and another...

Here is the second of three salvaged shirts, still wearing the battle scars of it's time in the trenches...okay, it was actually time spent in monogrammed luggage, but i'm sure it was traumatic. The best way to describe this guy is kind of a mellow version of split-pea soup with a tight plaid white stripe running through it. Nothing about this shirt really stood out to me, which is why it ended up in a suitcase i'm sure. It's just a nice, collared shirt that looks like it would be at home in a Dockers commercial. Maybe i got it because i subconsciously desire to live the dockers lifestyle, or at least the actors that portray said lifestyles. Ah, the time we would have with comfy khaki pants below & the shirt above sitting on the corner of a pool table in some vacation home located in the Hamptons...did i get that picture right? I feel as if the shirt is somewhat disappointed in me that he never got that chance...that he feels he was the bastard plaid child of mine. Oh, sweet child o' mine you may have the green complexion that the workers in China gave you but I know you've got the eyes of the bluest skies as if they thought of rain, i hate to look into those eyes & see an ounce of pain....Maybe it is best that i send this one on his merry way to a new short & stocky owner who will have a chance at making it to the Hamptons...i don't know anyone that lives there anymore. Some dreams unrealized, I sob into the night.

Lost Treasure...

Huzzah!!

While going through a garment bag suitcase I haven't opened in almost a year I came across an amazing and beautiful discovery....three pristine, gorgeous, lost but not totally forgotten plaid shirts!! I was so overcome with emotion my knees were weak and tears started welling up in my new surgically enhanced eyes. Oh, what a beautiful discovery! Ironically, the treasures were discovered while I was going through the rest of my stash in order to say goodbye to a number of my old, plaid friends. Casualties, you ask? Some of my favorites...but alas, we shared our time together & now we all have the opportunity to seek solace in a new man/shirt relationship. My favorite camping shirt...gone. as are my bargain $6 timberland as well as a number of gifts from my mother & sister. Even one of my favorite summer blue/green plaiddies is going out the door.

Back to my new/old friends...two of the three do show their age a bit and will be shipped out after this week's wearing. The third??? Oh it will carry on their legacy & tell the tale in my closet of its life, much like the velveteen rabbit of children's book fame.

The first of three is pictured here. It is a nice blue/purple plaid that has great color & some personality. Unfortunately it is a little narrow in the shoulders, causing me to stop buttoning three from the top in order to give me enough room to house my massive shoulders and heaving pectorals. Ah, what a scene as i huffed up the hill after work today, white shirt blazing through the chest opening of the plaid creating what I can only call mayhem amongst lookers on as I made my way home. Picture Clark Kent/Superman wearing a newly torn apart shirt & tie as the brilliant blue, yellow & red of his super-garments threaten to take over the scene and save the day. (Sorry for the dramatics, but it's been a while since I've had the pleasure of writing). Anyway, after the photo shoot the white undershirt arose victorious as the purple pectoral eater is now lying on a heap of his fallen brethren. I can only hope for such emotion as the week concludes with my other old, newly resurrected friends.
