A Long Story About "The Shirt"!

The traveling Intercourse PA shirt arrived here on Friday, delivered personally by the previous winner, Leslie (of Leslie and Halas).

When it came to taking a photo of the The Shirt, I tried really hard to take all of your suggestions into consideration. Suggestions like "I can't wait to see you rock the shirt", "I want to see you top Joanne's photo", and of course, some ideas about accessorizing. So I put a lot of thought into trying to do justice to The Shirt. You know me, I don't do anything half-way!

First, I tried on The Shirt, hoping for inspiration and to see what I had to work with. It was quite a sobering experience. The Shirt is very large and very unflattering.

Next, I proceeded to gather together an array of accessories which might add some allure. At Yappy Hour Friday night, stillettos were suggested. So, stillettos. Also red fishnet stockings, a feather boa, a chain belt, and long dangling rhinestone earrings.
The results were somehow less than glamorous.

Shaken, less confident, and frankly exhausted, (but still determined), I looked again at The Shirt, hoping that it might guide me in the type of accessories that would show it off to its best advantage. And sure enough, inspiration finally came!
I know I've set an impossibly high bar for the next recipient, but I hope that my willingness to totally humiliate myself publicly like this will inspire all of you to keep the laughs coming.

The next Snap Caption & Post photo will be coming right up. But first, JD and I need to take a little nap.

PS: Don't worry...the shirt will be washed before I pass it on!

Then I tried to explain about winning that intercourse shirt and then posing with it on - he remarked that he was really glad that I'm not that funny - lol.
