subway smell and adult children

First of all I made the mistake yet again of eating IN subway for lunch. Now I must bask in this god awful smell of freshly baked bread which surprisingly clings on for a good 10hrs. My brother was in town and today was my cheat day on eating healthy but I didn't take it over board I picked subway to be on the safe side. He made the comment when we got in the car "Damn, I'm going to smell like onions all day!" I chuckled to myself and thought "yeah it kind of does smell like onions as well as bread baking". My brother-in-law says it smells like body odor! so I am walking around soaked in the stench of body odor and onion bread. ATTRACTIVE!

Anyway on to my next topic. This is the first thing that caught my eye this morning as I was wheeling into work with a fogged over window and maybe still a bit of sleep in my eye. There was a lady walking super slow right where I needed to turn in of course, since I was running late. She was wearing an outfit that I swear a 7 yr. old girl had picked out for her. Wait not even a seven yr. old would pick this out, it was an outfit that a 7 yr. old's grandmother had bought her for her birthday and was obligated to wear at least once. Corduroy green pants, a cream turtle neck with what I am assuming was some sort of cat or teddy bear print all over it with a hideous vest to cover up some of the disturbing print. Okay my question is why would a woman of her age find this appropriate to wear? and when do you become suddenly old enough to dress like a little kid again and people allow it... because your old! It makes no sense to me whatsoever. I know, I know one day I won't be hip any more... I'll have children, a family, etc. but for god sake I am not going to find it okay to wear teddy bears and cats on my clothing! It makes me chuckle a little and wonder at the same time what people are thinking in their mind about my attire.
