Project

So due to a weird combination of watching Tim Gunn's Guide To Style and Clean House, I am embarking on a project to go through my closets and begin editing them down.

I was doing laundry and realized how much crap I have that I don't wear.

I have been stuck in a rut wearing pretty much the same ten things for the last few months.

So with the weather changing, and being motivated on what I saw on those shows [man, some people are pack-rat slobs], I made a vow to wear everything I have without repeating an outfit twice, until I run out of clothes.

That way, I can see what still fits, what I still like, and what can be given to charity.

So as of today we are starting week three.

I am betting that I might be able to make it to the middle of December before I run out.

I am definitely not going to wear a tux to work though.

Speaking of the tux, what kind of cracked me up the other day was how I got to thinking if I were to pass away, and some friend or family member would have to go through my stuff, they might think I was some kind of an oddball.

'Was he a Shriner?'

'I didn't know he was in the Navy!'

'What's with the NASCAR jumpsuit?'

Ha ha.

When I bartended at Tracks, we often had theme parties, so I have amassed quite the collection of outfits from those days.

I actually do have a Fez and a Shriner's outfit.

I kept it in case I needed an emergency Halloween costume.

It may be time to part with it though.
