I took a last-minute weekend trip to my small hometown in Minnesota last weekend.  I wore this skirt on Saturday out for drinks catching up with a couple old friends.  I wore this skirt to church on Easter Sunday.  I wore this skirt to work on Tuesday.  And then — and then! — I washed it.

I can’t remember the last time I sat in a pew next to my mother during a church service.  She passed me the little book where people sign in if they want to note their presence.  “Hm, I think I’ll mark out-of-town guest, or maybe returning visitor…” I mused.

“Or you could check the member box, you are technically a member,” she said.

“Um, actually, I was just mouthing the words during the confirmation ceremony in 9th grade, I didn’t actually say them…” I replied.

“What??” She was surprised.  “You were just mouthing the words?  All these years and I didn’t know…”
