Yes.

message 76: by Heidi (new)

Heidi (heidihooo) | 10825 comments I don't even like to wear make-up. I most definitely don't like to dress up. I only do it when I absolutely HAVE to do it... or when I have tons of laundry to do and dressy dresses are all that are left in my closet.

message 79: by Margot (new)

Margot | 103 comments I enjoy gowning up when it is an occasion and you have plenty of time. Otherwise it is just habit like brushing your teeth.

... I read that as "growing" up. Talk about a double-take!

Susan | 6406 comments You would be.


message 87: by Phil (new)

Phil | 11837 comments Would I?

Wood eye?

Jerry lost his eye in an accident and couldn't afford the price of a glass eye. So he carved one out of wood. But he was so self-conscious that he never left the house.

Finally, his friend Ed came over and forced him to go out. "There's a dance over at the club," he said. "So what if one of your eyes is made out of wood?"

"All right," said Jerry, "but if anybody makes fun of my eye I'm leaving."

He went to the dance and stood around, trying to build up his courage. And then he saw a woman standing alone in the corner. She was very attractive, but she had a peg leg.

"She's worse off than me," Jerry thought. "The least I can do is ask her to dance."

He walked across the crowded dance floor and approached the girl. "Would you care to dance?" he asked.

"Would I?!" she exclaimed.

"That does it," he shouted, "Peg leg! Peg leg! Peg leg!"
