Day 4

So... about that whole being "required to wear professional attire" thing...

A) The original outfit I picked out for myself today made me feel like a Jockey (It involved boots and white pants).  Realizing that the "small person" complex from yesterday likely slipped into my subconscious and was quickly becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy, I figured it would be a good idea for me to change.  This ensemble is the result of a typical battle I have in the morning where I get sick of trying on clothes and decide to just be comfortable.

And 2) As part of my job, I spend most of my time in elementary schools where "professional" really just means no jeans.   Assessing preschoolers is another aspect.  Go ahead, try and crawl on the floor with a preschooler in a skirt, or even dress pants, and a shirt with a collar.  It's not fun for anyone.  Also, and this is important... I live in Colorado.  Professional really just means you leave your North Face fleece and running shoes at home.
