Feeling Bold in Orchid
It’s Monday. And Mondays are usually an interuption to my regularly scheduled train of weekends. By Monday morning, enough time has passed that I can’t remember what items were still open from Friday (or lately, Saturday) – and I’ve found that I’m rapidly moving toward a 2 coffee minimum just to get in the door. So when the bright sunny light of a Monday morning comes at you, why not add some extra stimulation for your rods and cones? I do this by wearing the brightest shirts known to man. And if you could see me right now, I’d be putting air quotes around the word “man”.
I find there’s no better way to break the Monday morning ice, as it were, than to wear a shirt that leaves every co-worker wondering. Wondering if I’m playing for a new team. Wondering if I’ve accepted a new job at Express Men. Wondering if this is a new strategy to meet women (they love to share clothes).
The finance guys don’t get it, the engineers squak at it… but in the end, only the product planners get me.
Makes sense, these are very forward looking folks. And I knew I had found my people when I discovered Suzanne was wearing a scarf of the same shade. Here’s to the Orchid Twinsies, Suzanne!
and you look mahhhhvelous
i'm definitely speechless. i'd love to see you try that on the east coast
