My Underwear Drawer: A Fair Representation of Me
A little known fact about CG is that I came of age in a house run by a woman, my CysticMommy, who worked for a lingerie company. I was the only seventh grader to wear a hot pink bra and thus began a life of altogether too much attention to underwear. CysticLady shares this passion handed down by CysticMommy, and writes, I like underwear, to me, as I sit here typing.
I have come to understand that my current state of being can be easily assessed by looking into my underwear drawer. All a mess? Thus, I am a mess. Empty? Thus, I am empty. All neat and colorful? Ah. Thus and thus and thus.
Tonight, in an attempt to put order to the chaos around me, I decided to spend time doing one of my very favorite CG things to do: organize and categorize, prioritize and synchronize my underwear.
Thus. I have learned:
A few weeks ago, I was the ball of white in the back of the drawer.
Now, I am all the way to the right. Basic. Functioning. Solid.
Soon, I will back in the middle. Colorful. Content. Expressive.
After that, further left.
Comfortable. Beautiful. Understated.
And then, well, I'll really be back.
There are a few other messages in the image but I"ll leave that to your own discretion.
So I ask, CG Readers:
What does your underwear drawer say about YOU?
PS. Tonight's post is double-whammy. I finally decided to upload a video that I had delayed, below. Watch it if you so desire. Goodnight from Cinderella-CG. It is Midnight! POOF!

ReplyDeleteCG, I'm really starting to think we just might be the same person. I'm no underoo-queen, but the state of my closet organization is inversly correlated to the degree of stress in my life. I shall post (with pictures, what a treat!) when I return from aneurysm-fixy-land. (all went swimmingly, btw!)
If my underwear draw is a representative of me then my life must be full. I have an abundance of underwear. All shapes and colors. I love underwear. When I am feeling down, happy, sick, angry, stressed or want to celebrate I buy underwear. Lat piece about me and mu underwear...I always try to match my bra and underwear with what I am wearing. My husband will ask what is wrong if I don't match everything. With a habit like this you would think I was organized but if you looked at my underwear draw it would tell you a completely different story. Great post...as always.
ReplyDeleteI believe my underwear are too small and curly to fold or organize. It's a mess!
