Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I would like to note that Martha Stewart's new Chow-Chow puppy is ADORABLE: [link]
OMG-- FLUFFY! Looks so much like Mooshu did as a baby.
ETA, because O.J. definitely not much with the fluffy.
ARGH. How do I not have any outfits appropriate for going to a cocktail-y christmas party?? I have several formal dresses. Long and gorgeous. But those are TOO formal. I have several work-wear dresses, which are not nice enough, not fun and December-y enough. Not enough bling. But I have nothing short or sparkly or anything. Not even separates. My wardrobe has CASUAL and it WORK and it has FORMAL and it has nothing in the middle. WTF, wardrobe? How have you failed me?? And how can I go find something perfect in the next THREE HOURS???
Damnit. Because of course, I had to actually do some work, this morning.
I might feel just a little pressure to look nice and Just Right at the girl's company Christmas party, for which I have NO IDEA how people are dressing. Because, of course, she first claimed it was "semi-casual" (which I told her was NOT A DRESS CODE!) and which she then claimed yesterday "Oh, by the way, a lot of people are like, dressing up for this". SIGH.
I'm having an unlucky week. I've wiped out on ice, gotten pulled into tons of last-minute meetings, had a project come back from the dead to haunt me all week, broken a glass I liked, had light bulbs pop the moment I turn on a light, scalded my hand on coffee, AND it's four frigging degrees outside right now.
I'm bruised, scratched, and randomly bleeding, and at this rate I'm worried that I'll need a crash helmet to get through the weekend.
Scoop-neck cashmere sweater, shortish straight skirt (wool or suit fabric), fun/sparkly/lace hose/tights, a little earring bling? You must have 3 out of 4 of those.

Pretty sure she needs something a little sturdier than that. Chain mail? Bubble suit?

DH is in Las Vegas grading actuarial exams and playing craps. I'm in Indiana with the kids. Something is VERY wrong with this.

Yes. The kids should be learning to contribute to the family income at the craps table. These are hard economic times!
You should plan a trip to Vegas without him. Like maybe in February.
