Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

The gaucho and high boot trend is one even I notice, and I really hate it.

I wish I had access to the photo of 7 year-old me (1977) in my Christmas outfit of short-sleeved tan sweater, tan gauchos, and brown tall boots. It's hysterical.

ION, Tom Cruise will RIDE THE SUBWAY to promote MI:III's premiere at the Trbeca Film Festival. (No, I don't know why this is news either, unless you want to be sure and not ride the subway that day.)

Make that "The Daily Show must book him as a guest."

I'd love to see him on the Colbert Report, with Stephen interrogating the impostorinterviewing him as if he were The Daily Show's Jon Stewart.

for someone who won't wear shorts (above the knee), capris/gauchos/cropped pants are a nice option - they also seem to be more acceptable at work than shorts.

On the other hand "dress shorts" are evil.

Aimee and I can sit together wearing gauchos and looking fabulous.

Dress shorts are of the devil. Unless you are a camp counselor or Julie on Love Boat, shorts are never an acceptable work option.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Aimee and I can sit together wearing gauchos and looking fabulous.

Yes, ma'am, we will.

I love my new ones. I wore them in Vegas.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Today is a crazy day at work. I am uber tired and want to leave early, but have a concert to attend this evening. I think I will leave work early tomorrow.

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

I am wearing my character shoes today. My ongoing boot evaluation is on hold, pending thigh recovery.

I love the character shoes even more now that I've gotten them resoled. Friction. It's what's for dinner.

A few of my co-workers will be relocating. The company's making it very attractive. I will miss some of them, not least of all because I'll have no one to spin tales to of the krav instructors. I feel like building a mythos is in my sweaty little palms. What will I do when I have no audience to regale?

Uh, I mean, much happiness to them in their new digs.

WhatEV.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have to confess that the gauchos and boots thing has totally grown on me.

What should I have for lunch?

Pirates of the Caribbean, the classic Disney theme park adventure brought to the big screen in Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl, is adding new characters and features from the blockbuster entertainment franchise and debuting when the next adventure begins in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest.

Both the Disneyland Resort in California and Walt Disney World Resort in Florida will close the attraction in March to complete the updates in time for the opening of Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest on July 7. The attraction will re-open at Disneyland on June 24 and in Florida's Magic Kingdom on July 7.

The attraction will feature the addition of two of Hollywood's most infamous buccaneers, Captain Jack Sparrow and his nemesis Barbossa. Joining the wildest crew that ever sacked the Spanish Main, Captain Jack and Barbossa add an exciting new twist to the attraction's original storyline as they race to be the first to claim a cache of plundered treasure.

Is it too much to hope that the exciting new twist is of the slashtastic variety?
