The pretty, the nerdy and the ugly

flexagonI'm definitely doing my best to weird people out today--this is a pretty casual office, and today I'm wearing a black tango dress with a ragged handkerchief edge that flutters all over the place, and heels, and yes, pearls. It's fun to see who asks me what's going on and who just gives me an odd look. What's up, of course, is that tonight is the last tango class and I thought it'd be fun to dress up for it.
Also good: Coraline is finally out in paperback as of today, and it's on its way to me. Here's hoping it arrives before I leave for NJ next Wednesday. I really wanted to buy The Phoenix Exultant for the trip since it would have been a long enough read for sure and I just read its prequel, but noooooooo, it's not coming out in paperback until September. *snivel* *life is no fair*
Work is still evil... here's hoping I can take this weekend off, or (since I'm supposed to be loading all our stuff onto a laptop) at the very least maybe I can work from home instead of schlepping my tired self in here.
Regarding a couple of days ago: what, no replies to my bachelor(/-ette) party rant? I definitely thought we had some pro-bachelor-party types online. I was curious what they would say as they sprang to the parties' defense.

Re: Why the secrecy?
Date: 2003-08-05 08:39 pm (UTC)By the way, bc, I fully believe that each and every man on earth except possibly HLM and (most of) my friends' husbands is in fact a raging out-of-control cheater under the skin. Just can't summon up the faith to believe in them on more than a case-by-case basis. :b Even so, I think I can count about five good ones, so there's probably a sixth out there somewhere. And if I knew who he was, I'd give him your phone# in a heartbeat. {hug}
