headband. I was young...
These were my special days.
You didn't mention the twist ties, the zip-lock bracelets, the aluminum foil, or the paper clips! Those were magical times. You were so stylish!!
ReplyDeleteI was. It's true. However, the ziplock bracelets were not me. I think you have me confused with someone else - didn't you do that?
ReplyDeleteYou forgot the broken CD jewelry
