I'd go with khakis and an Oxford shirt, with a possible blazer in the car if he's worried.
This. Khakis nicely pressed and a nice shirt.
I just don't understand my SiL. (Background: She lives in Orange County and is probably geopraphically closer to the hospital than I am from home.) She's upset that the surgery is happening earlier because she was going to come down this evening. Um, because it is *much* more important to have said you were there visibly wringing your hands than to go down at the same time and actually talk with the person when they are in recovery and after. And it just seems so selfish, she wishes the surgery weren't moved up more than six hours for what I think is her image instead of maybe being relieved that this is six fewer hours of my grandma lying there in agony.
I just know I am going to end up deleting this since it is just frustration talking.
I mean, I don't understand her and never will but I am also aware that I am hella overreacting. Especially since I heard it second-hand from my brother when he called. I need people or people-shaped objects to kick in the head. I also need to learn to kick people in the head.
Oh! And...
Happy Birthday, Nicole!!!
That sounds good. I'd avoid jeans and t-shirts for any interview, but what you describe sounds dressy enough to be respectful while avoiding a stuffy suit vibe.
Thanks. I bought him a nice burgundy dress shirt for his birthday and a black and gray tie that isn't the usual striped pattern, so he is leaning toward wearing that with black slacks, no jacket.
Sounds like a classic case of Backpfeifengesicht to me, Cass. Surgery-ma, and no more having to be the sane one ma as well.
{{{Cass}}} Sorry about your sil being an idiot. I hope that the surgery goes smoothly. Take care.

Busted, oh skipperoo! It means "a face asking to be punched" in German and bubbled joyously out of a convo yesterday? in Natter? (memory overloaded, should be working)

It means "a face asking to be punched" in German
And I think it's the new favorite Buffista word. Or maybe just mine.
I think the translation that was posted was even better, something like, "a face crying out for a fist in it", which rocks pretty hard.
Busted, oh skipperoo!
Have not!

I loooooooove it.
in Natter?
Oh, I haven't even skipped over there. I'm a ginormous amount behind and unsubbed cause I could only keep up with Bitches or Natter during the week. I'll skip later though.
Such a classic case of Backpfeifengesich! My grumptasticness has disolved in the face of such a perfect word.
