Fads

Uh, the clothes.  I don’t know why I don’t make my own clothes.  I really should.  Instead, you are at the mercy of the designers.  And fads…I think I know why some fads only come around every 20 or 30 years…it’s so people will have enough time to forget them from the first or second go around and they’ll have a fresh chance.  BUT the one that is killing me today is the long, gharish colored dresses that are out now, which I don’t dare buy for fear of one of my friends - and I know the one, too – yelling out, “Hey there, Mrs. Roper!”  But these kids nowadays are too young to remember her and her crazy long caftans.  Even though these dresses are sleeveless and not like a caftan except for being floor length, the colors are definitely reminiscent of some of the nutty things she would wear.  And it’s probably better that I don’t buy one anyway…it was just going to be a cover up for the boat or lounging around a pool, but it would probably be too hot anyway.
