Four Seasons of Clothing

Clothes. Up until two years ago I honestly gave no thought to clothes. I bought something I liked, I wore something that fit, and I left it at that. I’ve learned a lot about clothes lately. I’ve learned about a lot of things lately. Did you know that there are spring clothes and winter clothes? I am assuming there are also summer clothes and fall clothes. The first time I caught wind of this was when I roomed with my near-perfect cousin Melanie. She had a box for each season. What? I had one box, for one reason, clothes.

Well, I must have forgotten all about the four seasons of clothing that summer because I was caught up in my own little world. But today at work, I was reminded again about it. Two employees were talking about how they pulled out their spring clothing and put away the winter clothing. I inquired. “What do you mean? You put away your coats?” Of course not. Of course what they meant was they put away the dark clothes and pulled out the lighter clothes. Put away the long sleeves and pulled out the short sleeves. Can I tell you something, if I put away my darker clothes I would have 8 shirts. If I put away my lighter clothes, I would probably have 8 shirts. So what is a girl suppose to do in this kind of situation. To be honest, I wish I was still ignorant to the whole 4 Season clothing rule—that way I wouldn’t be looking at everyone’s spring clothing while I wear my favorite black shirt.

Well other than the fact that I will never have four seasons of clothing, we are doing great! Landon and I survived winter semester. It was fun (*cough cough*), but I’m never going back—that’s all I have to say about that. Landon takes the MCAT in 21 days. BUT don’t tell him that, because it will just make him nervous. We apply to Medical School June 1st. CRAZY!!! In a year we will be heading off to some faraway place. Far away=somewhere outside of Utah. Don’t get me wrong, I love it here and we will probably end up back here, but can a women get a break from Utah… just for a little bit… please! My whole world changed August 28th 2009 and let me tell you….it just keeps getting better.

Have a great weekend.

Oh and PS if you don't follow the Four Season rule, let me know, lets form a club!

I don't follow the 4 season rule! I have thought about it sometimes, but I would miss my "summer clothes" or "winter clothes" too much in the other season. It's like when I was little and I would feel bad if I couldn't play with all of my stuffed animals, I feel bad if I put any of my clothes away :)
