On a daily basis, I like to have a 20.00 on me. But since I'm going to the Casino on the weekend, (Hi Huk, Shadoe, and Deanofwords!) so I went to the bank machine last night, I have about 140.00 on hand. I usually take 80-100 for the slots and use my debit for meals and purchases.

Well, how about if we pitch in and make up a question for Lori . . . since something important must have taken over the day for her. Hope everything is okay, Lori, hon. Ok, here's my fill-in question for her: What was the strangest fashion statement you ever made? What year was it? My answer: Given the decade of the 70s, this type of clothing was really was the norm, and rather tame. I was in college at the time, and it was during the years of protest against the Viet Nam War--70 and 71, in particular. What comes to mind is this red and purple cotton knit outfit (bell bottom pants and long-sleeved pullover top----red background with purple swirls throughout) that I believe I wore way too often. Wish I had a picture of it. I hope some of you have pix to share. Just curious if some of you did the nail thing:

ACK! That's the worst case of nail fungus I ever saw!!! I'll confess to having a horrible Afro-style perm in the late '70s. I'll further confess to having very long (not THAT long) red fingernails when I got married. Now if THAT didn't tip everyone off to the fact the relationship was doomed, what would??? LOL

Oh goodness, never thought I'd share this one. My aunt is five years older, and during high school in the late 80's she was into heavy metal. Jeans or leather pants, metal concert t-shirts, big hair, ack it gets worse, studded leather bracelets and matching choker. Now sis and I were younger (I think I was maybe 11 or 12) and we were off to Disneyland. Mom and granny decided it'd be cute to dress us all alike so off we went to Disneyland. Sis and I with our hair teased out a few feet, leather pants,studded bracelets, knee high suede boots, and Ozzy t-shirts all in black. My only defense is it wasn't my idea! I'm a jeans and tshirt kinda girl (actually the Ozzy tshirt was the only part of that outfit I liked!) and was more than a little embarrassed to be dressed up like that, lol.

Wargod, was it one of those Ozzy/metal type shirts that had the 3/4 length white sleeves, with the band name down the arm? That would have put the outfit over the top. LOL Methinks Seamonkey is AFRAID to share her most terrible fashion statement!!

I've buried the photo and only those closest to me know this... In eighth grade, about a week before class photos, I decided that I really, really wished my bangs were longer, y'know... to look 'cooler' in my eternal immortalization of age 13. My bangs at the time were those that cover all of the forehead, fanning out from a central, triangular location and stopping just above the eyebrows. Knowing I didn't have the time for them to grow as long as I wanted them for the photo, I came up with the most brilliant idea of SHAVING OFF the bangs I had, and cutting new ones from the hair behind. For the next three months, I had a huge bald patch right above my eyebrows. By huge, I mean at least 5cm x 5cm. What's that -- an inch and a half, maybe? You have no idea how cruel kids can be. It was mortifying. Not sure if this counts as a 'fashion statement', per se... it does, however, count as ABSOLUTE. WORST. IDEA. EVER. It took four years for the kids at school to forget.

When I was in Jr. High School (way back in the late 60's) I wore a paisely dress with flourescent orange socks on a regular basis. My sister wouldn't walk to school with me...still brings it up once in awhile and I'm 49 years old. Geesh, ya think she'd get over it already! I wonder if Lori spent the $19.55 that she had in her wallet the other day and is now stuck washing dishes in some seedy restaurant because she couldn't pay the bill...uh oh...seriously, I hope all is well with our Daily Poller!

Lol, Huk! Good morning, Lori, hope all's well! Ah, the 60s. I loved my paisley dress with the nehru collar and bell sleeves. It was green with paisley swirls of aubergine, black, and other colors. I wish I had kept it or at least a picture of it!

Good morning everyone!! Thank you so much to those who were concerned where I was yesterday. Real life stepped in and I was unable to post a question. I missed you all! Ok, here are the results of: How much money is in your wallet/purse right this second?
Less than $10 | 13 | Between $10 and $20 | 10 | Between $20 and $50 | 9 | Between $50 and $100 | 10 | $100 or More | 8 | Today's question is: Not counting family, do you have a close, tell anything, completely trustworthy friend...who is a member of the opposite sex? My answer is yep!

No (Nice you are back Lori!). Herckle, I'd have to give some thought to that fashion statement question. LOL - I know I had some bad fashion sense when I was younger, but I wasn't making a statement.
