~Should I be a little weirded out by the fact that my boss came in and said, “Can I feel your sweater?”
Now, take into consideration that a) he’s not the brightest light. Too dumb to be intentionally offensive, and b) it is angora. Yah, that’s me today. In a leopard print angora sweater with a matching cardigan. I would have NEVER bought this in a million years, but my Step-Mom is allergic and it was a gift from one of their hipper friends who makes clothes for a living. He doesn’t make crappy clothes either, he and his wife have their own EMPIRE of some kind. I’ve never really figured out exactly what they do, but they’re rich and live part of the time in LA and the other half in Shanghai. Regardless. I’m wearing a leopard print angora sweater “set”, which is pretty unlike me. Perhaps that’s why the boss was compelled to “feel the sweater”, and granted, he didn’t linger. Just rubbed the arm and said, “Ah, that’s nice. I like that.”
Yikes. You weirdo. Get out of my office with your nubby fingers.
And of course, I’m wearing it with a black knit long skirt that it looks like somebody’s CAT has been rolling all over. I should have thought that one through. Angora sheds, apparently.
I’m all about the hand-me-downs, really. I need to buy some damn clothes.
~Work has finally slowed to a dull and reasonable roar. It screwed up my whole Nano experience though, and I’m sad about that. I’ve got to make myself finish this book so I can hurry and make my mad cash, sell the screenplay and have this kick-ass movie made starring the fabulous Matthew McConaughey. Yes, this is my vision. I bet he’ll do it too, ‘cause it’s in his old stompin’ grounds. See - he was born in Uvalde, TX. And have you SEEN the new Stetson ads? Yowza!
It’s almost like he was auditioning for his ROLE OF A LIFETIME without even realizing it!! I can’t wait to make Matt’s dreams come TRUE!! His career is going to EXPLODE after this. And if Matthew doesn’t play the part, I’m scrapping the screen-version entirely. ENTIRELY! And …scene.
~This outfit would work better if I’d worn a rhinestone collar. I should draw whiskers on my face.
~It’s f-ing COLD outside, folks. Cold like a real winter. Cold like somewhere else that is not here. It’s 50 and dropping. There’s a “freeze warning” for this evening. Brrrrrrr. Screw that. I hope we’ve got lots of firewood left. Time to cozy up!
~Don’t heat a lava lamp up on a hot stove.
Seriously. Yikes.
~New lineup for Rock n Roll Camp For Girls benefit show. I’m excited about this. I think it’s gonna be fun. I think Chris and Alarmo are going to be fatigued because they’ll be playing LOTS, but they’re up for it and I’m grateful. Evah so grateful!
Mando Saenz, Tody and the Falcon, Speedy Colt and King Coal.
Sweet!!
