Hats

I love hats - big hats, baseball caps, bolo caps, forwards, backwards, fisherman, tall, tight, beanies, knit, safari, floppy ears hanging down, doesn't matter. My head was made for caps and I like to wear them. In fact, I'm not a fan of my hair, never have been, I like hats!

Hats are available in the commissary. There's a "plain cap" for about $7 and a knit hat for outdoors. Something tells me that neither of these hats will fit my hat head the right way, but we will see. Thing is, I will not be allowed to wear these hats into the dining hall or to my work or likely to visitation - so for the most part, my hats will only be available to me from 4-9 pm during downtime, except for the dinner time. This defeats the purpose of wearing my hats.

When I pack up my hats (yes, another box still waiting to be filled) my hat box will be filled. My hats will be in storage waiting for me and I for them. Will I choose my Vietnam safari hat? The painters cap? My favorite baseball team's hat? A cap with my college's logo? I don't know, but I will miss my nearly daily choice of what hat "matches" my clothing that I choose to wear for the day.
