Of Umbrella-Induced ‘Um’… November 21, 2008
Posted by Jen in : Journal , 18commentsOh. Hello dear reader. Um… how are you? Where’ve you been? Nowhere? Really? Oh. Me neither.
Gawd. I’ve gawn right off this Winter malarkey. I mean, bring on the snow if you like but all this rain… and darkness. One thing I hadn’t considered when taking a full time job is that I’d be working in the dark. I truly do not like it one little bit. The dark is for dressing gowns, glow-y lamps and a tipple or two. Not stumbling about in the gloom, trying to convince your brain that the day hasn’t actually ended.
Anyway. Excitement. Erm… let me think. On Tuesday, I accidentally went to work dressed in a long, dodgy Victorian-style bustle skirt. This, in itself, might not have been too weird. I think it was the biker jacket on top that made me look slightly deranged. I don’t think anyone noticed. Luckily, today is dress-down Friday – even though we don’t actually have dress-down Friday. Dress-down Friday occurs on any day that finds me clutching longingly at my jeans and woolly socks. Oh dear.
What else? Lovely bf nearly got arrested by the fuzz for something he didn’t know about. Luckily, after looking him up and down, the rozzers immediately ascertained that he could not possibly be any sort of criminal mastermind. I think it’s because of his beard. Facial furniture is the way to go when deflecting attention from criminal mastermindery. Top tip there. You can what you pay for on this blog, I tell you.
Um… no, sorry. I’m afraid that was the combined contents of both my brain and week.
As you were.
