Moving day update

James takes aim at my pile of handbags; I bemoan having chosen a career that limits the boundaries of my shoe collection.

My morning: stare at the royal blue-and-white polka-dotted platform espadrilles. Can I live without them for an entire year? Horror rises within me despite the fact that I think I've worn them once in the past two years and maybe twice ever. Also, since I've been in Bangladesh, where time, for fashion purposes, has pretty much stopped, I am guessing that my polka-dotted platform espadrilles would merely gain me funny looks back in the U.S. Repeat with any number of items from my wardrobe.

The fashion in Dhaka is keeping me (and the rest of our program) pretty entertained. I think I'll try to rock my lungi back in the states.
