A much nicer memory than Mrs. Ingabo's scent! :)Cyrsti Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17176333752728572030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394500434240060127.post-89284033824708461112018-03-29T14:49:51.860-04:002018-03-29T14:49:51.860-04:00Dear Aunt Violet,
I'm sure your freshly-color...Dear Aunt Violet,<br /><br />I'm sure your freshly-colored hair and nails will go a long way in making you visible on Saturday. So much for blending in, I guess - but do make sure you totally blend in that hair color! :-)<br /><br />You have reminded me of my 5th grade teacher, an older woman who kept her hair dyed. I'm sure that she was using a standard black color, but it always came out with purple overtones, which was most evident for the first week after she'd applied it. My mother used to enjoy gossiping with the other mothers about Mrs Ingabo's hair and general appearance, as if this older woman really believed she was fooling everyone to think she was much younger. During one of our trips to the polio vaccine dose events (remember those sugar cubes?), we were in line behind her. When she was asked her age by the nurse, my teacher answered, "39". My mom completely lost it, laughing so hard that we had to leave the gymnasium and get in the end of the line.<br /><br />By the way, Mrs. Ingabo's scent was still in the air when we made our way back to the registration table, as she went overboard on the perfume just as she did everything else. <br /><br />I've seen quite a few older cross dressers who've reminded me of my old 5th grade teacher. While I don't laugh at them, I have thought about issuing some of them rain checks.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15951206717208424386noreply@blogger.com
