Show LUCILE GEORGELL JANUARY 29, 2002 effort, the metal and the rubber and stuff. So you didn't get any-and you didn't have elastic in your underpants. BEC: LUC: BEC: LUC: What were they, string tied or something? No, like a band or something and then a button or something. Oh, really? I didn't know that. We used to laugh because sometimes if the button broke or that, somebody would be walking along and lose their pants, or their slip would fall down or something. BEC: LUC: BEC: LUC: (laughs) Oh, how terrible. It was. If they'd go to a dance and their slip would come off. Did you actually see that happen? No, but I heard of some ofthem. They'd just step out ofthem and keep going and ignore it. BEC: That's funny because we focus on the big things so much, we don't talk about those little things, like, how do you keep your underwear up. Yet here at home you were all affected in big ways and little ways, too, just everyday life ways. Do you remember any everyday kind of things that were a nuisance? LUC: No, they had on shoes, they seemed to make soles kind of like out of rope or something, especially sandals. BEC: LUC: BEe: That sounds uncomfortable. No, they weren't bad. It was just different? 31 |
