Socks and high heels dance party!

So I went shopping yesterday for back to work stuff and the pride and joy of this excursion is a pair of nude heels. HOT! They are about a half size too small but the size up is way too big. So, they need to be stretched out. For those of you who are not in the know about such things, the best way to do this is to put leather cleaner on them to soften the leather and then wear the shoes around with thick socks for a while.

So I get two pairs of Mark's thick sweat socks (black) and I stuff my feet in there. OUCH!

Gavin: Ohhhh! You look so fancy Mom!

I figure a good way to really work them in is to dance in them. Plus this will keep Gavin entertained. So I put on the tunes, full blast and start busin' a move around the livingroom.

Now, just so you have a full mental image, let me describe my look in greater detail:
I haven't done my haor and it's a big floppy mop because of the humidity. No makeup (ew!). Old white tank top with holes in it. Pink zip up sweatshirt. Capri yoga pants. TWO PAIRS of men's black gym socks, and nude leather 4 inch heels. And I am GIVIN' 'ER on the dancefloor AKA my livingroom carpet.

DING DONG!

Oh shit. The door. OH MY GOD WHATDOIDOWHATDOIDOWHATDOIDO!!!!!!!! Ok, it's too late. Whoever is at the door had to walk right past the livingroom window. There is no way they didn't see me. No way out. I answer the door. As is.

Guy at the door (looking me straight in the face): Good morning Ma'am. (Hands me a card) My name is Kevin and I'm with Electrolux blah blah blah...
Me: Mmm hmm... Yes we have a central vac, no it's not an electrolux, yes I'm happy with it, no I'm not concerned about suction...
Kevin: Ok well you have me card blah blah blah. Have a nice day Ma'am.

I close the door. HOW did he not laugh? HOW? He can't NOT have noticed. I bet he can't WAIT to get back to the office to tell all his work buddies about this.
