Suite Suit


When did all my suits become double breasted? Have I not been wearing suits all the time for the past 8 years? When was the last time I wore a suit? When was the last time you saw someone sporting one? Am I not a fashion maven I purport my self to be?

Going through my closet this evening produces my go-to suit (which I look fabulous in...). But also an alarmingly high number of double-breasted brethren. Each one like a mini-history lesson: There is Mr. Grey Pinstripe, I was going to get a job doing macro economic assements (aka: guessing). Turns out not a big demand.

There is Mr. Blue Pinstripe, he's the one I weathered through the suspenders fad. I can only shake my head and ask what were we thinking?... I recall the happy occasions, weddings, bar-mitzvahs and GLA meetings (Good Looking Anonymous...).

There is the, "hey, Mel, what do you think of this suit?" from Worcester Outlets. Wore through in like 3 wearings. Sad, very sad, cause it looked so good on... Ok, maybe it is not so much me looking good as it is feeling good.

Then again, it is said it st is not how you feel, but how you look. And I look marvelous...

Ian goes Punk

It, of course is my fault. You could say that about most anything. But this, this is pure genius. Yesterday, he and I were headed to get haircuts. He says, "what kind of haircut are you getting Daddy?". I give my stock answer, "mohawk". He giggles and says, "me too, we'll be twins." He is smiling ear to ear. Next comes the part where I carefully extract myself from getting said mohawk. He says, "i don't care I am getting a mohawk." I saw ok thinking Mel will never allow. She says ok.

Five minute update

Sorry, 5 is all you get today...ok at least for now. Here are the top stories from the past week: Thanksgiving. What happens when you don't see family and don't eat Turkey? Not so bad, sorry family. We had a blast watching the parade in NYC, it was a beautiful warm day. The kids and mostly Mel enjoyed the floats and balloons. We'll be back next year. You can see a slide show of the images mel took, far too many up to the right -----> Best quote at a concert, Best thing to happen to my brother in front of me, "Sir, would you buy me a beer?" -underage girl at State Radio Concert. Probably the last 18 and older show we go to. Save the security team, we were the oldest folks there... And FYI, Rob didn't buy her one, what a good guy. Then we talked about if we'll still come to these concerts if Reagan happens to go to the same one... We decided she isn't leaving the house watching some young girl crowd surf... Prickly Pear is out of the water....
