I just realized that I wear jeans to work everyday now. (In the summertime I wore shorts to work) And I have been remiss - a lot of the jeans I have been wearing are too lose, shapeless, and frankly, old. Most are frayed at the bottom, and it really is such a messy look. So I vow to change. I still have some that are unworn, and why the hell I am I saving them for? I am going to start wearing them, and I am going to throw away these ones I have been wearing. Yes, they are soft and comfortable, but they are also kind of...dinghy. And I have always been careful with my wardrobe before, and I am getting to the point where I am getting careless. It's another one of those things that I am getting too comfortable with, and it really isn't me. I need to stop wearing jeans everyday, and maybe one day a week I will "dress up" a little bit. It would be very overwrought to wear my shirts and ties (and I still have those, too) but I could very well go a little dressier. So tonight, I vow to throw away these four or five jeans I have been using past couple of months, and take out the newer, un-frayed ones from my closet and give them a "coming out" party. Oh, and it all coincides with National Coming Out Day, which is today.
The head thinks, the hands labor,
but it's the heart that laughs.
