Michele comments on the strange phenomenon of webloggers who start every day by mentioning what they’re wearing. In the spirit of playing along, here’s me. (Please remember that it’s 9:30 a.m.)
I am sporting a rumpled maroon “They Might Be Giants” concert T-shirt that I grabbed off the floor and a tiger-print fringed sarong (it’s actually Snookums’s) around my waist. My hair is thrown back in a pony-tail to keep it out of my face. To finish off the ensemble, please picture me wearing my Coke-bottle-thick glasses and a dazed expression.
Heh. They’ll probably rescind my Blog Babe of the Week nomination now. 🙂
(Hey! That current Blog Babe totally stole my idea! I submitted this picture months ago! Now I’m going to look like a copy cat!)

I’m wearing a pair of daggy blue shorts, and my work shirt. Hair is scragged back in a pony tail. I’m squinting at the screen, because I’ve misplaced my glasses. For a change. Sexy, eh! Or not.
Have to say I think the whole idea of describing what you are wearing *every* entty a little too stalker risky/ borderline slutty…but to each their own.

Yeah, I think that was Michele’s point. The idea is to make yourself sound lots more sophisticated and sexy than you really are, so people will buy you shit off your Amazon wishlist. When really, you just come off sounding like a phone sex worker. 🙂

I think it would be kinda boring to mention your daily attire. I mean, I wear the same ho-hum crap in weekly rotation shifts. It’s not like I’m a model, anyway. And while I could mayhap impress a few by dropping label names, I must admit that I buy all of it on clearance and some of it from Rugged Wearhouse. A fashion loser am I.

What I was hoping for was to get other people to admit that they look just as skanky as me when they are sitting in front of the computer. Thank you for joining me in my quest to prove that not everyone dresses in full goth gear to blog!

Well, you caught me early in the morning. Now I happen to be wearing a long black 18th century velvet dress, a crucifix, and a pair of Doc Martens. You may call me Chantrelle.
Just kidding. And yeah, I got that name off Buffy. It’s a mushroom too. 🙂

What a coincidence. I’m wearing a shirt made from mushrooms…

Quite the contrary. A “They Might Be Giants” T-shirt that and a tiger-print fringed sarong is about at cool as you can get for working at home IMHO.But any way – it’s not about what you wear, it’s about what you write. But that is still cool!
(oh I’m wearing a NIN T shirt and some black silk pajayma pants, hair’s a mes…skanked out too! I did shave this morning, but since it’s nearly 4 A.M. that’s kind of moot now)
