I just ordered these in pink yesterday
I own those! They're more light red than pink to my eye and I love love love them.
I have finesse! I have finesse coming out of my bottom!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I just dozed off at my desk.
I really hate not having an office door in this office.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Is there any way to keep asparagus fresh for, oh ten days?
I am thinking whack the ends off and plop in a flower vase in the fridge. That or go door to door offering a couple pounds of asparagus to strangers.

It echoes down the hallway... FLIPFLOPFLIPFLOPFLIPFLOP.
Wrong sound. Unless they are brand-spanking new, they go SHMECKSHMECKSHMECK...
I wear flip flops at home. But that's it. I wear them because they are cheap, minimal and I hate stuff sticking to my feet just a tad more than I hate not being barefoot and with cats that's inevitable.
In other cat news, who has a brain the size of a walnut?! Who! That's right, Devi. Not two days after being shut in the closet all night, what did she do? Get shut in the closet. Luckily maybe 5 minutes this time. She didn't show up for food and that's unheard of.
My ac is still working. Which is good because it appears the former leasing office turned workshop burned down AGAIN. With brand new acs inside. make nervous noises
Continuing the random, I saw a very swank and shiny new tow truck. Emblazoned on the rear window was "Keep a repossession expert employed : Miss 2 payments." The crossbar for the lift read "Hate on me now!" Made me laugh. Better be a big scary looking dude.

You are absolutely correct. That *is* the sound. Drives me bonkers.

SHMECK is perfect. And it is possible to walk in them, not silently, but less SHMECKily. If I can hear you coming down the hall when I'm in my office with door closed, you need to practice at home until you can avoid thwapping your heal with the shoe at every step.
Hey, it's raining! What a wonderful surprise!
the former leasing office turned workshop burned down AGAINWow. That's doesn't inspire confidence.

That's just mean.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I have very thin strapped, kitten heeled white sandals. THey are slides and have the thing between the toes.
And I haven't been able to find a picture of me standing on Saturday day at the F2F, but anyone who saw me can attest that I did not do the white trash thin jersey gaucho thing, even though they were thin jersey.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
Yeehaw! I'm freeeeee! Of the QA assignment at least.
I'm going into a major, major project that will need overtime and stuff. But at least it's working on an application that I know a lot about programming, and can work on neat code and solve problems and do work I actually find kind of fun....

IME, Washington DC is not a flip-flop city. It's not even a bare legs or toes city. When I was temping there (okay, 12 years ago, maybe it's modernized?) I was told that for the first day I should always wear a skirt, and then look to see if any women were wearing pants; if they did I could.
I also recently heard someone here (NC) dismissing a job interviewee who came to the interview in flip flops and with wet hair, although otherwise well dressed.
