Actually, Alffe, I've decided to toss my silly pride and go all out on comfort - to heck with what people think! I'm going to see if I can find me a nice cotton burka. Not only would it solve all my problems with clothing, it would solve my problem with hair management and makeup. I wonder how many people would stop to give me donations - or even say hello.

I'll make a deal with you. Let's plan to meet downtown for lunch or dinner. I'll wear my burka if you wear your moo moo. After lunch, we can go shopping along Michigan Avenue or maybe catch a play.
