Actually, wasn't there a thing about Obama cutting down on decision-making by only wearing grey or navy suits when he became president?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
I am disturbed by the coworker who sounds like he is brushing his teeth while sitting in the toilet stall.

As you should be.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I wear the same things every day, too. Decision fatigue comes with anxiety. I have a small "set" of clothes - pair of jeans, couple t-shirts, one nicer shirt, a skirt - that I wear all the time. It keeps me from standing in front of my closet for an hour sweating over what I'm going to wear. Working from home makes it even easier - most days I'm in pajamas or sweatpants all day because no one sees me.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That is legit disturbing. Ew.
You are a genius, Sophia! I wonder if I could work out something similar? I also like the next-thing-in-line approach, but that would require hanging up or otherwise organizing my clothes somehow. Which I hope will happen someday, but that day is not today.
Yeah, I think it was the Obama thing that set me thinking about it. Also Daddy Warbucks, perhaps in the novelization of the movie version of Annie that had Carol Burnett in it. That was a long time ago, but I think it was in there. ETA Good lord, that was directed by John Huston? Huh.

Right there with you.

Not having to make a decision about lunch is super great. I only need to decide When Lunch? and that's driven by my work calendar.
Decision fatigue comes with anxiety.
Ugh, yes. I follow UfYH and pick out what I'm wearing the night before, and I've done it so often that it's habit and only requires a "what's up with the weather?" check.

Moi aussi. Although I've spent weeks in sarongs each summer. Our house doesn't have central air (well, WORKING central AC) so it's sarongs unless I'm cleaning and packing. I feel I clean better in gym shorts.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I have the same dinner most nights. Ham and swiss on a baguette with a sliced pear or apple and often some edamame on the side. J is doing Atkins, so he has a big slab of some kind of meat, which is not my thing.
