Shorts story

Today I had to walk up to my allergist's office around lunchtime. It was a pretty average DC summer day--around 90 and muggy--but nothing too out of the ordinary. Still, despite wearing a short-sleeved shirt and cotton khaki pants, by the time I got back to the office (about a 20-minute walk) I felt like I'd just done jumping jacks in a sauna. Oh, to be wearing shorts instead! But then I saw the pictures accompanying this story about men wearing shorts to the office and it actually made me kind of glad that our dress code isn't likely to accommodate shorts anytime soon...
