For those that don't know, my situation when I'm not at uni is something like this: I get the opportunity to dress at home every night if I want it (my family retires early), but I have to be quiet and I stay in my room in case I meet anyone going to the bathroom on the landing, or someone gets up etc. This makes it decidedly less special, and whilst it's nice to have the option I very often don't take it as it sometimes seems more hassle than it's worth!
Today I woke up to find the house empty, with my parents out on a walk. They left a note but didn't specify when they'd be back, and since I'm very cautious I've spent the last few hours having a pretty normal day. Just now though, my parents phoned to say they were going to be home later than planned, in fact a full 2 hours from the phone call. So, with the time stamp I needed, I naturally ran upstairs and threw on a bra, panties and one of my favourite dresses! I feel so much more alive - not only am I more awake than when I normally dress but I'm free to move around the house as I please. I'm currently sitting here making maths revision notes and even that doesn't seem a chore - every time I have to stand up to get more notes I get to feel the dress swishing around my thighs.
Times like these do make me wish I hadn't left my heels and newer clothes at uni though!
