Yeah, I think I've finally decided on a burgundy shirt, tie and black pants. I've rarely had occasion to wear ties, even though I own at least four of them. I literally spent over twenty minutes earlier trying to tie one! I was looking at "how to tie a tie" articles on the internet, and still couldn't quite get it. I must have a little hiccup in that part of my motor skills...

I was going to wear a button down shirt with a sweater over it as well, but unfortunately the sweater fits decently with nothing beneath it, but fits a bit too snug with a shirt underneath. So shirt and tie it is!

Try to stop stressing out Wyatt. You will be fine, you are well prepared. Once the interview is done, you'll be wondering why you were so worried.
