D is for Deadbeat
“This garment, which I’ve owned for five years, is made of some magic fabric that doesn’t wilt, wrinkle, or show dirt. It can be squashed down to the size of a rain hat and shoved in the bottom of my handbag without harm. It can also be rinsed out in any bathroom sink and hung to dry overnight. It’s black, lightweight, has long sleeves, zips up the back, and should probably be “accessorized,” a women’s clothing concept I’ve never understood. I wear the dress “as is” and it always looks okay to m...e. Once in a while I see this look of recognition in someone’s eye, but maybe it’s just a moment of surprise at seeing me in something other than jeans and boots.

Now, of course, the entire first floor has been converted into the equivalent of six spacious living rooms, each furnished with metal folding chairs and labeled with some serene-sounding word.MoreLess
