It’s summertime so I’ll probably wear my Converse to go see OAR. In the winter I wear Doc’s everywhere except to work, (sometimes I wear them there too) and this got me thinking. I mean I know I am perpetually stuck in the ’90’s everything about me screams that. Everyone who knows me knows about my love for grunge music and My So-Called Life. Yup, I loved me some Jordan Catalano and some Buffalo Tom music.

I play “Late at Night” in the shower sometimes, and wear way too much flannel, I might have a flannel shirt on right now at 5 am as I type. I told you it’s bad.

But, really here is my question, am I too old for Converse and Doc Martens? I don’t feel too old, I’ve always worn them. Well, not when I was married to my ex-husband because he was a douche but before and after yes.

Is age just a number or are we dead after forty and should act accordingly? The thing is I feel comfortable in my old standbys, they’re comfortable and familiar and in the end, I still want to be a little Emo wherever I go. It’s who I am after all, and today I love who I have become and if I have a few wrinkles and grey hair so be it.

I’m wearing the converse to my grave people, I think I want to be buried in them too!
