Yesterday I watch some episodes of Oprah in Indonesian TV channel, and I just discover what that means. And I realized, sometimes I'm in the shlumpadinka moments, and that's quite often. <BR/>Nice blog, you have!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7731159552335760887.post-15063671072160605222008-04-29T10:05:00.000-04:002008-04-29T10:05:00.000-04:00I, too, had never heard of a shlumpadinka, though ...I, too, had never heard of a shlumpadinka, though I could serve as an ad for the look. Actually, my best shlumpakinka outfit is old, illfitting pajamas under a huge dead-dog-gray flannel bathrobe and slippers made of blackened moose hide. Uncombed hair, of course. It's my favorite work outfit. The opposite snazzarazz outfit is a white wool suit, yellow-green silk shell, silver shoes and purse, green hat with a "brush" and buckle set with brilliants on one side, and a long green, gray, and pale green fringed scarf draped around my shoulders. A "killer" outfit that won a prize in the hat contest at Malice Domestic one year.Monica Ferrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03722045113589668612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7731159552335760887.post-49224569999098703462008-04-25T22:18:00.000-04:002008-04-25T22:18:00.000-04:00I never heard this.

In fact, one of the bad things about having a book signing in my local Starbucks was losing my anonymity. I want to be able to write there with slightly greasy (really, really slightly) and baggy sweats. Oh well, such is the cost of fame. Little tiny bit of fame.<BR/><BR/>Great post, Kathyrn.<BR/><BR/>Am I the only one not at Malice? Sniff, sniff.Terri Thayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09953154767532970027noreply@blogger.com
