My Slip Fell Off

I'm one of those women that still wears a slip and hosiery particularly when I want a more polished look.  Sometimes, like today, I'm glad for an extra layer as well.

This morning on my way in to the building from the car, I encountered a co-worker and we walked in together.  I felt something brushing my lower leg but thought it was my heavy coat.  I don't wear it very often and thought that the coat came down longer than I remembered.  We chatted about her daughter's drama with clothes this morning as we made our way into the building.

We continued to chat as we hung our coats up and were joined by another co-worker.  Just as I realized that it couldn't be my coat brushing my legs the second co-worker commented on how nice I looked.  I thanked her as I looked down to see what might be brushing my leg and saw my slip!  It was almost at my ankles by then.  I'm not sure what was keeping it from falling all the way to the floor.  We all had a good laugh to start the day.
