Cleaning out my closet

What happens when a girl realizes that she's going to turn 28 in a month or so? Some girls might feel a tick-tock of the biological clock, and some girls might feel that it's time to get really aggressive about a career. Other girls might wonder why they're two years away from turning 30, and still unmarried. Even more girls might stop calling themselves girls, but I digress.

Me? I cleaned out my closet. I don't feel like I'm as old as I am, but I am starting to realize that it would be a good idea to at least dress my age. Getting older is a wonderful thing. I'm making more money, I'm wiser, I'm slowly but surely developing cheekbones. I'd hate to ruin all that wonderful development by dressing 10 years younger than I should.

It's not like there's going to be a huge change in my style. I'm in my twenties, not my forties. I've just come to a point where I'm tired of having clothes that last a couple of washes or shrink up an inch too far. So I've done away with a lot of it. I also let go of a lot of clothes that I've owned for years. Besides being out of style (though some of them were pretty timeless), there's the reality that I am not going to be the size that I was when I was 21. It ain't gonna happen. I remember what modest curves were like and I'm not going back.

Anyway, if anyone is a size or two smaller than I am, and in need of some clothes, I have 6 bags of clothes in pretty great condition I'm going to haul off to Goodwill.
