Kilted in the hospital?
OK, so I have been quiet for a while due to a forced hospital stay. Nothing age or kilt related, just a severe leg infection due to some yard work. But that is beside the point, as I was sitting in the hospital for a week, I began to ponder the wearing of a kilt while hospitalized. When I went to the emergency room at the beginning of the journey, I was wearing the shorts I had put on to sit by the pool. My wife brought some more so I could change very 48 hours or so. Now, I am a fulltime kilt wearer most of the time, but I think that I have decided that being a patient in a hospital is a time where other garments are a better option. I would have hated to be trying to get lay down in bed after getting up and fixing my pleats, especially being reduced to one good leg. The shorts were much easier. I also think that sleeping in a kilt would be a little messy. I usually don't wear anything to bed, so I think that the kilt would quickly bunch up and make interrupt my sleep.
Anyway, I have visited many people in the hospital while kilted, but wondered about others thoughts about being a patient in the hospital and wearing a kilt.

Yeah, KCW, I hope you're ok! And as far as the kilt WHILE hospitalized. Well, I can't imagin anyone not seeing the impracticality of that. Shorts are the obvious answer.

I hope you are doing ok, there are times when kilts arent the answer, being in hospital has got to be one of those times.

Hope all is well now.
I wore flannel boxers (with snap closures i the front) while hospitalized for a long time. They are quite practical in that situation, and besides, who'd want to get all the extraneious creases in the kilt?
BTW, Dread, you new avatar is an amazing likeness. I really like your going back to the original hair do and letting your horns show. More honest or something.

Hope you're getting better man! And yes, sleeping in a kilt gets messy. I've been exhausted (or wasted) and done it. I woke up wondering how my UK got pockets on the front apron. "Oh, I'm backwards... Or, well... Somehow my kilt is...?" It can really mess up your pleats!
