Thought

Earrings are like the punctuation for your* outfit. It's not that people can't understand what you're saying without them, but they're the perfect finishing touch -- a convention, a printer's mark, to aid comprehension.

In that case, I went to McDonald's today with a socially incomplete fashion statement.


*Gentlemen, you are not being addressed. So no snarky comments, please.

Agreed. But just as lack of punctuation can be used to communicate a particular sense, lack of earrings can also be a particular fashion statement.

And shoes, I think, are exclamation points.

And I love being able to read your blog! Makes me feel like I should take mine up again...
