I always change into comfortable clothes after work because I'm either about to cook, walk the dog or work out. So many of my work clothes are things that I don't wash or dry clean every time I wear them that I like to get them safely back on the hanger before someone walks across me with muddy paws.
What you did to me was unbelievable, Connor. But then I got stuck in a hell dimension by my girlfriend one time for a hundred years, so three months under the ocean actually gave me perspective. Kind of a M.C. Escher perspective, but I did get time to think.

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 generally don't care if I have cat hair on me. (Maybe I just got too spoiled when I had a Devon Rex.)
But since my boss brings his dog to work, I'll often come home with dog hair all over my pants, so I figure everything balances out anyway.

The feminists have continued their campaign against marriage through Joe Biden's favorite legislation, the Violence Against Women Act, which provides a billion dollars a year to feminist centers to promote divorce and oppose reconciliation.

I also change out of work clothes, for the comfort (I love tights, but after 10 hours, my leg hair gets sore), and dry-clean only cleanliness (snot-nosed kids) factors. Also in winter I keep it colder in the house than work, so I would be cold in some work outfits.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I mean, if I post something she wrote, the reaction will be laughter, not outrage, right?
Yes. Or, at least eye-rolling.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
When I worked in business attire (suits everyday), I changed when I got home to save on dry cleaning. I didn't do it AS much when I went to business casual. The past few places I've worked have had the dress code of "cover your bits", so I don't change much since my work clothes are jeans and sweaters (or capris and t-shirts).
However, all the talk of fleece Indoor Pants has my thinking about making some for myself. They can't be all THAT hard, can they?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Three HUNDRED posts later, and you're still talking about INSIDE PANTS??!!?!?!!!INTERROBANG???!!?!?!
I stay in my work clothes only if I'm expecting to see someone outside my immediate family in between getting home and bedtime.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Now that I have roommates I've been forced to develop an inside wardrobe.
So far, it is t-shirts and shorts. Sometimes when I'm feeling sassy I get my Jilli on and wear the bloomers I made for Halloween with a band shirt (specifically, Brine & Bastards. might as well go for it and wear the striped pirate gear).
I need to buy a robe because wearing a bathtowel between my bedroom and my bathroom in the morning isn't fooling anyone -- since I shower at night. Roommates have not changed my naked sleeping ways. Only REALLY cold weather does and that's when I break out the granny gown. The match.com commercial guy would find me very feast or famine.
No slippers, no socks, no shoes. They all suck.
I have steam heat -- "as nakey as possible" is perfectly reasonable.
