See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Well, the CMO will be there, so it's not just a regular weekend party.

But, really, either the dress code should have been stated with the original invitation, or not at all. Barely the day before is just not on.

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

That sounds like someone asked and whoever was in charge wanted to not place expectations too high. Wear what you want.

I'll have to work on a stern and steely gaze to accompany the statement, "Of COURSE this is business casual. Please note that it's an underbust corset."

A stern and steely gaze sounds like the perfect accessory for any work party.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

So, help? Natterers who actually go out into the world and interact with business-y people in business-y ways, what would you wear to a business casual party?

I'd totally wear something that looks like a 1940s suit and pretend I was Rosalind Russell.

Despite predictions for a nasty winters mix tomorrow, I have evidence spring will come. I've witnessed pigeons and doves attempting to mate. Birds sex: harbinger of spring.

I Ubered the hell out of Boston today. Seriously, I hit the sweet spot of not much weekend traffic, snow cut back enough so that streets were more maneuverable, and cold enough weather that everybody wanted a ride.

Well done, Theo.

Well the handyman confirmed at the last minute, so maybe I will get my garage door opener fixed today. And then I will go to the store so I can make rice/chickpea/feta stew, and surf Craigslist for small kitchen tables.

Aha - while I do not have any non-decaf coffee in the house, I DO have chocolate covered espresso beans. That'll do nicely.
