Because it has been cold these last few weeks, when I got out of bed to have my hot morning oatmeal (oatmeal nuked in milk, then mixed with whey protein and low-calorie chocolate drink powder), I would not sit down at the computer in my thin robe, but immediately put on the American Apparel black cotton flared sweatpants and the black cashmere sweater -- the only one that survived the moth attack in LA. Of course, as every morning, I would get totally engrossed in work and Internet, so but for food breaks, I would at some point look up and go, shit, time for gym, slip on boots and a coat, go to the gym, change and work out, shower and brush and shave, and then put the sweatpants and sweater back on. Nobody needed to see me anyway so who cares what I wore.

Except I caught my reflection in the mirror and I looked totally hot and cuddly and soft in it, and it was super comfortable on my skin all day. Except for my feet. My feet get so cold, even in boots, if I don't move and have the heating low. Still, I wore this for a week or more, I forget.

Ok, you know what, if I am going to do this home working in sweat pants for real, I might as well commit. I finally have a style of my own for work. As soon as my bank account no longer gives me anxiety attacks I will get 5 more of those sweatpants in colors, and save up for discount cashmere sweaters. While doing some browser testing on eBay I already bought a pair of cashmere socks. Maybe those will keep my feet warm. It'll be my work uniform.

When I am not meeting with clients, of course.
