Rawwwr! Fear me!

Question for ya.

What do you look like when you're at home?

This me up top there in that picture.

As soon as I walk in the door, I walk straight to my bedroom,

take off my shoes and put on comfy clothes.

On days where I don't feel like washing, blow-drying, flat-ironing my hair,

I simply throw it up in pig-tails and bob's your uncle.

The reason I ask is because Paul made a comment yesterday that made

me tilt my head, raise my eyebrow and say "hmmmm?"

He gave me a few compliments (as he usually does),

but at the end, followed it up with a "Hmm?  What was that you say?" moment.

He said, "Oh I think you're beautiful.  

Your hair is a good cut to compliment your face shape,

I love your body and your curves,

the little bit of makeup you wear is just enough to compliment your features....

and even without makeup,

you're soft and beautiful.

I've seen you with your pig-tails in your hair,

and.... eh, okay.

I can deal with that.

Would I want to go to the mall with you looking like that?

Probably not.

But I guess around the house it could be acceptable."

'Scuse? What's that?  Pardon?

Wait, I couldn't hear you, take the silver spoon out of your mouth first.

"...could be acceptable"?

You had to live in a spoiled little bubble if you think
women should look pristine at all times
and should never go somewhere as FANCY *JAZZ HANDS*
as the MALL without their coif perfected.

wuh-eva

This whole thing struck me weird in several ways.

First of all,

"could be acceptable...."

since when do I need to make sure what
I wear is acceptable to anyone but myself?

Oh yeah, I DON'T.

I could really care LESS, my friend, what you think about what I wear.

If I want to die my hair hot pink and pierce my nose,

you will just chalk it up to my adorable, quirky little personality.
Them's the rules.
It's in the Bible.

Second of all,

Wouldn't be seen in public with me like that???

Ummmmm, my first thought to that was,

"Then you can leave your ass at home!"

It also made me want to start wearing

pig-tails EVERY SINGLE DAY
simply as an "up yours!"

Third,
you guess it would be acceptable to wear them around the house???
Why?
How do "normal" people lounge around the house?

Oh, okay.  I understand.  I got you boo, don't even trip.

You expect me to be one of those women
who wake up earlier than the sun in order
to shower, put on full makeup, do full hair and don something cute to wear
before you ever crack open your crusty eyes and scratch your stinky butt
so that you'll never have to look at me as less than perfect?

One of those women who are all,
"My man has never seen me naked or without a full face of makeup.  EVER."

Let me just respond to that honey....

hahahahaahahahaahahahaaha!!!!!


Shorry boo.  Not ever gonna happen.
ever.  evaevaevaevaeva. eva!

I don't think he necessarily meant it as I took it,
but still.  Boy is he in for a rude awakening!
The first time I wake up with bedhead lookin like Chewbacca,
with my cowlick stickin all up.
*belly laugh*
That will be fun.
