I don't know what to look like anymore.
My hair doesn't match my beard. And neither match my general appearance as a middle-aged boy in tee-shirt and sneakers. My outward "look" has become a mish-mash of favorite pieces culled from various looks I've worn over the years, plus some things I've just made up, all stitched back together like a patchwork riot.
I don't know what to do about this. Or if I should even do anything. It's just something I noticed this morning, and felt I should share. (And it was short. I don't have time to write out any of the other, more important things I have to share, because they are complicated and involved and I am stupid fucking busy right now. [Like, literally, stupid-busy. My busy-ness is directly related to the stupidity of others.])
I guess this situation bothers me, now that I've noticed it. But I'm not quite sure how, exactly. Or why. I think perhaps because it was apparently accidental, and I hadn't noticed it before. Like, I have absolutely no problem going out in public looking like a complete dork. I've done it many times. But in each of those instances, that's what I was going for. In this situation, on the other hand, I don't really know how I look at all. I've been concentrating on the individual elements so closely that I've lost sight of the overall picture of how they all fit together. And I found it disconcerting to suddenly realize, "Oh, shit! How did I end up looking like this?? Does it look good or not? Fuck, I can't even tell anymore! And I have no idea what else I would rather do instead."
Wah, wah; boo hoo. Whatever. Again, not a major problem, but just something I noticed and felt like writing down.
