In the last 2 weeks, I've worn three pink shirts.
To a normal person of the female persuasion, that's not odd.
To me it is. I have almost always had an aversion to the color pink. I didn't like it. I didn't want to wear it. I didn't want anything to do with it. I had physical reactions of a bad kind to it.
That seems to have changed......
As I was getting ready to take off from Madison to Philly last Friday, I realized that I did not pack a sweatshirt. This time of year, knowing I would be spending time outside and it was cold there, that was a mistake on my part. So I walked into one of those "news/gift" stores they have in every airport.
They certainly had sweatshirts. Nice hooded ones with the little pocket in the front that my cold hands love. I had a choice between Navy Blue, Pink and Yellow. And I picked the pink. (I also picked the wrong size and the the thing is HUGE on me, so it's going back to Philly, to a certain college student I know who will love it). As I was buying it, I was asking myself why, but buy it, I did. And when I got to Philly, at one of those same kinds of shops, I saw a lighter pink one that said "Philadelphia" on it. I laughed about buying it on the way home.
And then I did buy it on the way home.
I'm not displeased by this change of events. On the contrary, I am a little fascinated by it. Things change. And I personally do not see how this is a bad thing. I mean, c'mon. Pink is just light red, right? And you know how I feel about red .....This is not a new obsession by any means.... but it is opening my mind to new things a little....
I don't want to analyze it too much. I don't want to try and pick it apart. But I think it's worth noting.
I came across the picture above the other day. Maybe that'll be my next pink purchase.... I think I could fill that bra out nicely ....
