A Cowboy and Me

by Tammy Gilbert - Story Teller & Published Author, Decorator & Aesthetician

Tan Is The New Black

June 24, 2018 by Tammy Gilbert

So let me just begin this blog post by saying:

I love my Cowboy…I really really do BUT creativity is definitely not his strong point. Especially when it comes to his wardrobe.

From the waist down, with his boots and wranglers (ahhh those wranglers) he scores a 10 EVERY single time.

But let’s chat a minute about his choice of attire for his upper half.  If you ask him to describe his perfect shirt, it would have these attributes:  2 pockets, a collar, light starch, long sleeves with buttons but he prefers snaps (no surprise there) and the color would be tan. Yep, plain as day TAN.  And, he would say that tan is the new black. So if you ever look in Cowboy’s closet, he would have 2 colors that stand out the most, wrangler blue (I just created that color) and tan.  On my side of the closet (which sparkles) you would see every color of the rainbow and a few in between…like cheetah print, which would be my primary color of choice❥

This is a typical conversation between the two of us when we have an event to go to:

COWBOY: How do I look?

ME:  You’re not wearing that.

COWBOY:  Why?

ME:  Because it’s a tan shirt, you wear tan EVERY day.  I bought you a new shirt and I just picked up from the cleaners.  It’s hanging on the back of the closet door.

COWBOY:  (as he is walking back to his closet to change mimicking me) I’m a grown man, I should be able to wear what I want…tan or not.

ME:  I can hear you and you sound like a 4 year old.

5 minutes later-

ME:  (Looking at him as he exits his closet) That shirt looks good on you and it’s not even tan…who would’ve thought?!  While I’m thinking about it, when Boy Wonder and Red get married next month I don’t want you complaining about what they ask you to wear.

COWBOY:  I already know what I’m wearing, Red told me yesterday.

ME:  Really? Is it a suit?  I bet you’re going to hate that! You have to promise to keep your jacket on until after the pictures.

COWBOY:  Nope, it’s wranglers and a long sleeved shirt.

ME:  What color shirt?

COWBOY: (chuckling) T A N.

ME:  Sweet Jesus! Are you kidding me?!

’til next Sunday y’all- Tammy❥

Cowboy was in the living room nestled in Lolita’s arms (his recliner) watching the rodeo so I decided it was the perfect time to walk past him and stand in front of the tv.

COWBOY: (Looking at me with a not so pleasant face) What is that smell?…
