Dressing 4 Comfort

When I get dressed in the morning, I put zero thought into it. Do people my age normally think about it? I have no idea, it seems ridiculous.

I don't wear tank tops, and I don't really like shirts with long sleeves. They make my arms itchy. Unless it's super duper soft. And I don't like sweaters.

So basically, all I wear is t-shirts.  

My mom usually just brings me home shirts from Old Navy. Sometimes from the mens section. I don't particularly care what they look like, although I prefer ones with animals on them, such as jellyfish and lobsters and toucans.

I saw these awesome shirts with sparkly exotic birds on them at WalMart this week. I went to go look at one, and as I unfolded it, it turned out to be as wide as I am tall. I still wanted it though.

I'm probably pickiest about pants. I hate any pants that aren't sweat pants, particularly jeans. They are extremely painful to wear. When I was little, my mom used to make me wear them.

We used to go to the store and shop for hours trying to find me jeans that I would actually wear. My mom would be all like "Do these hurt?" "Do these hurt?" Do these hurt?" And I would be all like "YES". But she would buy them anyway.

We didn't know about Aspergers back then and I guess she thought I was overreacting.

The waist always felt extremely tight, and would dig into my skin. My mom would make me wear jeans in cold weather saying that they were "warm" and that the crunchiness would go away if I wore them more. 

Lies.

                                   
And in cold weather, I like to wear weird socks.

Where do you find weird socks?? My son likes weird and colorful socks but I can't ever seem to find any. I look in the girl's or women's section but they are mostly pink and glittery!
