Around here, I don't call 'em pajamas, I call them JAMMIES! If you have no idea what I'm talking about then click here. But anyways, the other day when the world was supposed to end via snowfall, I decided to do the jammie shuffle. So I pulled out my footie jammies even though I have vague memories of me not liking them in my younger years but since I bought them as an impulse buy (adult footie jammies for 10 beans! I couldn't pass that up!) 2 years ago and I haven't really put them to much use I decided to whip them out. I was blindly following the newscasters who were predicting power outages and though I wasn't really catching their drift due to the lack of snow fall outside my windows, I wanted to prepare for the worst. So what better way to snuggle up then in my footies. Plus, mine glow in the dark! I may not be embarrassed over my sleepwear, but don't worry, Ed was for the both of us. So here's how my night went:
It was the worst.
Had my power gone out, I would have been snug as a bug, because those things get hot. And this is coming from someone whose room is like 40 degrees. I was toasting. So in the middle of the night, I stripped down and changed into my normal jammies which consist of.... wait for it..... nothing! Psych, I typically sleep in a t-shirt and sweats so that's what I put on. The next night I decided to give it another go. It wasn't so bad given that I removed several blankets that I typically sleep with, but then I discovered I like having that weight on me. And the footie part got all twisted around my foot which I very distinctly remember hating when I was little. The jammies aren't really all they are cracked up to be. And while little babies and toddlers slay me in their jammies, 20-some year old adults, just don't pull it off as well.
See what I mean? Although the heel do add a touch of class!
Although should I move to Chicago, or experience another "devastaing" snow storm, or go camping with Sarah Palin, I'll def be bringing the jammies along. So for now they stay.
xoxox, you know you love me!
