my underwear’s on inside out. No big deal, I know, but it kind of makes me wonder what I was on this morning. I suppose I should be glad I’m wearing any. ---

Are you sure they are yours? ---

I’ve done this. Perhaps more disconcerting is only realizing it at night when I’m undressing for bed, even though I’ve, how can I say this is a delicate manner? After I’ve had several opportunities throughout the day to notice the inside out status of the garment. I think the underwear does it on its own, although I cannot imagine why. ---

I do this occasionally, too. Even worse, I’ve walked around all day with my shirt on backwards, and had someone point out that my tag was sticking out at my throat. ---

**Tastes of Chocolate** (do you?), who else’s would they be? I’m sure I’d notice if they were my boyfriends, and I’m no party animal. Which makes me wonder more…I didn’t do anything crazy last night and I was still that out of it this morning. 🙂 **Kallessa** : I’m glad to note that I noticed it the first opportunity after I got to work. **MissGypsy** : thankfully never did that. Almost, but I caught myself walking out the door. ---

I did the “wearing the T-shirt backwards” thing the first three times I wore this particular shirt, which I’d bought on eBay. I naturally wore it with the big design in front – then realized one day that it was the kind with the main design on the back, and just a small logo over the right, er, chest-ular area. :smack: ---

> [@VenusProbe](#): > > or possibly who? 😃 > > So are they designed in a way that it’s easy to accidently put them on inside out or did you have to space out big time? 😛 Thankfully they are fairly easy to put on inside out, although there is only a pattern on the outside. The funny thing is, I usually check. I like cute undies, so I try to make sure the design’s out. And no, no one sees them (at least not until I get home!) ---

Better than discovering you’ve put your underwear on _over your pants_. That happens to me all the time. Very embarrassing when I go to church. (Just kidding. I haven’t gone to church in ages. 😃 ) Anyhoo… ---

> [@MissGypsy](#): > > I do this occasionally, too. Even worse, I’ve walked around all day with my shirt on backwards, and had someone point out that my tag was sticking out at my throat. I have done this, sort of. I had my shirt on inside out. My former coworker pointed it out to me, and I, being the type of person I am, said, “Oh, it’s meant to be like that”. :o Don’t think I fooled him, though. Oh, and I have gotten in the habit of wearing undies inside out. No, not on purpose…I just can’t get my eyes focused in the mornings. Usually I just hope they’re right and find out when I get to work if they’re on correctly. More often than not, they aren’t. ☹
