yes, I'd love some cheese with my whine.

Okay, Karma. I get it. This is just my week. Big things have gone wrong, little things have gone wrong, and I'm swinging between a decent mood about the whole mess to feeling like crap (THAT I blame on hormones, at least), and it's only Wednesday. I don’t know what I’ve done recently to deserve this, or if I’m just going to get amazing luck in the

Wow. I'm sorry.

I have been alternating the same two pairs of nice pants for ages. I keep poking holes in the pockets and mending them and then making more holes. In the summer when I still had my office job I usually alternated between the same two skirts, too.

Awww, thanks, babe. It's just one of Those Weeks where Murphy's Law has run rampant and I just need to roll with the punches. Thankfully, at least my mood has improved, even if I'm still busy as hell.

Yeah, it's tricky. I have a couple work-appropriate pairs of pants that I wear, but they don't work for Real Events, when I'm wearing a blazer. So I have a couple everyday work pants, and then the two Real Trousers.

In the summer, if I could wear my cute dresses and skirts, I'd be well-attired all season long. Unfortunately, they have the temperature in my office set LOWER than they have the heat in the winter, so I'm usually wearing a couple layers, even in August!! Oy vey. XD

Also: HIOMG. I've been catching up and read a few of your posts, and I hope everything is just AWESOME. ♥

Aw, that sucks. About Murphy smacking you and about the air conditioning, though I guess that's not the greatest of your concerns right now. (You walk to work, right? I used to bring cardigans to the office with me because I had to walk outside a fair bit, and ride trains, to get to the superchilled office. But the AC was a good excuse to keep drinking hot tea in the summer. Not that I apparently need one, having had hot tea every morning in freakin' Malaysia, where I was all of 3 degrees north of the equator. I'm as bad as the British colonialists.)

Things are mostly good! I'm kinda lying around and not-catching-up-in-my-journal and overdosing on Internet and trying to beat the weird sore throat I picked up somewhere and waiting to be put to work again. But in any case, I had a good trip, and I really will post about it!

Yep, I've got a fleece I keep in the office (they actually had them made for all of us, for things like Homecoming and Alumni Weekend, but I wear mine year round!). The hard part is when it's REALLY warm out, compared to the office. Who knows, maybe this is the year I start wearing a skirt/dress and bringing pants and a sweater! Oy.

Mmm, tea. I'm with you; in the summer I prefer it cold, but I love tea, any time, any place, any temperature. :D

Lying around sounds amazing! Yes, yes, posts with pictures and info and all that. Gotta keep us updated. :D ♥

Wow. That's a lot of arse.

LOLOL, yep. Thanks for reading, bb. It's mostly me bitching (and hell, repeating some of the stuff from Tuesday's post), but it's good to get it Out There. My mood is better, and it's Thursday, and I can make it through. Chin up, etc etc. :D
