Two For Tuesday – 173
We’ve often mentioned how we sometimes receive inappropriate gifts from friends and relatives who aren’t familiar with our home life. It’s not that the gifts aren’t thoughtful. Many times, they were carefully selected and purchased well before the event. It’s just that they simply don’t fit our lifestyle. We always accept them graciously; but they are an interesting window into other people’s lives.Presumably, they are buying things that would be useful to their own personal situations.
Here are a couple of pictures which illustrate the situation. In one, California Girl is wearing some sleepwear that she from a relative as received as a birthday gift. In the other, she is wearing an ensemble that I gave her as a present for a special occasion. Can you tell which is which?
Holy Crap! It’s a moo moo! Do they think ur an old lady? I know how you feel. Every Christmas I’d get a different Bible, and then I’d chuck it into my closet never to be seen again until I moved out and my parents cleaned out my room, most of them not even out of thier packaging. I mean it’s polite to not say anything but this isn’t a tie, this is a freaking MOO MOO! Can you move in that thing?
Not too difficult really
but the first picture almost achieves the impossible – making CG look unsexy! Give those things away to a charity shop now!
Oh my! Well if anyone can make an utterly UN sexy outfit look sexy its California girl!
i love the Photos you took for comparison and think its great she put the outfit to use!
Maybe you can use these sort of gifts during some play and rip them off her muahahaha!
Oooooo, the red one even has matching slippers! Classy! How come none of the outfits you got CG have them? haha
Seriously, that red number isn’t even kitchy enough to save for a Halloween costume, esp the kind you guys wear. I see a trip to a thrift shop in your near future.
Sarah: Much like your Bible, it was in the closet still in the plastic until California Girl unwrapped if for our photo shoot. It’s not the sort of thing that she world ever lounge or sleep in. Even when it’s a bit chilly, we’ve got enough blankets so we can sleep in naked. And we’ve got a couple of nice robes in case we have to get up for anything. We don’t even use those if the kids are not around.
P.S. She could move but just barely. I don’t know how whoever made it expected people to sleep in it.
Lapis Ruber: She has gotten some conservative sleepwear (pajamas) before bit nothing like this. It’s warm but completely unsexy. I doubt she’ll ever wear it again.
Viemoira: I think what she was doing had a lot to do with that. We didn’t even want a plain shot of it on our blog. We both though the BJ action was an interesting way to do the comparison. I doubt I could talk her into wearing it again even of I promised to rip it off of her with my teeth.
Mountain Girl: So she doesn’t throw them at me.
And, as ugly as they are, they aren’t really even comfortable. And remember our Halloween costumes usually have an interesting theme. Pimp/ho, barbarians in skins, hippies from the 60s, etc. Nothing so bland as a guy dressed like an old woman.
Well, it doesn’t look like you’re turned off by either of them!
Chickie: It’s hard to make California Girl look unsexy; but that red nightgown just about did it. I don’t know what I would doo if she regularly wore things like that.
I totally like the outfit in picture 2 better.
Rage: So do I! The first one is probably not the best gift for a woman that has as much sex as we do; but that’s not something that we talk about. Perhaps we plan too much around sex…No. Not possible.
