I think that may have been the beginning-like a form of liberal guilt-but somewhere along the line they learned to like the attention and the control of having their ridiculous demands met-plain old attention getting behavior-and at the risk of being pounced on by some of my own gender for pointing it out-did you notice that most of the “sufferers” are female? That kind of nonsense makes us look more prone to neurotic behavior...

Do they have a website? If so, next time I need a dress, I’m going there-I need some cargo shorts to wear for work this summer-all mine are all trashed with paint and stuff-do they have those, too?

Rehearsal Dinner Dress. Don't really love that lacy jacket, but the dress is sensational. I got a necklace with starfish in the coral color of the dress to wear. Nude sandals, too.

They have cargo shorts, but a bit pricy for work.

Ow-you’re right-too much money to get texture mud, paint and tile mortar on-I think I’ll have to watch the 10 Dollar Mall for some cargo shorts for work-I get my jeans for work there and they are nice enough for street wear, too.

I love the rehearsal dress-I agree on the jacket, too-are you going to go without it?

No idea yet if I will ditch it or not. I’ll pack it. The dress has a nice neckline...no boobs to show for church, so the dress will get lots of use.

My son is a warehouse manager for a brewery, so he buys his jeans...carpenter and cargo shorts at Walmart. Even that he thinks is pricy for work clothes.

As I posted, it’s time to distance myself from all forms of secular entertainment.
