this morning, i got a round of applause

i had to go to a meeting
and
i didn't wear
what i'd normally wear
mostly
because i haven't done the laundry yet
but
maybe, partly
because i wanted to wear my new orange shirt

i wore a khaki shirt
which is a knit
[i like knits]
i've had it for 18 or 19 years
but i never wear it
because it is khaki and only comes mid calf
but
i keep it
because sometimes you need something khaki

so
khaki waffle knit skirt
orange shirt
[sheer orange with built in cami]
and brown sparkle tone up thongs
that
that's what got me
a round of applause
