Random Question of the Week #3


In tribute to my favorite Seattle store Fireworks and the awesome book I bought there years ago entitled "What If?", I am posing a question to my readers this week inspired from its pages:

"If you suddenly found yourself at work stark naked and standing in front of all your coworkers, what would you say?"

Let the hilarity ensue!

*Editor's note: I once asked this question of my unflappable stepdad, hoping to catch him in a moment of consternation. I failed. He cheerfully replied with hardly a moment's thought, "That's easy - 'Hey, guys, didn't you get the memo?'" I can NEVER get the best of him!

Well, let's see... I would either say, "Laundry day" or "I really didn't have anything to wear!". Caught in the moment I would probably forget those two things, however.

And Jim's response totally sounds like him!

Meredith, I love it! You are so funny. I am truly not sure I would say anything at that horrific moment - I'd be too busy trying to hide behind the nearest (and largest) copier or file cabinet. I have had so many dreams just like that!

Hey, you said it was "Dress like you are on vacation" day. It just so happens my vacation is on a nude beach!

I asked my husband this question and he immediately responded: "Crap, I shouldn't have given my ex-wife that voodoo doll!"
So from his response I'm left wondering if voodoo spells can make people show up naked at work, and if I'm actually his second wife... Hmmmmm....

Michelle, Jason, Jim, and Meredith, you crack me up!!!

Of all people, I'm the one who should have a response at the ready -- after all I am the one who discovered I'd forgotten my skirt when exiting my truck at my morning park & ride! I have some experience in reality with this dream, people! But alas, I, too, would have to shoot from the hip. I'd start with humming the tune from "The Age of Aquarius" from the play "Hair," and then ... simply die from embarrassment.
