skip hop walk

Apparently long sleeves are in for Fall. I thought I would try it now. Something about long sleeves is so ladylike and demure. And the weather is just perfect for this look: a nice breeze, not too hot, just lovely summeryness. Also, I have a real tendancy to always push my sleeves up. So this was sort of a challenge for me.

In my Miss Furnellie head: "Don't push your sleeves up Kimberellie. Don't!"

This reminds me when I was in high school and I made myself stop pushing my hair behind my ears (it was long then). Oh, months of pure torture and self-restraint! How DESPERATELY I wanted to tuck my hair behind my ears! But my fifteen year old self had come to the conclusion that her hair looked much better hanging in front of her face. I've come to a compromise with myself since then, the hair stays in front of the ears, but BESIDE the face. When I have long hair that is.

How about another confession? A sort of bizarre habit I had and broke: I used to bounce when I walked. Literally. It was bounce bounce bounce. And I mean ME the whole of me, not just, well, you weren't thinking that anyway, were you? But yes, I had a bouncy walk. It was actually sort of a skip/hop/walk. Don't worry. I don't bounce when I walk anymore; I walk like a lady now.
