Good old Jeans
Thursday, July 14th, 2005All week long I have to dress up at work but I relish my Fridays. Fridays are for my jeans. As long as their tasteful and not icky, I get to wear them with a semi-nice top. I long for the days when I could go to work in anything I wanted without having to worry about finding something wear that wasn’t wrinkled or some other clothing disaster. All those years I laughed at the girls who have 18 million pairs of shoes and tons of jewelry and wondered why. I now know why. They have them for work. Because you have to dress nice at work and you get tired of wearing the same damn thing every week. So here I am… The anti-girl. And I’ve had to become the typical girl. I have gasp makeup on every day now. I actually attempt to do my hair (yeah, that still needs some practice). I wear clothes that say “dry clean only”. Okay, I don’t really pay attention to the tags but I know I have to wash them with care. And, I have jewelry I make/buy to match clothes and clothes I buy to match jewelry.
I know, it’s odd. I’d be disappointed in myself if I could, but really, I’m not. It’s part of the territory. Welcome to the Office World. It ain’t for Tomboys, that’s for sure.
