eccentric FOD [1]

[celticdragonfly]

I should have put this up as a FOD a while ago, but I didn't. I just recently completed this: http://tiajudy.com/bonnet.htm

I *like* it. A friend's comment was that it was "too matronly". Well, I'm a matron. I've been wearing snoods recently to get the growing-out hair off my face in the heat of the summer, and to keep it from blowing in my eyes. This works very well, too. And I like it.

I think I need to give in more to my eccentric side, and keep dressing and accessorizing just as I feel like it.

[1]FOD = "Finished Object Dance"

I see FOD and think Foreign Object Damage. Karl will understand this.

I understand that, too. It's all about context.

I was picking Karl up from work on Tuesday, and yesterday I was discussing the big anti-FOD posters they have all over the outside of his workplace. Some of them are pretty over-the-top. He talked about what a big deal they make of it with the assembly line guys. It got a bit confusing until he clarified in that context they're talking about leftover bolts and such left in the engine, and it means "Foreign Object Debris" in that context!

Foreign Object Damage sounds like what happens in certain wrestling matches, typically involving chairs and/or cheese-graters. ;)

Cool bonnet! Yay you for finding--and sticking to--your own style!
