Not so close to simi, of course.
And all the more pleasant for you.
Not that I work in Simi anymore, though. West LA it is. It'll be hard to give up the 2 mile commute, because I know it can't last forever.
You are kind to offer.
No eggs?
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

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

ita, I know all the short cuts from that neighborhood to UCLA. I swear.
I'm so happy about the new place, Allyson!

If any of them can get me there without me driving I might be tempted.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
So after 8.5 years of wearing jeans to work, they just decided to enforce their dress code policy. I spent the weekend running around updating my wardrobe.
The thing is, I hate, hate wearing khakis. I hate how they fit, hate how they look on me. So this weekend I went to about 10 different stores, trying to find corduroys and chinos that are cut like jeans.
I also bought a pair of all-black leather Chuck Taylors, and I'm going to see if I can get away with them.

If they tried to implement a dress code at my workplace, there would be people who literally have nothing to wear. The thought is making me giggle darkly. We as an institution, can dress really really badly. We have a handful of fashion plates, but they are the exception.
Allyson, that's awesome!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

People joke at my office that there's no point of casual day because "everyday is casual day."

Our wings are not tired.
We are extreme casual too. There are company shirts around in case we have to go somewhere and look close to dressed. Flip flops, shorts, and tank tops are the norm.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
My work is all shirts, ties and taylored suits. They make you button up your top button. I HATE THEM ALL.
