Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I just ordered these. [link]

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I haven't worn jeans to work maybe 10 times in the past decade.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Those are lovely, Jesse.

Also, I have an office pet peeve. Please, if you do this, can you tell me why!!!

Why do people dial the phone and listen to the phone ring on speakerphone, and then pick it up when they get the person. Does this somehow save time? Does the 30 second you can spend without holding the phone really matter? I mean, I understand if you are on a long customer service hold, or if you are going to have the whole conversation on speakerphone, but why just the ringing and dialing!?!

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'm wearing jeans, a pink tank with pink sequins and a hoodie.

I'm wearing jeans, a white blouse that zips, and brown LL Bean mocs (like these, but with a fleece lining for winter).

Every day is casual day here.

Trust my rage

Sophia, my boss does that too. THe only thing I think it saves is untangling the phone cord but to me, that advantage is outweighed by having everyone hear you dialing and the ringing.

Thrive to spite them

People do that in my office Sophia! Drives me nuts, except I catch myself doing it too! I don't understand why it's just contagious.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I haven't worn jeans to work maybe 10 times in the past decade.

Tom is me.

Which makes it convenient that we have the same name....

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Denim is against the dress code here. Not only can we not wear jeans, even on Friday, but denim anything is out. Not that I have a hankering to get in touch with my inner Prairie Muffin and wear a denim jumper, but it's just so picky.

I miss working in jeans. I'm never quite as comfortable in anything else.

Punishingly Intricate

So I just ordered these. [link]

Those look great...I'm tempted to get some too. But I was so burned by the Aerosoles when I tried to order boots a few weeks ago. They claimed to be available on their website but they really weren't. So they ended up canceling both orders.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I'm also the only one who can routinely be found in a bunny suit checking labels on hydrofluoric acid, so I feel like no one gives a crap.

Bunny suit? Is it pink & fluffy, and did you get it by raiding ita's closet?
