    Tutu....????????

    So today I'm at the local post office to pick up my mail. Its the social center of town since there's no mail delivery in our little town.

    I ran into a lady I know who I haven't seen in a while. She's and RN and tells me she's working at the agency I used to work at and said it was frustrating that when she finally got on there I'd already gone. Then she told me I'm still spoken highly of there....

    I was wearing short pants today for a number of reasons...but I'm beaming at the compliments...suddenly she stopped, looked down at my pants and said, "Where's your tutu? Why aren't you wearing your tutu!?"

    Bit my tongue and said, "KILT!!"

    She said that's what she meant....a kilt....

    First time someones called a kilt a tutu that I know of...

    I give her points for creativity.

    Just another reminder that you, as many of us kilties, are living in the US.

    Cheers,

    You should have risen up on your toes and spun a pirouette in an elegant display of your tutu... and your two, too.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    Sorry - blundered in here by mistake. I thought that this was an article about Desmond - obviously I am wrong.
