I was in the dressing room at the Temple getting ready to leave for the night. My friend Janet was in the stall next to me. I was wearing boots so I had on a pair of very "Special" socks, I mean who cares what socks you wear when you have boots on , right? They were blue with kitty cats wearing Santa hats, I got them for a steal of 25 cents a few years ago. I mean who in their right mind is going to pass up that deal........even if they did have hideous kitty cats on them.
As I was thinking about my BEAUTIFUL socks I thought my friend Janet would love to see them as well so I I showed them to her. I stuck HALF my leg under the stall and said, "Janet you know your jealous of these kitty cat socks!" I know that is so appropriate in the Temple, I just make good choices like this all the time, they just come to me. Anyhoo after I said it Janet didn't say anything, I was shocked because it was quite hilarious in my "special" opinion.
I finish dressing not thinking a thing of it and left my stall. As I walk out I see Janet all dressed in white.........."Janet what are you doing?" Janet says "Just waiting to get dressed." "Oh............................well that explains a few things" I decide that this would make a perfect time to go potty, so I did, laughing inside all the way there.........what had I just done? I wait for Riley and tell him the story, he just looks at me like he knew it already, in fact it was as if he expected it from me.
When my good friend Janet comes out I tell her the story and she can't stop laughing, she says "Only you Lindsey." IT's true things like this only happen to people like me who decide to show off their kitty socks in the Temple dressing room, in other words Idiots!
I have learned my lesson and I'm sure that poor, mysterious YOUNG girl in that dressing room posing as Janet learned something as well, even crazy people go to the Temple:) Sorry fake Janet!

it was me in the stall next to you, I just didn't say anything because I actually was jealous
I was in the temple dressing room once in Europe and someone starts trying to open the door. I said in English there is someone in here and then in French in case they didn't speak English. Then the door was finally forced open and this little old lady came in the small, small, stall with me and started changing. I was standing in my undies a little shocked but just rolled with it. I figure that people can just do that at the temple and that is all about having unconditional love for those "special" people, just what the temple is about.
Thanks! I so needed that laugh today!
Hi Lindsey! our roommate Lyndsy's last name was Carlson. I've tried looking for her too. I know she got married to her crazy boyfriend (remember him... the hair dresser...haha) and she was teaching 2nd grade the last time I saw her about 4 years ago. Hope you are doing well. You have such an adorable family. take care.
Fake Janet probably chuckled all the way home. You put a smile on her face that will last for days. When you said that Riley looked at you like he already knew what you were going to say I thought you were going to say that he had heard the incident repeated while he was waiting for you from this girl telling the guy next to him about a crazy girl who wore kitty socks to the temple. Even if Riley didn't hear the story many others will and they will all enjoy it thanks to you.
I am sure the lady next to you was hiding in her stall patiently until she was free and clear of the crazy sock lady;). I enjoyed the funny story.
Tara, what a funny ! I'm sure that little old lady was completely in her element.

i wish i could've been "fake janet". she's quite lucky, even if she doesn't know it, to have come in contact with such a rare comic! I'm sad she didn't at least laugh, it was worth that at THE VERY LEAST...
