"OTT" (Over the Top) That's me. Yesterday was Spirit Day at the VA. The theme was "Pet Pride"--right up my alley. I made a modified "PetMum" complete with photo, streamers, and bling. OTT. I also blingged up a photo travel mug. OTT. I also took a Bandit Brag Book (everyday ott). I was set to razzel-dazzle with my awesome baby.
Arrived early to my first meeting. No one remembered Spirit Day. Went to my Ward. No one remembered Spirit Day. Went to my second meeting. No one remembered. Went to lunch and the Canteen (retail store). No one remembered.
In the entire hospital I saw NO ONE that remembered Spirit Day. I take that back--there were several Hawaiian shirts worn--last months Spirit Day theme.
Rather than take my PetMum off (it was pinned to a 3/4 sleeve lightweight Zebra print sweater over a lightweight purple top--picking up the purple and zebra theme of the PetMum--and I was burning up all day!) I wore it all day. It was my Jr High School "Odd Man Out" Dream come to life. Back then I would have been mortified, hidden it, and slunk to t hiding place for myself. Luckily for me I am sooooo much more mature now. ;~)
Not only did I embrace being the only one that remembered--I posed outrageously everytime someone asked about it--and now I'm brag-posting on FB! :~)
Okay, so maybe "mature" was a euphamusim. LOL
About Me
- Loulymar
- My bags are packed and I'm always ready to seek out an adventure with Bandit and Moggy in tow. Bandit is my thirteen year old Chinese Crested, who I frequently call The Bald One or The BaldOne Boy (like he was one of the Baldwin Brothers). Moggy’s full name is Pip-Moggy. He’s my two year old gansta-resuce kitty. I couldn’t decide between Pip (which are the spots on die and domino tiles) and Moggy (or Moggie when I mistakenly thought he was a she), so I combined the two. Moggy refers to the British term for "cat of unknown parentage .” So in essence, I have an almost bald dog, and I’ve named my cat “Spot.”
