'You can dress her up...

But you can't take her out.'
First, I would like to thank A for agreeing to contribute to my blog with embarassing stories...now onto the shame!

'A' had many a wardrobe malfunction while visiting CurryLand last week. Last year when she was here she did fine so she is not totally at blame.

Malfuntion #1 - we were all getting ready to go to the grocery store. A was putting on her shoes and then 'Rip!' The right knee of my pants she was wearing gave way. She had to quikcly change into a different pair because showing any leg would be very risque. Later that day she almost ripped the second pair while picking up Abi. We decided that the legging style pants called 'churidars' were not for her.

Malfunction #2 - This one involved a saree pictured above. Sarees are not the easiest to put on or to wear for long periods of time (and then there is the age old question, 'how do I go to the bathroom in this?') Anyways we were going out to dinner and A wanted to dress up a bit. I wrapped her up in one of my sarees (so I have to take most the blame for this malfunction since I am not a professional saree wrapper). I tediously pleated and pinned the saree just right, it took me 20 minutes and then we walked out to take pictures and then jump in the car to go to dinner and the entire thing starts falling off of her. I've heard horror stories of this but personally have never witnessed it. Fortunately we were not out in public when it happened. A change back into pants and a top - but not the 'churidar' pants those are off limits remember.

Malfunction #3 - now this one is my personal fave because it actually did happen in public and leads to a very funny story about a public bathroom that I will post later. So A was sight seeing out in the Rut...there is this really cool graveyard that we wanted her to see. Anyways she was walking along and accidently steeped on the hem of her drawstring pants...well then the pants got loose and started slowly creeping down - now A does not have hips so she was in a very precarious position of losing her pants...retying her pants in public is not an option because it would appear very immoddest (but then again no pants would be worse!) so A saves it by yanking the waist up and tucking them under her tank top and we quickly get to a bathroom...

BTW - I hope you all are on the edge of your seats waiting to read about the bathroom we visited.
