But some pieces of science are interpreted by university press offices who deliver them back to me. Sometimes, the message is so strong that I am nevertheless impressed, and need tooooooooooooo tell my beloved followers. Like an article I just read: “Modern Parenting may hinder brain development.”
As that kid in Peanuts says, “AAUUGGHH!” I had always believed that civilization progressed only forward. I became a history buff when I was a child largely because I believed a dictum (which was once attributed to Harry S. Truman; more recently, I think, to Winston Churchill and now, to George Santayana.)

Research marches on.
I have been sometimes asked ahead of time if and how a woman can avoid this. For many years I have been recommending pre-marital evaluations to friends as well as patients. Many years ago women were shocked and shrugged their shoulders. I was “ruining” romance. I always told them that it was their call how they chose to live life.

I really feel flattered and honored when someone comes up to me in a parking lot and tells me I have the best fashion sense he has ever seen. It is especially nice because I am with my husband. Usually this sort of thing happens when someone ambushes me during the 15 minutes or so I have been separated from my husband at Walmart, so I have to file a support with him after the fact.
But this time he was an eye witness.

I have read a bit about how fashions are supposed to have an effect on the stock market and politics and heaven knows what else.
I wear fashions because of how they make me feel. Today it was sunshine yellow because I was hit with a streak of optimism.
I have since heard of “fashion psychology” as a field. Fashion psychologists sit with women finding out what colors they have preferred, and what styles, and helping them choose a new wardrobe for, presumably, a happier future.
In this way, at least, I do not think I am so complicated. I love the styles I grew up loving in the latter half of the twentieth century.
I could not purchase the clothes of female authority then, for I was both too financially challenged and too heavy.
My favorite color changed from blue to purple to hot pinks and magentas as I found a little success and optimism.
If you feel good about yourself when you look in the mirror, what you are wearing is a very good choice.

The internet is so much infiltrated into our lives that most folks seem to spend more time relating to “virtual” personalities than they do to flesh and blood personalities. Read more on Are You There?…
