You know you’re a dyke when …
December 31, 2007
1) You try on 5 different black t-shirts before deciding which one is just tight enough without being too girly,
2) It takes you longer to pick out a belt than to pick out a pair of pants,
3) You choose pants based on how much stuff will fit in the pockets without looking ridiculous, because you will not bring a purse bag [oh the horror!],
4) You spend 15 minutes messing up your hair, and
5) You insist that cover-up does not count as make-up, curse your mother for feeding you chocolate over the holidays and pray that no one will notice a dab here and there.
Lesbian mecca, here I come.

Have you ever heard Suzanne Westenhoefer’s whole thing about The Purse Bearer? She seriously cracks me up.
Have a kick ass time and happy new year!

Hmm… by this test, I’m quite the dykey hetero. You forgot Danskos.
Happy New Year to you and LittleMan. May 2008 be much better and happier than 2007.

Great post! Love it. Go out, have fun and happy new year!
Suzanne is HILARIOUS. How about Georgia Ragsdales bit about being “sporty” — good stuff.

Happy New Year! If you don’t find Ms. Right (or Dr. Right, since you work in Cambridge), I hope you Ms. Right Now over and over and over again.

Does this count if you aren’t gay? Whichever, have a Happy New Year.

There better be stories to tell now that you have gotten the perfect outfit and now that the New Year has started. I carried the purse for us last night….

Appearance, achievement, accoutrements — such a challenge.
Hope all your new resolutions serve you well. Clearly the knitting thing has been a source of pride and consolation.

You know you’re an aging soccer mom when you’re glad it’s cold outside because it means that with all the layers piled on, no one can tell that you haven’t bothered with a bra for days.
It was great to see you yesterday!

Yeah! I must be a lesbian too. I wonder if I should tell my husband.

Dying to hear how Melissa was–I’ve seen her several times and have loved each concert differently.
As I, too, am bidding farewell to a relationship , I keep telling myself “if this is as hard as it gets, then I’ve got a fighting chance.” Sounds like you’re fighting the good fight(s), and winning.
Happy 2008!

OK, I’m not a dyke, but I totally agree with the lack of
pursebag. Unless of course, there’s knitting in it!
