Rest In Peace To My Favorite Hoodie

I’d rather my favorite hoodie rest in peace versus resting in pieces. I’ve owned my SCAD-Atlanta hoodie for five years and I think it’s time to let it go. It’s been my security blanket for so long that wearing became a habit. Oh, I used to tell myself that I was only wearing it to keep warm, but I think subconsciously I was wearing it to remain invisible to the world. I have a feeling that my former coworkers thought that I didn’t own shirts because all they ever saw was me in this zipped up hoodie.

I’m not sure I am ready to be visible to the world, but I’m going to give my overworked hoodie a much needed vacation. I’ll keep it in my closet, but I’m not going to wear it anymore. And with this decision comes the realization that I’ll have to go shopping for a nice sweater to keep at my desk. ugh
