An email from Mississippi
... I just got back from shopping (still have nothing to wear to the reunion). I was in Cato's looking at the summer dress sale, there were these plain white sun dresses and as I was flipping thru to my BIG size, I noticed this one had a little lizard design on it so I flipped back to it and THE LIZARD MOVED!!!!
I stepped back and said to the lady next to me "there is a lizard on that dress". She, then, stepped back and I got a clerk to come over and she shook the dresses and he fell to the floor and she stepped on him and killed him. At least we think it was the same lizard, could be a whole family of them in there.
Needless to say, I didn't find anything in that store to wear either.
See ya in a week, Cherylee

Cheryl,
A live lizard on a white sundress would be really cool. I think you should return to the store and get it.
Hey...I don't know when you sent that letter, but reunion's here.
I've got a closet full of black clothes, you're welcome to shop in Lois' closet if you want!
We have a Cato's here. I'll remember this if I ever go in there...I'll be looking for a dress that comes with a lizard. I think my neice paid 10 bucks for hers..just the lizard, not the dress. A cute little harness on it and tied to a button would be quite a conversation piece. I'm kind of upset that the clerk decided to kill it.
I thought for sure they'd offer you a deal...if not free! You're welcome to come to my closet too. I have outfits for every season/size....when I'm where I should be (I believe they're covered with dust), when I'm 20 lbs over and you know the rest.

I went to Sears in Alton and tried on a dress that was a little too large (that's the truth!) but I liked it. So, I went to Sears in Fairview Heights and found the same dress in the smaller size so I paid for it and brought it home and hung it up in my closet. Something told me to try the dress on the other evening so I did And the stupid ink doo-hickey was still attached. Thankfully, the Alton store removed it for me after I showed them my receipt. Can you imagine? It's Saturday night, I have the dress on and my right arm is sticking straight out to the side because the inker is attached in a way that totally prevents me from relaxing my arm at all! Maybe I could have started a new fad.
Poor little lizzard. I don't kill them because they don't do any harm. They eat misquitos. I think they are funny.
Linda. that would have been hilarious. We could have paraded you through Sears at Alton square, wait for you to set off the alarm, and we would all run like hell.
Cheryl, do you think thats how 'Izod' got its start? I don't think that sales person should have killed it though.I'M afraid I I woulda smacked her just for the heck of it.
