I think most of these could be threads! It's not like there haven't been threads that are any worse than that. Or maybe I just like to discuss the vagaries of cold medication too much.

I saw a Robin this morning outside my bedroom window and then got all happy but later heard on NPR that they are not a sign of spring, they are actually around all year if the ground isn't too hard.

My job may possibly be killing me.

Casual Day - It is pretty cool, non?

― Sarah McLusky (coco), Friday, 21 February 2003 14:29 (twenty-two years ago)

Casual day sucks the big one. Every other day I just get up take a suit out of the wardrobe, put top on underneath and I'm set. Casual days involve *thinking* before 8am and I was not made for such things.

I really do enjoy wearing skirts but for some reason wearing jeans to work makes everything seem a whole lot easier and relieves a bit of preasure. I'm wearing my baby blue converses today too. Nobody has said anything about that, so I guess it's ok. Plus, they make me really happy.

Saved by the Bell: C or D?

― oops (Oops), Friday, 21 February 2003 17:50 (twenty-two years ago)

You drive a hard bargain McLusky!

Fair enough, once I get to the office I'm happier. I'm wearing jeans today and I have to agree that I feel a lot more comfortable at my desk. And will feel a lot less like a twat in the pub later.

Especially since Dan could turn it into a "secrets of teabagging" thread.

Sadly, no.

That went without saying, I thought.

― Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 21 February 2003 18:48 (twenty-two years ago)
