Ellen,
I don't get half undressed to pee. I drop my pants to my knees, pull
down my panties and sit. At they point I notice that the seams are the
wrong way and laugh because my panties are inside out. I am not even a
1/4 undressed. I don't fix it because it would require me to remove my
shoes, my pants, my underwear and then turn them inside out, put the
panties back on, pants back on shoes back on. The whole time feeling
VERY vulnerable. I wear tennis shoes or crocs at work. the tennis
shoes are a pain to take off and put back on... The one time I have
corrected the inside out situation I was wearing crocs and it was
easier (not only were they inside out they were back to front and I
have been getting a wedgie all day so it was worth fixing.)
Ok maybe I don't get dressed in the dark... I just don't pay
attention. I am up, showered, dressed and out the door with my 4 year
old in less than an hour in the morning. There is a ritual involving
underwear in our household. I let Lesley pick my panties. She is given
a choice of 3 panties and picks what she wants me to wear. If they
have a pattern I never put them on inside out .. .very obvious.
However if they are a solid color I sometimes miss that they are
inside out. I would much rather pay attention to Lou Lou than my
panties. I also don't fold my undies... They are cotton briefs not
thongs because why wear anything if only wearing a string. They are
dumped in a drawer with little to not rhyme or reason (sometimes they
even change the drawer that they are stored in depending on who puts
away the laundry).
As for the developer thing... I am a techie and assume everyone else
is the world is one too. I guess you makes assumptions too. I work
with a bunch of SOFTWARE developers not real estate developers. When I
posed the what do I mean by developer to my husband (a fellow techie)
- he looked at me like I was stupid then said person who writes code.
I asked if he ever thought "person who builds buildings" and he said
NEVER. No on our radar.
Different frames of reference.
