I just noticed that the poor lighting in my bedroom allowed me to wind up wearing one maroon sock and one black one. I’m not going to bother with it.
No – the aging thing is when you have to put on your reading glasses to find the vinyl copy of “Dark Side of the Moon.”
Why Ringo, you wore socks. What’s the occasion?
I go with the excuse that it’s distraction. I’m so thinking about the day ahead that I don’t notice that my top is inside out. Or that I forgot to brush my hair. Or that I’m still wearing my purple pajama bottoms. :o
It is a mere coincidence that the frequency of such occurences increase as the years pass by. Yep, that’s it.
Yeesh, I need a keeper.
Me too. Unfortunately, for me it is more a morning thing. See, I have “work clothes.” They are sort of professional, but things I can bear to wear, so lets call them a compromise. I ONLY wear them to work, since they are a tad bit more formal than you will ever find me in anytime else.
Well, I have to be at work at 7AM. I am okay in the AM, but it isn’t my favorite time of day if you know what I mean. Plus, my bathroom (where I dress) doesn’t have the BEST lighting in the world.
I have “work clothes” that require navy shoes, some that reqiure purple shoes and some that require black shoes.
One day, about two hours INTO the day, my office assistant said “Um, Cheri? Are you aware that your shirt is on inside out and you have on your purple shoes?” (I should have had on the navy blue ones.) This is not QUITE as bad as it sounds, the shirt had a beautiful handpainted pattern on thin knit cloth…so the pattern sort of “bled through” and the only way you could REALLY tell it was on inside-out was if you noticed the tag on the back of the neck.
And it had nothing to do with age, either…I was only 32 at the time. I’m just lame at 6:30AM, that’s all.
The shoes thing I refuse to discuss. 
Especially since the shoes thing has happened a whole lot more recently than the incident I am telling you about.
So, well, the SHOES thing might have to do with age…
[sub]it is bound to get worse with time, however…and THAT is a daunting thought…[/sub]
Scotti, sounds like you were either hung over, or you were ravaged before you went to work

a little from column “a” and “b”?-
Maybe!
Love ya anyhow
No. I am 16 and I have been known to do this. Rejoice, for you are not old.
Just sloppy.
Yep, Ringo, you’re old. 
Thanks, dear.
I think the aging question occurred to me not so much because I mismatched the socks, but more so because once I discovered it, I decided it wasn’t worth the effort to change one.
[sub]And I’ve got another pair just like 'em![/sub]
