Less ain't always more

It seems like the weather and fashion trends have an inverse relationship; the hotter it gets, the less clothes people wear. Yes, 'tis the season for leaving nothing to the imagination. If you're in a Victoria Secret runway show, feel free to walk around damn near naked. But if you're like 99% of the population, less isn't necessarily more. I went to a program at my son's school and was...amazed (?) by the sheer amount of clothes missing. Booties and boobies and body parts hanging out all over the place. And some of them had on skirts that were wider than they were long. One woman's skirt was so short she would've turned a G-rated parent conference into a XXX peep show if she'd bent over. It was a complete mess. So for the sake of the innocence of my virgin eyes and everyone else who doesn't want to see what your clothes should be hiding, I'll say these three things:
1) just because they make it in your size doesn't mean you should wear it
2) refer to #1
3) less isn't necessarily more. Now go put some daggone clothes on!

CerebralStew's Day Off

My company was closed today in honor of Easter (or Resurrection Day if you prefer). Much like Ferris Bueller, I rounded up a buddy (well, an indentured servant) and got to the business of my day off. Instead of Ferris' fun filled trips to baseball games and fancy restaurants, I decided I'd sleep until at least 10 then make some progress on my house. I accomplished sleeping late, then it was time to get moving. In 6 hours, we folded, washed & dried, gave away, and disposed of (4) 30 gallon bags, 5 large laundry baskets, and 3 big bins of clothes. We still have 6 or 7 more to go, but not bad for an assembly line of 2 people. Maybe someone will throw us a parade when we're finished, too.
