You're touching on something that's been on my mind quite a bit lately.

Bear in mind that I started wearing kilts twenty years and two kids into my marriage. How is my wife taking it? I honestly don't know. I've asked her and she says that she isn't sure what she thinks about it.

But I don't push it. Sometimes I wear the kilt, sometimes jeans...and I wear the suit when it's appropriate. I think that the problem arises when the people around you start to think that you are being obstinate and assertive about your right to wear a kilt (read: do whatever YOU want no matter how THEY feel about it). So I try to make it a "non-issue"...and that seems to work well.

So I don't know if Mrs. Argonian thinks that I'm being childish or eccentric or cool or whatever. I always thought that it was, besides being a gesture of solidarity with my ancestors who were the real "do-ers" and pioneers in my family tree, something of a romantic and dashing thing but my Dear Wife seems rather ambivalent about that concept.

Oh, well...hope that most of you are having a better time of it in this regard than I am...

Best
