Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Thanks, y'all I smushed your excellent suggestions up into one, way improved, sentence and sent the whole document off to the VP.

A denim skirt sounds perfectly acceptable.
And I don't need more clothes.
I'm sure I don't either, and yet I'm browsing a bunch of different blazers. And skirts.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I also could do with more blazers and turtlenecks. Despite oncoming LA summer. It's still going to be wintry in this office, as long as I'm employed here.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I am getting many compliments on my Easter egg nails. Which is fun and all, but it makes me realized I NEED to see Kat very soon so I can trade her cash monies for some groovy Nubar nail polish.
The things that get shuffled to the bottom of my to-do list. Damn shame, I say.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
The check engine light went on in my car on my drive home. I'm going to drop it off at the dealer early tomorrow and hope it isn't anything major. Feh.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I think I need a reality check. There's this post on consumerist [link] about a vegan blog that put together a recipe for a vegan version of the KFC Double Down. I thought the post was funny. But a lot of the comments are things like "Vegans: You have the right to eat whatever you want, just don't try to get me to go vegan or act all morally superior about it" or "Why do vegans have to be so self-righteous? Different strokes for different folks, live and let live." And I'm puzzled. The one thing in that post that I can see as insulting anybody is a swipe at KFC.
But now I'm worried that, if people are seeing self-righteousness and moral superiority in a post where I see having fun with food and chemistry, do people hear that when I talk about my food? Is there something in that post that I'm not seeing that's provoking that reaction, something that I should try to avoid but don't know to avoid because I don't know it's there?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
It's not you; it's them. Hell, if someone can't tell that the vegans are even poking fun at themselves in that post, they certainly can't tell the difference between self-righteousness and, uh, whatever is not self-righteous.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Some people hear vegetarian or vegan and instantly assume they are being judged for not eating that way.
The brother of an former boyfriend tried to get me to argue with him because he ordered a steak at dinner. He was all "Aren't you a vegetarian?" He was really perplexed that I didn't care what he ate.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hil, I don't ever see anything self-righteousness or morally superior in your posts about food (or anyone else's here). I'm pretty sensitive to that, being as I once dated a vegan who really WAS insufferably righteous about it.
