We’re going to play tennis with Kensy and Katie after dinner coop on Thursday and we wanted to look the part. Camille found a sweet classic pleated skirt that she liked. I tried on a bunch of skirts, trying to find one that felt right. The skirts with pleats, slits or more of an a-line felt too girlish for me, but the straight skirts were awesome. There’s an inherant femininity to a skirt, but a tight straight skirt feels to me like it takes some ovaries to pull off, and ballsy feminine is sort of the gender I was feeling this morning (with a little bit of terrified dude mixed in). The straight skirt also shows off my nonexistant hips, whereas a wider skirt on men’s hips just looks like an empty sack.

So, we bought skirts. And they are pretty sexy, and totally hilarious. Camille and I are stoked for next Thursday.

The punchline happened as we were checking out. The older lady who rang us up was pretty quiet as she was taking my credit card. As she handed me the skirt, she said “What is this for?”

Camille and I stared blankly at her, not sure what she was asking.

“Are you going to a costume party?”

*blink*

“Uhh, we’re playing tennis.”
