i almost never buy new clothes. instead i get previously-enjoyed clothes from thrift stores. so it felt counter intuitive to buy a sweater at target the other day (even though it was 50% off). it's a nice sweater for several reasons, but my favourite thing about it is how long it is. almost none of my sweaters are long enough to be comfortable, and i've kind of resigned myself to the fact that it's hard to find long shirt. but this sweater is an ideal length (goes down past my pockets), and it doesn't feel like a big production with lots of layers to wear. this might completely revolutionize my closet. no more and i tolerating waist-length 'tops'.
brendan finds it strange, even annoying, that women call then 'tops'. i tell him "they're called 'tops' because they're worn on our top", but this rationale does not convince him.

Maybe because there are so many kinds of shirts for women and so many kinds of pants/skirts, and because we also wear dresses. 'Tops' is a nice huge category that is for everything that covers only our top half. I personally love and giggle at 'trousers' and 'slacks.'
