Colour Me In Gray

This morning, as I was getting dressed, I noticed something: All of my clothing has now turned gray, black, brown, or dark green. On the most part. Yes, I do have nice colourful things, but those are not what I where on a regular basis.

I remember in high school, and even just last year, the clothing I wore was so much brighter. Pinks, blues, oranges... but the really bright kinds. I still have a few breight shirts, but they're usually hidden underneath my gray hoodie.

Yesterday I went to American Apparel to try an fix this problem. I thought that maybe my gray hoodie, although soooo comfortable, was dragging me down. So I went to the store to try to, well, not replaced it so much as add somthing else to my closet. I tried on the two brightest colours: Kelly Green and Bright Red. I looked in the mirror, and I looked fine. It was nice... but I didn't feel as comfortable as I knew that I used to in the past. I was going to force myself to buy one, because I knew that then I would wear it... but my indecisiveness halted any progression towards the cause.

Although I AM wearing a bright yellow shirt covered in bees right now. So I guess I'm not a completely lost cause. Ironically, I used to be terrified of bees and have just recently gotten to the point of accepting their co-existence with my life. The fear now isn't so bad; I'm a little anxious if they are around me, but I don't freak out like I used to when I was a kid. But see.... why would I buy a shirt with all bees on it? And that are realistic? Won't that fact, and also the yellow colour ATTRACT bees? And the answer is yes... it has. Twice so far. I'm stupid, but I love the shirt.

Anyways, this whole gray things started when I just discovered I liked the way I look in "asphalt" gray, and it's just kind of stuck. Also, clothing of earthy colour tend to maintain my interest for much longer than things that are bright.

Hmmm.... red or green?. I'm afraid that I'm going to look as if Christmas puked all over me if I purchase either.
