[nabs-l] colour and clothes

Wed Aug 3 20:40:18 UTC 2011

Carley,
Its okay; but I highly suggest you care about the colors; its not a mere 
curiosity.
We live in a sighted world and need to look presentable. Fortunately black 
and caci slacks go with most everything, so matching outfits isn't a big 
deal. I do not label clothes yet, but I do use the safety pin method to 
distinguish my colored pants. I also have some vision and use that to tell 
my shirts/blouses apart as well as what it feels like.

'Evening, Leah,

Admittedly, that was a very flippant and insensitive,  even abusive
comment. I can imagine the last thing Leah needs to hear is some
bitch, who happens to be comfortable living as a blind
person,  hassling her over merely being curious about what  colors
she is wearing.

I am sorry for not thinking before I speak. This board is not for
people who spew their judge mental-sounding, opinions.
Please, forgive me?
for today,
Car
