Yo, let Trudy do it.
nuh uh !
I've met B, she is SCARY with the charm and the gorgeous and the loving and the warm. Ain't no way I could stand up to that. I just want the mask.
Zoe: Is there any way I'm gonna get out of this with honor and dignity? Wash: You're pretty much down to ritual suicide, lambie-toes.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I'll do it. I'm pretty ruthless.
And Beej?
BWAHAHAHA! That's frickin' hilarious.

Up with the sun
Skippety-skipping with a clothing question: If a hiring manager specifically says "We're a casual office, so no need to wear a suit or stockings," should I take that seriously? I'm thinking green top with elbow sleeves and a ballet neckline, black knee-length flared skirt, black china flats, but I don't want to blow it by not putting my jacket on.

With the mask comes the responsibility, Trudy.
Too funny, Beej.
My mom used to burn her tampons over the gas flame in the kitchen, because they had trouble with vermin getting into their garbage. She said it made her feel like she was performing some arcane rite.

We used to go to a campground on the Lake Huron shore that had latrines in these old cedar shacks. I got desensitized to spiders right quick. But the smell--ugh. And I never felt clean afterwards. Hated it then, don't have to hate it now because my folks no longer pay my bills and Can't Make Me Go Camping.
Aimee, I'm sorry you're feeling bad about not going to the spa weekend. Bu tI think your response is quite sensible and thoughtful.

I always err on the side of caution. Wear the jacket, but unbuttoned.

Go you, Aimee. I know it's really hard, but you are doing the right thing. I'm sorry you have to deal with this.
I'm about to head off to work. It's Hawaiian day, and I have a lei, a flower in my hair and a cute little tote bag with a hula dancer on it.
I don't wanna go.

First day or interview, Lyra Jane? Either way, I'd go a little formal till you can get a feel for the atmosphere yourself. What you describe + removable jacket sounds good - if the office is way casual you just hang the jacket over your arm or a chair or something.

What is even happening?
Aimee, I think that is a great response.
