No harm done though, since I was quick with a cover story. (see the photo they all saw, attached below).
We were hanging out and a few of them wanted to see some photos I had on my computer. I knew I had a big folder on it with the photos they were looking for, so turned it on and browsed to that folder while they all gathered around.
When I opened the folder, it was in really small 'thumbnail' mode and I noticed one 'Cristi' pic in the mix, but ignored it since it was too small to see what it was just from the tiny thumbnail.
I opened the other pics we were there to see one by one, returning to the main folder after every one. Just as I finished, one of the guys pointed to the thumbnail of the Cristi pic and asked "What's that one?"
Well, it was too late to pretend it didn't exist without making it worse... so I double-clicked on it to open it full screen and just casually said "Oh, that is from halloween last year" without any more explanation.
There were a few laughs (but in a good natured way) and one guy even took over mouse so he could zoom in on the photo and the dress until the portion of it from my chest up filled the screen.
Since I didn't act guilty or ashamed, it was pretty much a non-issue. After a few laughs, I closed the image and we went back to what we were doing.
But now I know that all seven of these guys have seen a photo of me in a full lacy wedding dress, heels, stockings and makeup. Kind of a strange feeling. I can't help but wonder if any of them may also be a CD and a bit jealous of the outfit. :)
