You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Black dress shoes can look a bit funny with bluejeans, but I don't think the same is true of sneakers. Certainly not those Converse ones with the white trim.

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

I would totally take a nap if I didn't envision another sleepless night because I took a nap during the day.

I am indulging in episodes of Clean House because I don't feel well, and because they make me feel morally superior. I forgot the part where the hoarders drive me crazy.

I gotta say, I have seen some Italians who look really, really good in the sport coat and jeans look. (In Italy, natch.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think in this day and age there are dressy jeans that go with dressy shoes, and non-dressy ditto. Especially for women, but men, too.

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

I think we can safely ignore pretty much everything Hamilton Nolan asserts, most particularly when it comes to fashion (or finance, for that matter, or, again, everything).

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

I think sports coats are perfectly cromulent with jeans. If that guy had meant suit jackets, I'd have agreed with him in many (male) contexts. Totally not sport coats.

I don't like the idea of dress shoes (typed hoes there at first) with jeans, but I'm sure some people (and/or designers) could pull it off.

Man, I feel sufficiently sick that I would go home, but I called in a prescription to the pharmacy near work (which I haven't done in about a year) for four o'clock, SO.

I pictured high class call girls there.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Man, I used to wear heels with sweat pants and I thought I was stylin'

It was the 80s, of course. That may have had something to do with it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

As in denim, or the same shade in any fabric?

Apologies for the delay -- I came back from a meeting to find an emergency.

Same shade, any fabric. And not just with blue jeans, it's any color clothing unless it's a suit. I just don't like the way I look if my casual pants and casual shirt are the same color.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

It's called the Zion Curtain

Interesting. Now I'm mentally checking the restaurant/bars I've been in here. One I can't picture it, our table was in full view of the bar, but maybe the other part of the restaurant had an obstructed view. The place I ate last night definitely hid the bar.

I've worn heels with my jeans and definitely black shoes of various styles.

I had a horrible dream last night that someone had broken into my hotel room and was taking my stuff and talking to me about taking my stuff, but I refused to get out of bed to deal. Ummmm. Kinda panic inducing wake up from that one.
