Songs I Have Sung To My Clothing.
Today I bought a new blouse. As I was gleefully acquainting her with her new home in my closet, I realized that I was singing. I often sing to my clothes. The lyric of the day on this occasion was, ” Oh, you belong to me. You are mine and I love yoooouu. So much. So much.” The other songs I might sing are very similar. There is always an “I love you” in there, sometimes a “Oh, you are so very beautiful,” or maybe a “Welcome home, little one.” 
Anyway, now that I have a sweet new addition to the family, someone’s gotta go. For the next few days I’ll be posting blouses, and I’ll need help choosing one to eliminate. Maybe even all of them.
Item: Blouse Color: Olive Designer: Theory Where purchased: Marshall’s Years owned: 3
Theory makes wonderful teeshirts. They feel luxurious, and they drape in the most flattering way. I was with my sister when I bought this. She really liked it, but I couldn’t give it up.
I know I have worn this on more than one occasion. Here is a wonderful time I played Rock Band in it.
The time I remember best was last fall, probably September. We drove out to New Hampshire to see our friends the Perrys. It was one of those days that seem warm and lovely, but in fact Autumn had come early. I thought I was making a sensible fashion choice by wearing this top. Yes, the sleeves are completely open. It was bare-er than I remembered. The Perrys were having a football party, and I felt totally naked next to everyone in their boxy Spartan sweatshirts. Plus I was freezing. Definitely not a sensible decision.
I hate it when I end up embarrassing myself by making a nonfunctional fashion choice. Like wearing a white wide leg trouser when it’s raining outside. Or wearing something that I just assumed I could sit or dance in comfortably, and then discovering that’s not actually the case. But the real reason this blouse’s life is on the line is because my deodorant bleached it ever so slightly. I’m not even sure that someone would notice it from far away. Up close, yes. And I know it’ s there.
*This one is in a pile to go to Michigan- My sister claimed it!

I have seen you in this..always thought lovely, but now I know too…and I’ll see the slight discoloration and think, why is she wearing that in front of me? Does she not care enough not to put on something that isn’t ruined? Does she think we are going to go play paintball and doesn’t care what she is wearing? Do I always spill my drinks on her??
But then I will look at what I’m wearing and realize that she is once again, lovely and a HUGE step ahead of the crap I’ve covered up my birthday suit with.
But I say go. Just cause I’m a little jealous of it now.
Maybe we should go play paintball anyway!
This should go. Directly to me. Please and thank you. I’ll forget all about the deoderant thingy.
