Sweaters, Holiday

A good librarian should have enough appliqued holiday sweaters so that he or she can wear a different one each day from Thanksgiving to Christmas.  If you wear the same Rudolph sweater over and over, you may inadvertently subject your library coworkers to the condition known as festive fleece fatigue.

Even moth-eaten ones count. And Holdiay socks. Don't wear the same pair either.

To extend your range of holiday socks, try wearing one from each of two pairs. This can extend the range considerably if you include the left-right foot alternatives.

Don't forget Jewelry! By adding festive brooches or earrings can really make those outfits.

I have always thought that wearing so many different clothes in rotation, indicates that you are already an overpaid librarian who can afford more clothes than any one person actually needs.

So hoard the millions of dollars that you have socked away in your retirement plan, and wear the mothball scented, narly, garishly colored, one-of-a-kind holiday sweater as often as you want to...

While pleading the administration for a cost of living increase in your wages!

Is there not an "Ugly Holiday Sweater" contest just for librarians? If not, there should be, and it should come with pictures so that the vilest 12 sweaters can become the 'calendar-du-jour' for the new year!
