Man in Black (ish)

10:05 , ,
Today I'm wearing a black shirt, black jeans, black socks and a black t-shirt.

My underpants are dark blue.

Somehow I feel incomplete.

I once heard of a woman whose reply to the question 'why do you always wear black?' was 'I'm in mourning for my life.'

Big cheer for the blue pants!

Navy or sky?

Haha. I'm wearing a black sweatshirt, a black t-shirt, black boxers, but green shorts. I too feel incomplete.

Let me guess - you forgot to put on your shoes?

But what colour is your heart, Kim? What colour is your soul?

(If you said "Black, both are jettest of black," that would be dead sexy.)

Quinn - they make you buy your socks if you forget them? There are times when I realise I will always remain self employed.

Eryl - better than a blue cheer for the big pants

Sayre - navy

FLG - great minds think alike...

Dr McCrumble - that would explain why I get holes in my socks so easily

Sam - Jettest of Black? I'm afraid I'm no Dr Maroon, Sam.

I asked Maggie what colour my heart and soul were and she said many different colours, depending on my mood. I think she just didn't want to commit.

Well, I suppose black underwear really would be over the top!

How do you coordinate your eyepatch?

Well that's just fabulous. Just don't go jogging tonight unless you have a big ass spotlight at the top of your head. Oh wait Kim posted this. Let me explain. Jogging is the place somewhere between walking and running, usually done as an exercise:)

Just having fun at your expense.

What you need, Kim, is a white cat. Then all that black wouldn't look cool, it would just look scruffy. And you would also have an asthma attack, so scrap that idea.

I dress all in black too, most of the time, as black, grey and green happen to be my favorite colors. Then my cat comes along and ruins the look.

You just reminded me of art school. I was always the odd one who wore colors -- in a sea of black-clad students, I'd be the one with a bright red top and blue jeans. Always the rebel. ;)

Blue??? Next time tell us that you were wearing a red man thong - that woud be a better visual.

An even BETTER visual is you in aforesaid man thong plaing tug of war at field day.

Kanani - oddly enough, I've never considered coordinating underwear with an eyepatch. Perhaps this is where I've been going wrong all my life...

BStrong - In order to be seen at night, I once bought myself a white shirt, white trousers, white socks, white shoes, white jacket and a white dog to go with me.

I got run over by a snow plough

Ba-dum tish

The old ones are the best...

Mary - well, when I say black, grey is probaby more accurate as most of my clothes are pretty faded now

Julie - much artier!

ADW - visions of a unfit middle aged man with a belly hanging over a red thong is enough to put most people off their breakfast I would think.

With your earlier posting about the majority of women that read your blog, I see that you have begun pandering to their wants and needs.

Blue undies indeed.

Happy Bank Holiday, it's back to work Tuesday here in the USA.

The Man in Maroon doesn't sound right though somehow. He needs to work on that. It gets low sexy-marks.

Not a good combo, that one.

It was your Wizard of Oz yellow sneakers. Had to be.

Oh no! Blue pants? - I'm sorry you can only wear blue pants if you are wearing blue jeans. Black jeans call for black pants - or white ones - you know if you're going for that monochrome type look.

No - I'm not the fashion police - just slightly obsessional about the colour of my underwear.

Brave Astronaut - I wouldn't have thought that the colour of my undies would have been of particular interest to most women, although ADW seems to take it to a whole new level :)

Sam - but if you took the man out of maroon, you'd just be left with roo...

Sassy Sundry - I've had worse. In fact it's usually worse.

Charie - you know, yellow sneakers never worked as well as ruby slippers.

EG - Did you ever read Calvin & Hobbes? The quote that leaps to mind just now is "What's the point of wearing your favorite rocketship underpants if nobody ever asks to see 'em?"

Savannah - you can't tell me there isn't a blog story in that
