After over 600 posts, and I use labels so I can find them again, I still don't think I ever posted this picture. You can check the label at the bottom if you want to prove me wrong. And I think I speak for everyone when I say "Who doesn't want to do that?" I was sent home from the hospital last year in this jumpsuit. It was made of paper that was hefty baggish enough to look like clothes. From a dumpster.
For my next doctor's appointment I took the belt of my black robe and tied it around my outfit in an effort to look like a black belt who could kick ass. With one foot.
The doctor asked me what I was wearing. I replied that it was what I got at the hospital and was sturdy enough to go up and down stairs on my butt since I had no elevator.
"How long are you going to wear that?"
"I don't know, why?"
"Because it's just to wear home, most people change into real clothes later."
"Oh."
"How long have you been wearing it?"
"Ten days."
Everyone in the room laughed and the doctor insisted on taking a picture of me wearing my paper confection. Needless to say, I covered my face.
Suzy went to the hospital and paid $15,000 dollars and all she got was this lousy paper jumpsuit and an arch in ONE foot.
End of chat.

You are such a tread setter! Who knew! Must be the French in you!!
ReplyDeletewell damn it i was going to say i didn't know you were a kung fu fighter!
ReplyDeleteYeah it looks like a Gee and you are hilarious. At least it wasn't one of those gowns they give you at the Gyno's that wraps around and ties in the front or worse ties in the back.
ReplyDeleteI love how you added a little color with the red cast accessory and the purse, too.
ReplyDeleteYou have such an eye.
That is too funny!
ReplyDeleteYou're look so badass with your black belt.
oh sweet jesus. Reminds me of the time I wore pajamas to school.
ReplyDeletethought they were day wear.
And you wear it well....not many people could pull that look off.
ReplyDeleteI love it!:D love the black belt accent, chic!
ReplyDelete-->How did you break your foot?
ReplyDeleteWow, and here I thought you were wearing a daring, sheer silk jumpsuit. Shows what I know about fashion, huh?
ReplyDeleteShade and Sweetwater,
K
You're so stylish.
ReplyDeleteYou know you're a trend setter if the office staff was wearing the same ensemble the next time you went in.
ReplyDeleteSo, if my sweet diaper bag ever comes, can I borrow that SWEET outfit?!
ReplyDeleteThat jumpsuit is hot.
ReplyDeleteOnly you could pull that off, Suzy!
ReplyDeleteYou know you're in deep when the doc wants to snap a picture of you.
S,
ReplyDeleteAre you hiding your face because you weren't wearing makeup? That would be the #1 reason. Who cares about the paper outfit?
Aloha,
MJ
I have had a long, terrible day, but this made me burst out laughing. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteLMAO dang I thought you took up karate, noW that's funny!
ReplyDeletewow! You actually made it look so stylish!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, what happened to your foot?
No SIR! You didn't really, did you? OMG - too funny.
ReplyDeleteVery very funny, and so well done that I believe you actually wore that.
ReplyDeleteBut with a stilletto on the good foot.
By the way, I'm completely MIA. In case you can't tell.
I know I still owe you a review on kindle. Just jump on my back with the other two monkeys...kay? ;)
Oh shit. I emoticoned you. Now you're going to kick my ass. Again.
I always knew you were a woman who knows that it is the accessories that really make an outfit. Without the belt you would look silly, but with it... now that's a whole different thing.
ReplyDeleteSo, a black belt. That's pretty hard to obtain. Breaking boards, planks, records, a leg. . oh I didn't mean to go there.
ReplyDeleteI thought when saw this picture you had left a karate class with an injury!
So the throw-away jumpsuit! Never thought I'd live to see the day, GLAD would make disposable clothes!
Great post!
Wow! That is the best story. Painfully funny! Thanks for sharing, and ridiculing yourself so I could go to work with a little more skip in my step.
ReplyDeleteWatch out though. This is how Hollywood fads are born. The paper Karate master look may be the next best thing.
methinks suzy kicks ass... WITHOUT using her feet! ;) lol
ReplyDeleteTen days in the paper suit? I hope you took it off once in a while (did it fit over the cast, or should I not ask?) Maybe you can get a few cases of them and start a trend.
ReplyDeleteum the purse. Is it Coach? YSL?
ReplyDeletewhat is it??????
Oh, and I invited Ed's chinese sister over. She'll be here momentarily. Apparently she's busy SCOURING the bloggy universe leaving comments.........
ReplyDeleteI tried to comment from work but got caught, not by anyone important,but caught none the less.
ReplyDeleteI distracted my co-worker by pointing out that we don't have paper jumpsuits, only gowns.
I love the purse.
What's up with the "blog owner approval" thing? Nobody better have been mean to you, me and Dar will have to kick their ass.
ReplyDeleteYes we will hiedi..LOL she has the chinese dudes after her...
ReplyDeleteI came to comment on the bag, too. Cute!
ReplyDeleteWhat's the name of your doctor, and... does he have a blog? Because while YOU'VE never posted this picture...
ReplyDeleteyou're very stylish, dahling!
ReplyDeleteI need a calculator do to the math...I am thinking could send you some clothes for much cheaper.
ReplyDeleteGet well soon!
