AJM has been bugging me to toss my old jammies because the seat is worn thin and they don't fit me very well. So today after working out, I dragged him to the mall to show him some velour jammies at The Gap. I liked them because they were soft, but there wasn't a matching top that either of us liked.
So we looked at the sale rack and found a pretty pink cotton pointelle knit set. Oh so soft and only 1/3 the original price. I don't think I've ever owned pink jammies before. In fact, I used to sleep in the nude. But since I had pneumonia, I now spend many nights sleeping on the couch sitting up. So it's nice to have something to wear as I traipse around the house in the middle of the night.

I've owned various apparel for sleep, but one of my very favorites for lounging and traipsing was a cotton kimono you sent from Japan. Unfortunately it was stolen out of the trunk of our car when we were in NYC--we were parked next to the WTC for less than fifteen minutes, but I suppose that's more than enough time for professionals.
