Have you ever briefly ventured outside in your pajamas only to end up embarrassed as h***?

Question

One day last week, I scurried outside in my checkered pj's just long enough to grab the mail and then rushed back inside. During the time I was out there, which wasn't long at all, the young woman and her daughter across the street were getting into their car, at which point I heard the little girl say to her mother in a loud enough voice I could hear what she had said, "Mommy, look at the guy in the clown suit. Can I go over and see if I can get him to laugh at me?" I swear, I about died! Has anyone else ever had a similar experience while in their pj's, nightie, bathrobe, etc.?

Answer 1

let me put it this way,

i went out one time in a robe, nothing underneath (just got out of the shower), to talk to two of my friends (one - a guy) and tripped over a flower pot.

guess what happened? =)

Answer 2

Ummm- when was the last time you have gone to a very early morning sale at a department store? Us Americans somewhere along the line have decided that it's totally appropriate to go outside in our pj's. We have become a society of slouchers. Even yesterday at a gas station there was a 20 something girl with pj pants on pumping her gas. I mean, when does it end? People think it's a joke when laws have to be created to combat inappropriate clothing (ie VERY baggy pants) but I think it is sometimes warranted. Not that running outside quickly to retrieve your mail is wrong- I do stuff in my lounge clothes all the time- but I would never venture farther than my front yard!

Answer 3

Every time I run out somewhere quick like the store to return movies or groceries etc. I always run into someone like that guy I had a crush on in highschool or my boss. It's always when I didn't
wear makeup or wash my hair something like that.
Last winter I slept in and rushed out to take the kids to school in my pj's, didn't brush my teeth hair etc. Of course someone hit my car from behind, I had to stand outside my car in the middle of a busy intersection and wait for the police to file a report, it was horrible!

Answer 4

Sometimes on weekends I wont even change out of my PJ's or brush my hair. I have the nerve to go check the mail and could care less what people think or say.

Answer 5

Yes, had just recently started letting our lab puppy out to do his business without a leash on (we have 5 acres), she decided to start sniffing out birds or what have you and wouldn't come to me when I called her. After about 5 minutes of me calling her I started after her in my PJ's, zebra slippers and my husbands huge coat. Talk about a sight!!! Right as she ran into our neighbors yard I look up and see 2 men standing there taking a break from yard work watching me try to round up our lab who weighs more than half of much as me. I was so embarrassed. Of well, life goes on though.

Answer 6

yea,I have checkered pj's and I went outside to check the mail and I had one of those old school V-neck white t's and I had just gotten out of bed and my hair was screwed up and one the hottest woman I have ever seen in my life was out side at my neighbors.....yea.

Answer 7

No, but I have dashed outside in my pj's to take out garbage or grab mail, too. Someone is always out there - someone always sees.

Answer 8

I go out in my PJ's all the time...even the grocery store, I'm not gonna get out of them if I need to run to the store late at night...who cares, life's too short!

Answer 9

OMG thats awesome!!! lol

Not a PJ story, but one time i was "doing my business" in a public bathroom, and a guy came in with a little kid. The kid says "Daddy it stinks in here". I about died laughing!!!

Answer 10

I don't wear pyjamas to bed, and if I'm caught in my birthday suit collecting the mail, I smile and wave.
