Lighten Up

OK. Discernment is important, and questions of where and how we serve God are important, but sometimes we have to address other issues.

Like underpants.

Specifically, Days of the Week underpants.

One of my favorite friends (the one with whom I'm running the Pig) and I were talking about Days of the Week underpants (DotWU). I have two sets, but they're getting quite old. She doesn't have any, but wants some.

These suckers are harder to find than you might think. And some of them are EXPENSIVE! Not to mention a little boring.

I should probably take a minute to explain my philosophy of underwear: the tackier it is, the luckier it is. Because of my love of college football, and my cheerleading days, I consider red underwear the luckiest. In college, my roommate bought me a red pair with silver threads, and feathers on the sides. THAT was lucky underwear!

So, I'm thinking about my awesome friend, and these quirky underpants we're searching for, and I'm starting to think... why not MAKE them? Not from scratch, but either stamp or paint or iron-on the wording, and then GO NUTS with the decoration.

I would love suggestions from any of you crafty people out there.

(In the interest of full disclosure, this is the one girlfriend that Mr. M thinks could get arrested with me one day. She's incredibly fun. And when I have hairbrained ideas, and my other girlfriends reign me back in, she's standing there say, "Yeah, that's a good idea!")
