Beth: So many clothes, so little time
Does it make me a total nerd if, when a sixth-grader compliments my pants, it totally makes my day? Because that happened today (and they weren't even any sort of unique pants!) and the girl was so sweet about it.
But oh, it made me feel old for a split second, too. Because as she stood there in her comfy jeans and hooded sweatshirt, complimenting my dress pants and work attire, I was thinking that it must be nice to wear whatever you felt like wearing, any day of the week.

yes, but actually wearing whatever you want every day isn't as great as I once thought it would be. It's nice to have the option, but I wish I had the option to dress nice too. I'm always tempted to buy semi-dressy clothes, but then i remember that I'll never get to wear them :( I think getting to dress up for once would make me feel like I actually had a nice, professional job and that I've moved passed my college days. Remind me of this comment if I ever do have to grow up every day and I complain about it
