Adorkable Musings

It’s incredible how people can see themselves.  One thing about me is that I love color.  I color my hair, buy clothes, and even pick out colors for my condo based on this.  Pinks, purples, blues, rainbows.  I love it.  I feel more myself when I have on colorful clothing.  I can tell you it drives my mom crazy.  I am not a fan of all-white or all-black. Even though I have been known to wear it, case in point, for Christmas this year, I got a Kirby hockey jersey.  It’s pink and blue.  I love it so much!!

Recently, I told a coworker I wish I had bought the Hello Kitty salt and pepper shaker cause the pink would go wonderfully with my dining room.  The color theme is pink, white, and gray.  I love walking into my place and seeing everything is a bright color.  It’s like an instant chill pill.  I know that it sometimes drives people crazy, but it brings me comfort.  Let’s not get me started on iridescents and things that sparkle.

Whenever I go to the store, whether it’s office supplies or clothes, I look for bright colors if I can control the color.  I do find dark things that I like, occasionally.  Most of the time, if I can get it in my colors, I will get it. Recently, I took my dog to get groomed. While there, I saw that they have care bear dog toys.  So, I grabbed the purple one. When I got home, I realized how many purple things I have that are the same shade.  My computer, tablet, phone case, snuggie (giant fleece hoodie), and a Yeti tumbler.  The same lilac shade of purple. I giggle when I end up having all of these items near me.

The point is that this is one of the main things that make me who I am.  One thing I can say about myself is that I have a strong base of who I am.  I don’t try to be something that I am not.  I am a very proud, adorkable nerd. I want to let you know that you can truly be you.  Your vibe will attract your tribe.
