The "Snuggie" Debate.

So.......here's the thing: planes are FREEZING....and on a perfectly sunny afternoon, I can be too. For this reason, Phil got me a "Snuggie - The Blanket with Sleeves!" at the start of the summer.

My snuggie is BRIGHT PINK and AWESOME. (In fact, it should be added to the "awesome things" website that I introduced to you yesterday). I have been able to enjoy its warmth during some of our chilly nights in Canada, but I have yet to use it in the too-cool-for-comfort environment of a plane! With our upcoming flight to Kuwait in mind, I am curious as to what kind of a reaction "wearing a bright pink snuggie" may evoke. Will people think my snuggie is silly? Will I be mocked and ridiculed in the same way I would be in a Red Wings jersey? Will I be admired for my brilliance and seeked out by envious on-lookers? Will I be questioned about where one can purchase a snuggie? And then there are the questions that I think about the most: what will our new teaching colleagues (who may be on our flight to Kuwait!) think? Will it make it more difficult for Phil to make friends.....you know, having a wife that wears a snuggie in public? Will it make it more difficult for ME to make friends....being the person who actually WEARS a snuggie in public? I simply do not know.

Haha - so you tell me: is wearing a snuggie on a first impression a DO or a DON'T? Please do consider the duration of the flight and my sensitivity to the cold in your response.
