Within a Breath

That's how close I was to embarrassing myself at work today. I got up in typical fashion at 6:04am and proceeded to ready myself like normal. I showered, dressed, fixed my hair, makeup, ate breakfast, etc. Then I returned to the bathroom to brush my teeth. And thank goodness I did! As I was scrubbing away at the grimy plaque on my teeth, I noticed that my shirt looked a bit odd. The seam was a little thicker than I remembered, not to mention the color was just not as vibrant. Then it hit me. I had put my shirt on inside out! Definitely a B.I.H. moment for me.

In case you're wondering, B.I.H. stands for "Blonde in Hiding". My friend and I came up with it back in high school as an excuse for all our many lapses of judgement. We're brunettes, so we said we were simply blondes in hiding.

Needless to say, I'm glad I escaped the embarrassment of strolling around the office in a reversed shirt all day. But then, I could always claim it is "inside-out-day" and transport myself back to grade school. ;)
