Tue, Sep. 13th, 2005 09:01 pmI wore closed-toe shoes, pants, and my leather jacket to work today. I also switched from a white purse to black. Aka, I have finally thrown in the towel and admitted to myself that it's fall, sigh. I will be much happier about it later, when the air is happily crisp and, more importantly, when the leaves are turning bright red (yes, they do that even in California). But right now I'm still mourning the passing of summer, including the season of peaches and nectarines and pluots and tomatoes and peas and white corn. And I miss happily colored clothing already. Despite really adoring all the tweedy stuff that's finally coming out.
I wore my new pants today! Mostly because I had them, and they're all new and nifty. Plus, I wanted to wear them so I could wash them and see if they shrunk, to see if I had to hem them. But since they haven't been washed yet, they're still way too long, so I had to wear my highest pair of shoes. I was so tall today! I could see above all the cubicle walls!
I'm 5'4". In Taiwan, that means I tower above all the other girls and that I am size L. In America, it means people laugh when I tell them I was tall back at home.
So since my tallest pair of shoes are closed-toed and black leather, really, I had to wear my leather jacket. And then since I was all in black leather, I had to switch purses! Just so I could wear my pants. Ah, the feminine mystique demystified ;).
Lalalala I have new clothes!!
