To Retire or Not to Retire

    No, I'm not talking about retiring a profession, but an object. I'm sure I already know what my mother would say, but I'm curious what others might think. I've had my Ferrari hat for quite sometime now. I don't wear it because I like the car, but because my dad gave me the hat. Over the years I've even come to be "known" by the hat, easily recognized in a crowded space. I now have a laptop with Ferrari on it that so nicely matches the hat. Anyways, it is old, and starting to get more and more wear on it. I'm thinking of maybe "retiring" it. Of course, this would not be throwing it away. Maybe I could put it in a glass enclosure, with temp and humidity control too!!

    So, if I WERE to do that, not that I for sure would, I would need another decorative piece to adorn my head in the absence of said hat. So what would I replace it with, a new Ferrari hat? Perhaps one of many hats I have back at my house? Or maybe a different type of hat. Hats, after all, are actually in existance to place shade over your eyes, at least, that was the orginal purpose, in my opinion. Whereas it is nice to have shade from such a sun, on the opposite end, a typical hat covers the part of the body that lets heat escape, thus un-enabling the escape of such heat. Maybe I should get a hat without a top? What to do, what to do... Leave a comment with what you think!

    Well, other than that, 4 weeks of classes gone, 12 weeks left, 25% done!!! Semester is going well so far. Down to only countering 50 pounds of my weight when I do pull-ups and chin-ups. Alright, things to do.

    TUMEO.

Keep the old one around, but just get a new one to wear out. I've been thinking of buying a new one lately too.

I'd say a new hat, change it up a little... then after that, a Ferrari car ;)
