The callisthenic workout - Getting Dressed
The other morning when I was getting ready for work, I pulled out an outfit to wear for the day. I picked it out pretty instantaneously which is unusual because I often stand in front of the closet staring as if I'm waiting for Alladin to make an outfit appear out of thin air.
After getting dressed, I looked in the mirror and thought "This doesn't look right". So I changed my shirt. "Yeah, this is okay". I went to brush my teeth and then double checked myself in the mirror. "No. This doesn't look right". So I changed my shirt again. Still no. Maybe it's the pants? So back to the closet I go and I pick out a pair of shorts and a different shirt. "Oh no. This one makes me look like I'm wearing a maternity shirt. Nope. On and on this goes for the next 20 minutes. I tell myself I better hurry up or I will be late for work. Is there such a thing as calling in to say you'll be late for a clothing emergency? There should be, am I right?
Different shirts, different pants, different shoes. Nothing seemed to look right today. After changing more times than should be allowed, I realized I had worked up a sweat. I worked up a sweat from changing my clothes. In fact, I probably burned more calories in changing for the morning then I did the rest of the day. Then I thought wow, that could be my work out for the day. It's the new callisthenic workout. We could even set it to music. Now that's a weight loss video I could surely get into. I guess the only problem left to solve is how to call in late to work for a getting dressed crisis. I guess that will be my new email message "I'm not in the office right now, I'm trying to find the right outfit for today. If you need immediate assistance please reach out to the assistant director otherwise, I will get back to you as soon as I figure out what to wear for the day. Thanks.
