Speaking of OOTD

[Deleted]

Do you feel embarrassed when someone walks into the bathroom and sees you taking a picture of yourself? I don't do OOTD often, but a few times when I have, I've had someone walk in while I was taking the picture and I felt like a total looney person.

I've made my H take a couple OOTD pictures of me, and I'm pretty sure he thinks I'm nuts.

If I see a neighbor, I run away or pretend I'm fiddling with something.

HA HA HA HA!

I always pretend I'm fixing my hair.

The worst is when I walk into the bathroom with my phone ready to go and there's someone in there primping. So I pretend to primp as well and then they always take for.ev.er and I can't pretend to keep primping that long so I walk out, go to the kitchen, drink a glass of water and go back to the bathroom and pray they're gone.

I'm not gonna lie. I often and frequently have wondered about you and if you get caught/ what you do. You always seem so cool and collected that I have a hard time thinking of you as a frazzled person lol.

This is awesome, and so something I would do.

In fact, here are TWO failed attempts at getting my photo this morning. Trying to be sneaky and get a photo while other people were in the bathroom:

woman behind me washing hands:


(I probably would have used that shot anyways but my shirt was all messed up)

woman behind me getting a paper towel:


I was in a big rush cause I had a lot going on. I had to go into the bathroom a 3rd time before I finally got it to myself.

joanis: I appreciate you so much more now. You are DEDICATED to.capturing your ootd to post.

[joanis018]

Thank you. Maybe from now on I should post all of my failed attempts as well.

We could do OOTD outtakes! I think there might be some potential.

[sasky]

It's only happened once, and it was one of my good friends at work. I still pretended I was checking something on my phone. 'OMG this email is too important not to answer while people are noisily pooping 2 feet away!'

[pixy0stix]

I can't even find a full length mirror to take pics. I don't have one at home, and there are none at work. I have the sadz about this.

Not an OOTD but I have 2 photos where in the first one, a complete stranger is smiling for the camera and in the second one, a person stuck themselves in between my 2 friends.

Thankfully, I do my OOTD at home but I'm always making sure no one is scrolling through my phone. Lol.

I went to show a client a picture of my kid today on my phone, and I had to scroll through a million FOTD pictures to get to them. I was tilting the phone toward me so she couldn't see and she probably wondered what in the world I have on my phone.

One day H picked up my phone and was like, why the fuck do you have 100 pictures of yourself on your phone - that is really weird. My explanation didn't make him think I'm less weird.

[pixy0stix]

So, yeah. I just went and found my phone and deleted a bunch of pictures.

You totally should! And do a 'best of' failed OOTD pics post on your blog.

And Renata...what do you mean you're not going to be updating your blog anymore?

[natablue]

Ive started deleting my FOTD and OOTD pics from my phone right after I upload them to photobucket, just in case my DH or a friend scrolls through my phone pics and starts to think I'm a narcissistic weirdo.

[honeydew1894]

I take them from home since I work in a school. The bathrooms are NEVER empty, and the last thing I want is students seeing me take OOTD pics.

I do this too! My H knows about the pics and catches me a lot so I don't care about him, but it would be so embarrassing if a friend grabbed my phone and saw all the pics.

The only real time I was ever caught was when the IT company we use came in and needed to use my computer right as I put it on the screen. He didn't ask why I had a picture of myself posing in an outfit on the internet, but I was embarrassed!

[mrsacornblue]

I take mine at home so I don't feel too weird. However, my OOTD pictures are shared on my H's phone because we have iCloud so I usually delete them once I put them in Photobucket.

I'm bored with it... I actually started my blog to share some of my crafts and home stuff and I haven't touched my Cricut in months. I'm at the point where I hate my clothes and I'm going to be traveling A LOT for work this summer (Delaware, South Carolina, Georgia, Baltimore, Niagara Falls, Indianapolis) so bleh.

I'm not far from Indy if you'd want to do drinks. If you need any info about the city let me know.

[futurepivko]

I try to do it when it's not a designated lunch or break time, but most of the time I take mine at home.

Oh I'd love that! I'm going to be there for our National Sales meeting from July 15-19. I won't have a car though When I find out the agenda, I'll let you know!

That's cool! I don't mind at all. Just let me know the details to work something out.

[busybodyk]

I am worried about getting caught often but I find that there aren't a lot of people in the bathroom early. If I get in late its tricky. My DH thinks I'm nuts but is used to it now.

I am still waiting for a photo bomb in someone's OOTD shot. I love when I see babies, doggies and cats, but I would die laughing if a stranger just stuck his or her face behind yer head!!

My kids do this when I take pics. My friends and I send OOTD pics to each other and my kids are always lurking in the back and typically DD is making faces while DS give his big cheesy grin.

Hahahaha this makes me feel SO much better about living out of a suitcase and missing my H & dog.

busy - no idea where in GA I will be trekking to, as soon as I know, I'll give you a heads up! GA is a "state-adoption" state when it comes to purchasing programs for elementary schools and this year they're looking at math so I will be all over Georgia A LOT.

I only like last minute travel when I had to travel for work. They had direct bills set up with specific hotels in every city and only one hotel per city. Last minute scrambling for rooms meant jacuzzi rooms or suites. That mixed with a food allowance big enough for a couple of dinner drinks was really nice and all the hotels had great shopping too.

Cool! I would definitely like to meet you!

And this is the exact reason I bought a full length mirror to hang on the back of my office door! The only thing I had to deal with was walking through the office with it right after I bought it on my lunch break! The boss actually said "like we really need more mirrors in the office" and my response was-yes we do at least one full length one!-all the girls in the office we excited as many of us go out after work and now we can see what we look like from head to toe instead of head to neck!!! We are all good friends here to no problem if they want to come into my office to use my mirror!!

Ditto this if you are in the Atl

[mrspost08]

I have my husband take pictures of me for my blog almost every Sunday. He doesn't think anything of it any more. My friend caught me taking pictures of myself last Sunday. She thought I was nuts. I told her I take a picture every Sunday morning and send it to my sister. It's our Sunday thing. She still thought it was strange. whatever!
