Freedom & Flannel

For my own part, I can almost hear the teeth grinding when I wear my bright pink polo shirt or the lavendar long-sleeved dress shirt. But she can't really say anything critical, because both of the girls comment how great I look every time I wear them! So instead, she snarls about the more manly plaid ones and says "That looks like something your father would have worn! So I raised an eyebrow and remarked, "Dad wouldn't have been caught DEAD in Abercrombie & Fitch!" So there!

 

No flannel as I'm on a business trip for the last week and a half. However, does it count that I wore my high heel clogs to breakfast last Sunday?

 

I keep wearing my new scarves, who cares if it's hotter than normal at the end of the day!

 

Hmmm, next paycheck. Gonna buy some "winter clothes".

Wore low top hikers to work today with cargo pants and an Adidas polo shirt that I subsequently ruined with bleach. Grrr...

Sang along to Melissa Etheridge while I was working by myself then heard a crowd of people in the hallway. LOL - well that was fun.

 

Happy National Coming Out Day! Hmm. What can I rock to work today? Definitely a confident smile to go with Friday jeans day. It's Pride weekend here so I hope to go out to lunch and see lots of folks to exchange "the look" with.

 

I'll be wearing my skinny jeans and my most flamboyant scarf today...

To all those who need to come out, for whatever reason, today is a day like any other, no pressure, don't feel as if you've failed if, for whatever reason, you just couldn't do it.

Coming out is a personal milestone and should not be done if you aren't ready. But if you are, this day is a great reminder of the importance of it!

 

I woke up this morning and thought, I want to just come out to the world today! I had no idea it was National Coming Out Day. I totally picked up on the energy. How wonderfully weird.

I'm going to rock my normal androgynous clothes and forgo a bra today.

 

Wore the pink polo today...No skinny jeans for this boy, though. There's just enough skin left over from the weight loss that I would look like a blue denim test tube with something bubbling over the top. Eeeccch.

 

Skinny jeans: the only reason I can fit into them is that I'm on the Divorce Diet :rolle: ...oh well, something good has to come of it!

 

I still don't understand why anyone WANTS to wear bifrucated clothing in hot weather....

I was singing noticeably lesbianish songs out loud at work today. Thought I was alone then walked around the corner into the lab office and everyone is staring at me. I smiled and walked on. Hee hee... Too hot for flannel today but I have my cargos on, as usual. Hell no on the skinny jeans. I'm rockin' too much flab for those.

 

Some days I wear flannel and jeans and cowboy boots, sometimes I wear dresses--but it's always the dresses that make me feel, subtly, like I'm wearing a costume instead of my real clothes.
