I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Sleeping with the boss, clearly.
It sounds like you and the coworker could have fit into the "catalog page" thing we used to do at my old job when we weren't matchy-matchy, but somehow coordinating. I think that was just us, though.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Paging brain bleach to the white courtesy phone...

Weirdos.
I could see she was going to talk to me about something (she's spoken to me once before about my LotR decorated desk), and I really thought it was the boots. I hate when people react to my clothes. That's exactly why I need Week of Dressing Dangerously--I'll currently wear anything, but I do need people to pretend I'm perfectly plainly garbed.

Possibly a little weird, but it happened a ridiculous amount -- we'd all be in the same color family, if not the same color.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
At least twice I've showed up to an event dressed the same as my sister. At least once, I think we were wearing the same brands of shirt and pants too.
More often than not at my last job I'd show up dressed like the gay guy who had the office nearest my desk. This saddened my mother.

Oh, lord, my sister and I went through a period of a couple of months once when we were living in the same place, but didn't see each other before/while dressing, and came out practically the same every single day. There was a lot of sentence finishing, too. Weirdness.

I don't think my sister and I will ever dress like again. Those roads have diverged. I'm some sort of girly girl with a boot fetish, and she's adamantly casual.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Of the 11 people here today, 7 of them are wearing hoodies (including me) Ah, the businesslike nature of post-production.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
I first ran across the phrase, "Bob's your uncle" in a book. The newly-single woman was making her bed, and the section was something like:
Just pull the sheet and comforter up and, Bob's your uncle, the bed is made. And, while Bob may or may not be your uncle, if you can make your bed in 15 seconds or less, Bob is definitely not your lover.
