Bunnysuits

A few weeks ago I was at work and had to go out to the Intel manufacturing floor; which in the past wasn't a big deal-- you don the smock, ground straps, and some safety glasses and, once you passed the ESD grounding test, you were out on the floor.That has since changed...
With Intel products getting smaller and more susceptible to foreign materials they have changed it to wear "bunnysuits."  We're not talking the cool looking ones from the Intel ads they used to have and they take quite a bit of time to don (and doff).
This is where my story comes in.  I was on the phone with Rosie that afternoon and trying to meet up with another engineer to get him to run some stuff for an experiment I needed to complete some data collection on.  I was already behind and told Rosie, "I've got to drop now so I can put my bunnysuit on."
There was a short pause followed by hilarious laughter.  Rosie I'm sure was imagining that her husband had some Ralphie look-alike bunny suit  that he was getting ready to put on and was wondering what on earth her husband was doing with a pink floppy-ear, fuzzy-tail suit after Easter was over.  What dimented activity had he signed up for that would require such a suit and who was it that had talked him into wearing the suit because she, I'm sure, wanted to know what tactics of persuasion he/she employed so she could sign up for the elite training it must have taken to get him to volunteer for such activities.
All said, I'm sure I don't want to know what her imagination had conjured up and I certainly wouldn't have agreed to such nonsense nonetheless.  I know the impromptu stories she tells sparked by her vivid imagination.
I quickly realized the reason for the laughter nearly immediately after the words bunnysuit came out of my mouth, knowing what must enter her head without the experience of life at Intel and began trying to explain what an Intel bunnysuit was.  This didn't seem to cause the images of Ears and tales to disappear becuase I'm pretty sure she was still half laughing when we said goodbye.
For future clarification, for those who may hear me talk of such things, this is what I intended when I say, "Bunnysuit."

My bunnysuit (Man, that's a big schnozz)

The more I look at it, the more I realize, when other Intelites adorned in similar fashion aren't around, that maybe Ralphie didn't look so ridiculous.  I was beginning to convince myself that these things were almost stylish when I see everyone else dressed in these things.  I'm fairly certain people will still be laughing as much as if I just allowed them to continue thinking ears and fuzzy tail.
