I am a late developer
Baptised when I was 10
And yes, those are my legs extending
Extending out the end….

Being there is really not at all about the clothing you are wearing, my good man. You know this.

I know, but why do they all stare at me in my jeans and sneakers? Maybe I should wear the ones without holes in them?…I was just trying to be cool and holy at the same time? They just didn’t seem to get it Ed…..fuddy duddys all of them…..

Ed, thankyou so much for directing me to the little-known MISFIT STORE….I feel I have at last found a welcoming home. A place where I can embrace my inner mediocrity! Exercise my non-competitive streak! Dare to be indifferent! Display my Misfit Pride!……Harvey made a personal call to welcome me Ed……at 3am…so aglow was I couldn’t get back to sleep…..remember that person who got a call from Yoko at 3am?…I now know how they felt…..always leave your phone on at night Ed…never know what celebrity will call at 3am

LOL. No accounting for Harvey’s unbridled enthusiasm. He gets very excited about new arrivals; probably because they tend not to stick around very long…

Even though I was still half asleep I could feel Harvey’s bubbling effervescence coming down the wire to me…He said Murray couldn’t call as he was attending another difficult misfit at the time…
Other readers will wonder what the heck we’re talking about Ed….

The shoes appear not to be a misfit. However, I am wondering what color pantyhose you would don with them, Don?
LikeLike
You’re right, they are not from the Misfit Store. I didn’t see any shoes there. Maybe the church hires them out for baptisms, weddings, funerals?…..now the pantyhose I prefer the allover look, silver in this case, so silver in spandex (maximum stretchability). You would then have silver dress, silver legs and silver shoes. I should be a baptismal dress consultant Ed……
