Julep: life lessons

As I got dressed this morning, it occurred to me that some times it's nice to be pushing 40. I was able to apply some life experience to realize ...

(1) Pants that are uncomfortable at 7 a.m. are not getting any more comfortable as the day goes on. By 3 p.m. you will be begging for mercy. Just go ahead and take them off now, and put on something else, rather than suffer through the whole day.

(2) The very pretty shirt that was passed along to you (tags intact) by a woman who is 8 feet tall is not flattering on your pocket-sized frame. Take it off, fold it up for the Goodwill, and put on something you bought your own self.

There. Much better.
