Match Day?

Did you see me today? Did you think my shoes matched my dress? Why do I worry about these things on such an absurd level? I really spent much of the day today seeing if I could find the exact color of pink in my dress that I thought matched my shoes. Why do these things happen? I had a choice this morning....a multi-colored dress....and I could have worn these gold glittered shoes(much like Dorothy's only not red) or these reallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy cute pinkish shoes with a big bow on each one. I thought about it for 35 seconds this morning and then chose the pink ones. I second guessed myself all day. Now a fashion maven I'm not......(QUIT NODDING YOUR HEAD IN AGREEMENT), but I usually do try to look decent and at times even manage NOT to wear my shirt inside out. Do you think the other 400 people I was with at school today wondered why I chose the cute pink shoes over the glittery gold ones? I probably spent about 1/2 my time looking down at my dress seeing if I could see that color. This is not normal. Refer back to my blog on Full Length Mirrors....as noted that day... I HAVE ONE. I looked in it this morning...I chose the pink shoes. I walked out the door....then began to worry. I didn't dare ask anyone if my shoes matched my dress because I was afraid of that raised eyebrow look you sometimes get. You know the one....eyebrow ever so slightly raised...lips ever so slightly pursed..then a flat out lie....."Bless your heart, you look fine." I think maybe I should have worried about Global Warming or the rising cost of gasoline or the likelihood of a meteor falling on my house. I'm pretty sure the exact match of the pinks has no significant bearing on life as we know it today. O well...next time I wear this dress......it's the gold glitter for sure. Then that day I can turn my thoughts to something more profound, more conscious raising....yes! For sure that day I will NOT worry about pink!
