Some days I get positively rebellious! I begin to contemplate doing things I would not normally dare to even consider. Call me "reckless", but that's how it is!
So...I don't want to upset anyone here, but I've had this wild thought running through my mind all week, and I feel I must express it, test the waters, so to speak, before taking the plunge.
Ahem. (Doing some deep breathing to settle my nerves.)
Whew.
Okay.
Well, this is it. Suppose I were, just once, to put on my argyle socks inside out! and go out that way to the greengrocers, to dinner at an upscale restaurant, to pick up my mail at the post office, to my place of work, etc.
Should I risk it? What fallout could result from taking such a bold move? Would it imperil my relations with the young woman at the confectionary, the one I've been thinking of asking to tea for the last 16 months? And what would my mother think?
These are important questions.
The fact is, I feel ready to throw caution to the winds and step out in a way that few in London dare to! I've even had wild thoughts of getting an umbrella that isn't black!!! Perhaps a green or sky blue one. I don't feel ready yet for one with a flowered motif...
