Buffistas

I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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

there's the inherent casualness of the beach!

There's nothing inherently casual about beaches. It's not their fault people keep showing up mostly naked.

Friend here had a formal beach wedding. The women in high heels (including me) took their shoes off for the parts on sand. Which doesn't quite counter the casual argument, but our dresses looked lovely.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Yes, Plei has a pair of the freaky hobbit shoes.

Yes, I remember gorgeous beach pictures from Caroline Kennedy's wedding.

I AM TOTALLY CALLING THEM THIS TO S's FACE FROM NOW ON!

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

I have a friend who's training for a marathon and swears by the freaky hobbit shoes. I still do a double take every time I see someone wearing them on the street, though.

Punishingly Intricate

OMG those toe shoe things are super creepy! I don't care how comfortable they are. Why can't they make some kind of, like, toe cover for them? ugh

My office doesn't have a dress code aside from, basically, dress like a grown up if you're going to meet a client. If there was suddenly some sort of no tee shirt rule they'd have to fucking give me money to go to a tailor or something to make non-tee like shirts that actually fit me. Because those are very rare.

I'm in jury duty today and paid the $6 to get the wireless access. I'm officially addicted to the internet I guess.

Happy birthday, sarameg!!! We need to make a plan to get together! This week (and the weekend will be) super nuts.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I don't care if they look freaky. If they don't hurt and they let my feet move and feel the ground, I'll buy them. I hate wearing shoes. I'm such a hippie.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I think with regard to dress codes, the fancier t-shirts that women wear count as a "shell" which hardly anyone wears anymore.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

The past week, I've been wearing denim shorts and a tank top to my office. I usually add a hoodie once I get there, since the air conditioning makes it freezing.

Happy Birthday, sarameg! Would love to see you guys if there are birthday shenanigans to be had...

Sitting in Starbucks before going in to work at noon. Do not want.
