Could this be considered my blue phase…? LOL
I am calm and mostly centered in general, although I feel little things dropping away. Like clean dishes and laundry getting put up properly. Work is exhausting. I am about to go in for day eighteen in a row; likely two and a half more weeks before that stops. That said, I seem to be the star attraction this season. Management that barely spoke to me for the last two years now seek me out to comment on my shifts production. (To note: my shift is essentially four people running my line.)
The pajamas are a quarter sale find from this past Sunday. They are women’s pajamas, but what does that mean exactly…? The sleeves are short, so they look like three quarter sleeves on me, no big whoop; the buttons are backward, which is always a bit odd for me, but hey. They are those neat knot and loop fasteners anyway, which helped sell the pieces in the first place. Also, the bottoms have very little shape; seems to me that is standard for many women’s clothing…
Still, it was hard for me to pass up the color, pattern and feel of the fabric. I have a trend to avoid bright colors. Both halves of <furrcrazed> chastise me for that here and there. The coiffed one of the pair insists I should spend more time in blue. If they would mass-produce this hue, I would gladly agree, I think.
I feel a bit like an ancient tapestry, you know, where all the colors fade away except for the blue…? Hot. This shade is rich enough and deep enough to not set off my bright color thing…
It isn’t about not likely them. I like them plenty. I love working with intense colors. It’s just that… really, they distract me. I can’t focus with that much color around me all day long; silly as that sounds. Plus, I am a pasty Irishman, I think putting me in some bright colors is just… well, mean. I like my colors; I want them to show through…
*smooch*
