Although I have to say, all of them have made comments about the fact that I am skinnier than they are, so they have to know. So, they are just lazy, I guess.
Annie - there is no style. That's the problem. The teenagers think a crummy t-shirt and jeans are an outfit. You should see what some of the people wear in my office.
I don't think I want to.
yikes!
