So far so good. I switched it up, and it's not too hot, so my layering plan is in full effect. I'm feeling so good about things, I decide to go public and post the project on facebook. I know I'll get some stares and giggles, and some "I'd never do that," and I'm ok with that.
I'm a little shocked to realize not everyone is on board with an anti-consumerism outlook, and they actually think it's irresponsible for me not to do my part to stimulate the economy, but I recover soon enough. While I understand that perspective, I don't identify with it at all. A friend pointed out that this project has some themes in common with Annie Leonard's Story of Stuff Project. We spend all this time as Americans acquiring and managing stuff, and I definitely want off that merry go round.
I'm very grateful for the support I have received for this project, both in person and online. Thanks guys!
