Liese, that's a great shirt.
I am hiding in the library, which is problematic as I have LOADS to do today. But in a good way. I wish I had a place to do it, like a classrom or an office.
Anyway, can someone please hope for smooth sailing?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Or he's actually evil.
My guess is he considers condoms to be evil, and it's justified for him to lie to get people to not use them.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Eh. My boss's boss got some bad feedback from his management, and then he had to immediately call an all-hands meeting to communicate it to us. He overreacts to things.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm glad that's all it was, Tom.

Now tagless for your comfort.
That's a relief, Tom.
Smooth sailing, Kat!
Day's half gone and I only have one child dressed. We need to get around and run some errands.

DH bought this stupid projection clock so I have a big red LED numbers projected on the ceiling. It's bad enough tossing and turning and rolling over to see the clock. When it's staring down at you in giant red numbers, UGH.
Oh hell no! Evil!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
I was worried, Tom!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Nothing like a good work overreaction.... Like the time my boss was out sick for weeks on end and the CEO called us all into her office... to let us know to feel free to go to her with any issues. Shit, we could have gotten an email that said that!

Punishingly Intricate
WOOHOOO OVERREACTION ROCKS!!!!! (um...glad it wasn't really bad news anyway)
Last night I went to the mall to see if I could find something to wear to my friend's mid-day outdoor wedding in FL next week. After trying on every single vaguely possible dress at Anthropologie where nothing fit right, I found this at Banana Republic and got it.
And then we took a spin through H & M, just to check it out, and found a raspberry dress with, of all things, an empire waist. I may look slightly pregnant in it but like an effing FABULOUS pregnant lady.
I would never have tried it on if my friend I was shopping with (the bride actually) hadn't been there. But she loved it so much i just had to try.
And it looks great with my favoritest turquoise sandals that I was hoping to wear. Crazy!
Anyway, I think I'll keep the first dress because I think it looks pretty good and will be handy. Even though I feel guilty because it was expensive and the H & M dress was only $35.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Smooth sailing, Kat!
Liese, that's a great shirt.
Isn't it? 10 bucks! I bought one in violet and one in black. If I like it, I'm totally buying the other two colors, 'cause they're all jewel tones. It needs to turn up, though, 'cause I leave for the venue in an hour. UPS shows it on the truck for delivery, but who knows when it'll actually land on my porch. I should have it for tomorrow's show, though.
Between all the Tim Gunning and our conversation here, I went to buy books for the kiddoes at the youth center and saw a copy of Color Me Beautiful. Hee! I bought it (it was a quarter) and remembered all the stuff in it. It's crazy politically incorrect (calls me Oriental, for one) but I remembered that I do look really good in jewel tones.
I would be happy to have an all-black wardrobe. It would be an improvement over the outdoorsy identity color schemas. But if I'm going to add color to my wardrobe, and I think I should, I think I'll add red and purple. Those are appropriately dark and bloody enough, shouldn't freak my kiddoes out too badly, and are primary or jewel colors I should be able to wear.
