On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Friday question (mostly for the ladies): When was the last time you wore hose (pantyhose, stockings, whatever you prefer)? I wear opaque tights all the time in the winter, but I can't think of the last time I wore hose. I know I wore 'em to a wedding in Richmond VA in October 2002 - but I don't think since. Do big-city professionals wear them to work any more (Jesse, bon bon, Vortex)? Are they ever mandatory any more?

Yesterday.

Heh, I was thinking, "I bet lawyers are the last hose holdouts." Do you have a dress code (official or unofficial)?

Yesterday.
You poor thing.
I've worn them on interviews in the past year and to weddings, but I don't think I've worn them to work since I was at a university in NJ.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wore stockings semi-regularly in the transition weather between tights and bare legs, but I don't usually have to wear them, so I don't! I think the last time was actually in May for an event.

And yes, I do see a lot of women in suits and nylons on their way to their (apparently) fancy Wall Street jobs.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Wearing them today, wore them yesterday, wore them on Tuesday. That's fairly frequent for me. But if I'm seeing a client or going to court (or a deposition, something like that), I wear a suit, and all my suits are skirt suits (pants suits are just too complicated to fit and maintain). So a couple times a month. If I'm just wearing a skirt to work in warm weather, it's bare-legged.
