go, bug with the hat-wearing!
I remember having an Easter outfit when I was about six; it included a red "straw" (actually plastic) hat and matching purse, a red plaid dress with a lace collar, and white gloves.
You just don't see that any more. Heck, there were at least 3 boys in hoodies today.
Oh, church hats! Of course! I even had Easter bonnets, back when I was younger, and thus shorter and smaller, than I am today, I just didn't make the connection. For some reason I kept coming up with paper sailor hats.
I was feeling very judgy about the multiple people I saw in jeans at or on their way to church this morning. Grownups! In jeans! In church! On Easter! Bah.
But I also saw some fabulous hats.
Happy Birthday, Drew!
Great pics, Tom. (If you're wondering who that new Flikr contact is, it's me.)
It's dark and rainy here with some rolling thunder. It makes me want to sleep or lounge and watch movies. Instead, I have to empty out my kitchen and do paperwork.
I admit I wore jeans to Mass -- but they were my fancy black velvet jeans, as it was pouring rain when I left the house.
Now I must go clean, argh!
Black velvet is a whole nother story. I don't even know I'd count that as jeans! I'm talking blue denim with sweatshirts and sneakers. I'm sure that Actual Clergy People would rather have people in the pews than worried about what to wear, but still! I feel the same way at the theater.
I feel the same way at the theater.
I am so with you on this. We went to the symphony the other night, and all kinds of people were in jeans and t-shirts...and some even shorts and t-shirts.
It's nice if people dress better to go to the theatre, but honestly as long as they've paid for a ticket I don't care what they wear.
I went out, to TJs. It was nice, but now I'm home, and need to decide what to do with the rest of the day. I'm thinking Sneakers, a nap, and some cleaning.
I think it's cool that people go to theatres and symphonies (I really don't--the closest I get is going to a comedy show), no matter what they're wearing.
But it is cooler if it's an event, through and through. Something grand...
I think I'd be more stickly about the house of worship thing, but like Jesse said--clergy might have different priorities.
Still with the lassitude. But my apartment's tidy and the most I have to do is decide how to cook the pork chops and asparaguse I've set aside for tonight's dinner.
I think I'll just get another glass of ginger ale and black raspberry juice, and lassitude it a little bit more.
