I Am Not A Robot

Yes, I am wearing a dabbin’ Santa Claus shirt in May. It is short-sleeved, at least. I opened the closet door, and it’s the first shirt my hand touched. I just wasn’t in the mood to make any kind of bigly wardrobe decision at the moment. Black sheep Tie o’ the Day was a no-brainer after I saw the shirt. This look is a bit matchy for me, but the red-and-white has a major Delta Rabbit vibe to it which dandies it up properly. In honor of high school Seniors o’ the Pandemic everywhere, check out my rabbit-y class ring which I somehow haven’t managed to lose despite my traipsing to and fro across the land, lo these many decades. I am not a robot. I am a Rabbit.

Upon Reflection

As I’m continuing my reorganization of The Tie Room—including completing an extensive neckwear Census 2020—it occurs to me to introduce you to my “emergency” Tie/Bow Tie o’ the Day. I refer to them as my “in case” neckwear. I made them by simply covering two brave volunteers in reflective tape. These two live together in their own speshul briefcase, separated from any other neckwear hooligans. They are my frontline Tie/Bow Tie , for when I am going to be in dangerous situations and must be visible. So far, dangerous situations have amounted to the few times when I’ve been walking or biking in the dark. Neither of those things ordinarily happen. But just in case, these two stand ever-ready in their briefcase. Get it? 😜

FYI I feel like James Bond when I carry the tiny, ready-for-perilous-emergency briefcase.
