My mom took me out shopping today!

I can't wear jeans to my new job. And for those that know me, know that I wear jeans almost everyday. My mom took pity on me and my wardrobe. She took me shopping so that the people of Sakura-chi would find my attire acceptable.

The shopping day was successful. I was able to find non-jean attire that satisfied my need for comfort. But that doesn't mean I surfaced from this trip unscathed.

During the outing, I found myself in the dressing room trying on sweaters to go with my new non-jeans and the following exchange occurred:

Mom: Try on the pink one!

Me: No. I don't like pink.

Mom: Come on! It would look so cute.

Me: Mom, I don't do cute and I don't like pink.

Mom: Oh, come out of the closet already!!!!

Me: What did you say?!

Mom: Come out of the closet already.

Me: Thanks.
