Sounds like it was good practice.
Hmm... I think I was just called a Lumpenprole :tongueout just kidding with ya, but you never know who's who in this world :p Maybe one of those workmen out there would appreciate a nice pretty dress instead of those ugly old work jeans!
Me, I like pink lemonade :hugs:

That's just really, really, really neat. Wonder if the kids that deliver my pizza would be so disinterested? I think not, but it would give'em something to talk about.
Hugs,
Melissa:happy:

I was wondering as well so I looked it up on wiki. If wiki is to be trusted then it's just another type of uncouth person. Check for yourself:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumpenprole
In the early summer I had a young man knock on my door wanting to do some work for money. It was fathers day weekend and I was running short on time, but I had to go shopping. I gave him $30 to cut my yard and went shopping, not realy caring of he did the yard or not.
When I came back the yard was cut. So that was good. He kept calling asking for more work for a while, but I have not hired him since.
I've always wanted to hire him to help me move some junk out of the basement, but when he showed up be wearing a loose top and tights/pantyhose.

Thanks!
I was convinced that it was a local colloquial expression and therefore didn't think of looking it up.
The link provided a really in-depth history of the word. I have always been interested in the origin of words.
Best regards,

Well now I have something to share.
it was a weekend away enfemme and had just gotten back to the hotel after a night out of clubbing, it was actually my first makeover and night out
in public and it was fantastic. So after getting back to the hotel I am famished hadnt eaten all day and not that missing a meal or two would hurt me I really needed something to eat. Thank goodness for Late night Pizza Delivery, I called and ordered the special and was told it would be 20 minutes.
That would no way be enough time for me to change and take of all the lovely makeup that Soto (transformationsbyrori) had done such a spectacular job with, sooo being away from home, no one would know me anyway, I just stayed dressed and waited.
It seemed to take forever but when the knock on the door came I about fell out of my chair, my heart just started pounding and I got all shakey, a big difference from being in a club all night and being seen by someone in a room with regular lighting, as eloquently as possible I answered the door and there he was a very nice delivery man and as we made eye contact his smile never changed I took the pizza, set it on the table half way across the room, fumbled in my purse and paid the bill leaving him a nice tip. He said "Thank you Miss and have a lovely evening." a quick wink and that wonderful smile as he turned and walked down the hall.
Did I pass? I would love to have passed but in reality cant fool myself, 6'3" and 275#, wobbly in heels probably not but hey that man made my entire weekend. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Just away from home for sure..
I have yet to be as brave as some of the others here but am working on it.:love:

One repaired ceiling light fixture later, the missus asks me, [I]Well, did he like your green mascara?
Good practice for outing, I think.
Hahaha. Well you sure handled that great but a real woman would have fixed the light herself while balancing the youngun on her sholders!! :) and may think about changing you mascara more often....hate it it when it gets all moldy like that. :D

Alright, now you've exposed me - I'm a suburban hippie housewife. (It was a halogen transformer to be fair.)
Ahhh Haaaaa. That explains the green mascara!! I heard that halogen radiation does excelerate bacteria and mold growth in some makeup products. Hehehe
Love Karren

Mellissa, the girl that delivered the pizza last weekend, complimented me on my outfit. She said, " wow, you look cute in that outfit." Then asked where I got the top from...BJ
