If every vampire who said he was at the crucifixion was actually there, it would have been like Woodstock.

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

If only I wore ties.

All you have to do to wear ties is wear ties. Well, I suppose, a shirt that's reasonable to wear ties with is good too. I mean, I don't wear ties now, but once I start, that's done with!

Man, I'm so glad Community is back.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

mac has slept over at the grandparents for 2 nights in a row, unplanned, and without me. First time this has happened EVER. So proud of him. Really hope this means I can take some weekend trips at some point (New Orleans, Austin, Las Cruces - I am looking at you all).

Work is pretty empty today and I am trying to take advantage of it, but doing some filing and supply cabinet reorganization/consolidation. I managed to clean out five file drawers thus far.

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

True, but also of, say, fluffy ruffles, or miniskirts, which I also don't wear. I could wear them, but I feel like I look silly in them.

Granted, I was a lot more bold in my sartorial choices when I was thin. Now I feel like I look silly in anything except a black t-shirt and jeans.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I wore skirts two days this week and you'd think I'd come in Chanel each time from the reaction I got. I'd just been thinking, hey, it's in the 80s, I've had a pedi and my legs are shaved—why not? But apparently I've been wearing trousers so much that skirts are a thing for me.

I liked the feedback, though, so I'll probably do this more often.

That in the end is up to you. I suppose a tie will look strange over my breasts, but, like ruffles, I don't really care.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, there are a ton of things I think look silly on me, but I know that's just me in most cases. Doesn't matter! I will continue to not wear them..

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

All:

I need a fucking vacation. Also? I need to be able to sit down for several hours and think without bullshit.

How can I make this happen?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

ita, who are you facing? Why do you guys need to dress up? I thought your customers were internal.

Get stuck in an elevator? Hide in the stairwell? Drive to an industrial park or other unlikely destination at lunch and then call in with car trouble?

le nubian, I have a spare bedroom in a quiet neighborhood! You could hide here. No one will ever find you.
