I've long been amused at how upset women can get when they show up to a function and see someone wearing a dress they own and looking better in it.
So today, Day 2 of ALS Public Policy Converency 2016, our dear friend Chally shows up wearing his clown gear (always a big hit, even without the dreadlocks). I kept finding myself looking at his shirt, trying to figure out why it looks so familiar. It took hours before it finally hit me--I used to have THAT SAME SHIRT. Beth, his wife, confirmed that it's a woman's shirt and that he gets most of his wild gear from thrift shops. I had to share with him that I had a friend who used to call it my "the dog threw up on my homework shirt".
I wish I'd taken a picture of him.
The hard part--it looked better on him than it ever did on me.
