I've had a lot of embarrasing moments; that's life in the Mina lane. This one stands out as a winner, though...
I was heading home from a funeral. Heading back through Beautiful Downtown Burbank, my suitcase and I got vetted together. (It happens.) The poor guy--who was Polynesian, about 6'6" and 260 pounds of muscle--told me to stand in the little box while he opened up my suitcase and rummaged through my bras, panties, a pair of knee-hi hose that I had worn, and a few other femme items (including my trusty Lady Norelco). He wisely decided not to play in the dirty clothing pouch. I mean, this looked like a woman's suitcase, no doubt about it, right down to the scarves I had been given from my late aunt. After much rummaging around, a few questions and a slightly closer examination of my personal person (with eye-makeup, lipstick, and freshly done nails) they let me through. I walked on through to the security checkpoint, my head held high.
Panic? Nah. I actually felt sorta sorry for this poor Governmental employee person that had to look for some sort of illegal chemical or illicit drug in my `lil `ol suitcase (okay, so it's a full size, hard-sided silvertone Samsonite, and thus, little it ain't) at 6 AM. All he found was typical Mina clothing. Had he dug a little deeper, however, he might have found my nail lacquer, some body crème, and a few other femme items.
**giggles**
Well, okay. He did get a
very good look at my pink satin nightie, too…!
Luv 'n hugs,

I had one recently: My wife calls up and asks if I could go pick up her prescription before closing time. I'm very comfortably dressed at the time so I have about 30 minutes to change and drive 5 minutes to the drug store and proceed to get her medicine. As I'm going to pay for it in the drive thru lane I notice that I never took off my nail polish. OH _ _ _ _! Fortunately it was a lite shade of pink and I moved my hands very fast in and out the car window but I think I saw an eyebrow raise a little.
