I'm a Virtual Homely Coming Dance participant!

That durn Mindy of Primitiques 'n Poetry at http://rockinm.blogspot.com just had to remind me of how homely I am by invitin' me to her stupid (read: "Quite clever. Wish I'd thought of it!) blog online dance. Let me give you some history about how this first annual virtual insanity came about.

At Warrenton twice a year there's this antique and junk fair. (I know, I know - you've never heard of it and especially not on this blog.) Anyway, on the last Thursday night of each sale the Junk Gypsy Company of College Station puts on a Junk-o-rama Prom. Participants dress up crazy and act crazier. A good time is had by all, at least that's what all the pictures I've seen of the Prom suggest.

So cute little Mindy decides us homely, junking bloggers should have our own pity prom online, since we can't be at Warrenton to dance at the real one. Mindy has even tempted us with prizes to show her our weird ways.
Mindy, please take note of my high-heeled, high-topped sneakers (you may borrow, girlfriend), the Christmas-tree-skirt skirt, and the cowhide I bought at Warrenton Tuesday. Send me your prettiest durn denim bracelet as my prize.

Thank you. Thank you very much. The Texas Woman has left the building.
