I started pulling out a tweed dress, packed away since last spring, and realized it was absurdly Mad Men. I folded up a tie-collar shirt, and realized it, too, was insanely Mad Men. After mentioning my activities on Twitter, a few people asked for photographic evidence. Who am I to deny anyone? Particularly when it means even MORE procrastination from the drudgery of the task at hand?
J and I, obviously, had our standard conversation where I explained to him that I need a photo shoot for something really, really stupid, and he was all, "right, but how is this helping you with the whole cleaning out your closet thing, which you started to do two hours ago? With much enthusiasm, might I add?" Thankfully, I had the old "well, YOU DREW A GIANT J ON YOUR MATTRESS FOR CRISSAKES, we all DO THINGS OTHERS DON'T UNDERSTAND, J" ace in the hole to get him to acquiesce. Strategy! I am basically Sun Tzu, is what I'm saying.
And so, I bring you...The Ladies of Mad Men Pop Quiz! I have been known to do this before,. and I find the pop quiz aspect really brings something to the table, and by something, I mean "nothing, really, I just like the idea of quizzes about stupid things."
Go on, guess who I am in the following pictures:

Blankenship, Peggy, whorish secretary and Joan!
What do I win?
I love the Joan. That is perfect. I was hoping for at least on Don Draper, though.
1. Mrs. Blankenship
2. Peggy Olsen
3. Don's Secretary (can't remember her name...kind of hate her teeth). Or is it Faye? I don't think Don is her boss, though, is he? Am confused.
4. Sweet Joan.
In picture #1 you're an astronaut!
I'm displeased there's no Betty on this exam.
1. Ida Blankenship
2. Peggy Olson
3. Megan, the wannabe whore secretary
4. Joan Holloway
Um, I love that you did this. Just FYI. My wardrobe would simply make costumes for things like "80's dance instructor" or "hippie librarian"
This is just awesome.
Just be happy you have a wardrobe that makes you think MadMen and not Jersey Shore.
And, I'm with Amanda Brown---I can't even look at Don's Secretary's teeth, they distract me so.
Nice touch on the croaking astronaut.
Ida, Peggy, Megan, Joan.
How am I the only one who doesn't notice Megan's teeth?
TUBE SOCKS. God, I love you.
Amy - Hippie librarian, you're cracking me up.
And Metalina - the tube socks, oh the tube socks, I hear ya, sister. (Pen around the neck, nice touch.)
Wonderful! And, timely as we've just finished watching last night's episode.
She does a great Antoine Dodson too folks.
Just so I can prove I know these - blankenship, annoying secretary who doesn't really have any interest in advertising (LIAR!) peggy and red.
this is hilarious and I love you for it.
This was amazing. And I can't believe you have all of that in your closet! I own nothing that resembles anything a Mad Men woman would wear.
I love winter dress season though! The Joan dress is my favorite although I never keep my pen there, I'm afraid I might leave it uncapped and draw all over myself.
I must see the Antoine Dodson!!!!
I can't even. This is too awesome to ever find a comment to convey its awesomeness. Could I possibly love you more??
1. OH JEEZ, what's her name, Don's secretary who biffed it? She played Ralph Macchio's mom in Karate Kid. Oh you know..... blurgg.
2. Dear Peggy Olsen and her bad hair.
3. Horsey receptionist girl (I'm doing great with the names, amiright?)
4. Joan.
Oh, hilarious! Love them all (agree with Avitable's answers)- was hoping for Midge (so glad to see her again this week.) So you should do this like more often.
