Thursday, June 08, 2006Ladies and Gentlemen, I Rest My CaseFrom the comment box comes this gem from my darling husband: Well, I am late to comment. I do hate that shirt. It does not match the other much sexier shirts you have, Jill. You like it and I told you you should wear it. It was not too young for you; nor was it a burnt chocolate color with hints of olive. It is just not something that I like. Ken, you got away with a great comment. Quickly turned it to the girl's ballet. You have great diplomatic skills. Jamie, your husband would like this shirt on you, even if it was rust colored. Lisa, your husband Greg is one of nicest guys I have ever met. He would have been politely quiet if he saw this shirt. Jerry, I wasn't afraid of oggling (great word), even in closed quarters I would have put on a facade. Folks, I just hate the shirt. Although, she did look great in it the other night! :) There you have it, my friends. I wasn't "being a woman" after all. I was simply calling it like it was; reading his facial expression correctly. In other words -- I was right! Though, this one instance of "being right" doesn't feel so good. I wish the rest of you had been right and I had been wrong. No matter. I'll give the shirt to Good Will. I may be feisty and independent and all that, but when it comes right down to it, if Eric doesn't like something I'm wearing, there's no point in wearing it. Seriously. He's my man -- ya know? Now, if any of you would like to contribute to the Jill's New Wardrobe Fund, I will gladly send you my Paypal address... |

3of my readers are feeling chatty:
When I was younger and would get dressed up for something, sometimes my mom would say, "You're wearing that?" She would have a completely neutral tone, but I would never feel good in that outfit again.
My hubby has never said (or looked) anything like that, yet, but I'm sure I'll feel the same as you, Jillian, if and when he does.
I accept hand-me-downs;o)
You could wear it on his business trips.
