(When Cassie reluctantly agrees to be an elf for the mall Santa she is given a tiny costume to wear - a short green dress, gold slippers, a Santa-style hat and tiny, size 4 tights that are too small and don't even reach her waist. When she is hoisted into the air in a harness to swing over the crowd at the mall and announce Santa's arrival - disaster strikes...)
Cassie gasped as her tights rolled down, catching on her thighs... The tights slid farther down and everyone in the entire mall seemed to be staring up at her. "I can see the elf's underpants," one little boy called, pointing at her. Suspended above the ground, Cassie watched as several mothers covered their children's eyes.

ReplyDeleteThat happened to me at least year's Christmas party (minus the elf part). Thankfully I was able to make a quick exit and waddle to the car before they fell to my ankles.
Here's my Christmasy teaser.
Oh thank you I truly needed a good laugh. My TT: http://www.rundpinne.com/2010/12/teaser-tuesdays-love-me-to-death.html
