You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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

A co-worker accused me of toeing the company line in order to rebel, I guess, unlike him who just rebel rebels. It was weird--we were asked to wear business formal because of guests, and I did (stooge) by wearing a tie (hipster), whereas him just wearing jeans was the apparent right answer.

I don't know how to explain to him that I wear ties because I like them and I can't think of a good reason not to if we're asked to meet a dress code, and it's no skin off my nose meeting a dress code. More than a couple guys have said "But now you know why we hate them, right?"

Clearly wearing both heels and panty hose would be beyond these men, if this is such a massive problem. It's really not a big deal once it's on, and putting it on gets easier every time, even the Windsor knot. Don't make me call your entire gender whiners.

regarding the Alcott love--do you read the abridged or unabridged? I loved Little Women until I read the unabridged and found myself slogging through all the preaching.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Quiet weekend here. Other than the Open Sing tomorrow, I have no plans.

I feel like a bad Buffista: I know this is a reference and I can't remember what from!

Tonight I am going to do laundry, walk my dog and clean my house, and maybe have a salad. Very exciting. Tomorrow I help my brother load the truck. Sunday I run and visit my folks. Woot.

regarding the Alcott love--do you read the abridged or unabridged? I loved Little Women until I read the unabridged and found myself slogging through all the preaching.

I read Little Women abridged (which I did not know until I had the same experience) but the others unabridged.

Speaking of preaching, though, Little Women inspired me to read Pilgrims Progress when I was about 10! Talk about a slog!
