The Dog & Pony Show

Do you remember the expression, "putting on the dog?"

The mother-in-law does this quite well. She's southern and the compulsion to be well presented is deeply ingrained. However, this is for public consumption only. Reality is quite different.

Everyone should be comfortable in their own home but I do get tired of living with people who don't get dressed. That is, until they have to meet with someone outside of the household and then they dress to the nines.

Maybe we all do that. I don't know.
