Breast Cancer Awareness Month

So I've always said I would try to do something for BCAM. And I never do. Sometimes I wear a ribbon. Sometimes I don't.

But today I came up with a challenge to myself. I'm going to wear pink every day in October. Seriously. If I need to, I can repeat outfits. But truly, I've got enough freaking pink in my closet that I don't think I'll need to. :) I'm going to have one of my RAs take a picture every day and I'll put it on my LiveJournal to see if I can make it my own challenge.

And, I'm going to admit, I've never had a clinical examination... mamm, or anything. So I'm going to go do that this month too.

My great-grandmother had breast cancer, though it wasn't the reason she passed away, but was among many things. I think I'm going to do this for her, and the several other women me and my family knew. I'm making this a challenge for myself... wanna join?

I have pink tank tops, shirts, dressy shirts, skirts... I think I have plenty! Woo!
