Dare of the Week


Okay, here is the much-anticipated first weekly challange. I think it should work like this-- When and if you complete the dare you will write about your experience. Next friday or saturday I will pick someone from those who responded to invent the next week's challange. That person will then pick the next week's inventor and so on.

Here is your mission...Wear something that is completely out of character for you (perhaps some bright red lipstick for rachael (or any of us really I guess) maybe a mesh and foam hat for camille) to a place where you will be seeing people that you know. Do not make any disclaimers to the people or try to justify your appearance in any way. Write about the way it made you feel and how others reacted to you. This is an exercise in detaching ourselves from our precious images.
This picture of Carson is an example of what a suitable outfit might be.

Good Luck

Couldn'r Elizabeth actually wear the example when completing this dare. I seem to recall her taking it home with her. If Joal will relinquish it for a day that is..This is a great opening dare. It is in harmony with the long hisstory of the Porter girls dressing strangely in public. Could you please try to take a pic of yourselves wearing the item? It might help with visual appreciation of stunt.
