my suits miss me

Over the course of my career I’ve worked in many different types of offices and adjusted to many different dress codes. Sophisticated in Chicago. Denim in Utah. Flip flops in Florida. I even did almost all-black for my first job at the National Symphony Orchestra (the better to blend in with the musicians if I needed to dash onstage at intermission).

But this Christmas is the first time I’ve ever assessed my wardrobe and said “What I really need is more sweat suits.”

Thanks, Mom, for understanding about the returns.
