This morning I decided I wanted to wear my absolute favorite dress. I very rarely wear it because it is one of about 3 articles of clothes I actually follow the washing instructions on and it is dry clean only. (I know I could buy Dryel or one of those but our dryers at the apartment have 1 cycle, hot so I don't know if that would work with that.) I've been complimented on it several times which makes me happy and just wearing it actually makes me happy. :)
So this morning I go to put on my 'foundation garment' (For those of you who are fellow fat chicks, you know what I'm talking about, you force all the fat into something like a sausage casing to make your dress fall prettily.) For some reason I opted for the over the head method and got stuck in it. I'm standing in my bedroom arms flailing above my head because I can't move. I'm sure I looked like one of those inflatable guys you see in front of like car sales places. (I think SNL or Mad TV did a skit where the woman married one of those guys, it was funny). It was quite the drama for 7:00 in the morning. Ultimately I ended up changing out of that and just wearing regular stuff because once I had it on properly it was just a little too clausterphobic for me.
Yeah, I can't wear those things... they make me feel like I'm about to explode.
ReplyDeleteI refer to it as my "fat sucking undergarment" (coined by another friend). Ugh.
ReplyDeleteI don't have one of those but if I don't lay off the Robins Eggs, I'm going to need one! I have the same problem with this pair of super tight flesh-colored tights that I have. I usually change what I'm going to wear when I think about having to put them on. I bet you were way more comfortable without it!
