No need to adjust your monitors, I really am that blurry today. Just squint and pretend it’s artsy.
This outfit was an experiment. Work’s been difficult, for a variety of reasons, and silly as it may sound, the way I was dressing wasn’t helping. Wearing jeans and hoodies and flannel shirts was practical for the work I do, but it also made me miserable. I didn’t feel like me, I didn’t feel comfortable in my own skin.
So today I dressed like me: a dress, drapey layers, and the continuation of my never-ending quest to rock 90′s-esque silhouettes. And, yes, I did have to wear an ugly brown smock that smelled distinctly like feet and pencil shavings for part of the day to keep my clothes clean, but it was worth it.
I also experimented with taking sneaky photos at work (but on my break, in case my supervisors ever discover this blog). The photos ALL came out blurry, so there’s work to be done yet (again, work I’ll do on my break).
No idea what I’m doing here. None.
It’s a great spot for photos! Did the change in garb have a positive effect on the morale?
It did. I felt like myself again, and went about my day much happier and (I suspect) more productive than I have on other days.
