What do you get when you throw in a cozy restaurant, four glowing girls, glass of wine, drama from all our lives, and a four hour span? You are promised to leave with an arm load of mindful/mindless treasures.....
After a few glasses, Mrs. TV brought forth the best of warnings!
Being prepared for the worst is just a way of life. Driven by the bubbles and a classic SNL episode, we were all ears. Mrs. TV's warning reached down into the core of our beings and resulted in all of us running home and digging through our photos.
Mr. and Mrs. TV had just covered the tragic subject of 'what to do if the other went missing'. Before their conversation was over, news broke and pictures-galore flooded their TV screen. A woman had gone missing and her husband was clearly distraught. Distraught.... yes..... because she was missing.... probably. What clearly devastated him was the wrong picture had been released for the whole world to see.
In her 80's bangs, fuchsia lipstick, over-sized sweatshirt, and static-stricken hair- he knew that even if she was given the chance to return home, she would succumb to fierce public humiliation!!!!! He would be held responsible for letting the wrong picture leak.
Mrs. TV knew that she was going to do everything in her power to avoid such an embarrassment.
So, while we have the chance, be prepared. Go home, dig through all your pictures, and choose wisely. Gather those near and dear and show them which picture you would want released for the world to see. This could be the difference between life and....... life after the rotating ugly picture.
That night... in a cozy Italian restaurant... after a few glasses of wine... we all vowed to save ourselves from public disgrace. Each one of us has our 'Just Incase' picture safely displayed and ready to swing over to the police at any given time.
Choose wisely my dear blog-grazers. You just never know.........
