    Hello from the Florida Panhandle

    as the title says........ hi any other kilties here going to Panama City games or the P'Cola games? Recently started wearing my kilts and have had a mixed review so far.....I work at a Dr. office most are okay with it but there are a few " WOW, why are you wearing dress/skirt? " " Do you play the bagpipes " or the funniest ones are " mommy why is that guy wearing a skirt? well, he must be gay or something " lol, i just shrug it off and keep working, kids nowadays have no idea about their heritage or cultural background. But hey, atleast i am comfortable, right??????

    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
