Valentine's Day was 4W5UM, which is saying a bit since I don't really go in for Valentine's Day. The lolmom and I went to the Tin Fish (nom nom nom), and then shopping; she'd promised me a Good Bsns Wardrobe for a while, which was an exercise in entertainment, given that I believe dress codes are for simps and if I'm not supposed to have green hair ( Read more... )

culinary adventures, yay, mindless acquisition, ainsley, v-day, connie

OMG, so WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE MULTITUDE OF BOYFRIENDS?

XD seriously though, I'm curious, and you've left me hanging.

I don't believe in shoes, only sandals, and those are never workplace appropriate, so I sympathize. Also, shoe shopping is somehow so very very tedious and awkward to me for some reason. I dunno.

Fail comment is fail.

WE DON'T KNOW YET! When last we spoke (on Sunday or thereabouts), she had made her selection, but was uncertain as to how to brush the losers off. I suggested a form letter: "Dear Applicant, We regret to inform you that we have selected another candidate for the position of Boyfriend whose qualifications and experience more closely match our needs &c&c&c&c.". Dude, I'm going to have to see how this turns out on Fri. If I happen to catch her tomorrow (I have to go in to collect my paycheck), I'll buttonhole her and demand some answers. XD

I like shoes (and sandals too), but shoe shopping suxx0rz. I think this is because my feet are both flat and wide, thus the polar opposite of what Dame Fashion dictates.

4W5UM Price is 4W5UM. ♥

I'm glad I'm not the only person who finds business clothes to be stifling. I like to be comfortable at work, so I can make customers and other coworkers comfortable ('cause if I'm not happy in my own skin, I think everybody knows it by the end of the day). But at least you have a p0w4h suit that you like, right?

Vegetarian meals are ♥. Mmmm. Your journal so often makes me hungry.

I also got a new pair of khakis that fit properly, which is really nice, especially since I would wear them for other purposes. ^_^ Unfortunately, I find Srs Bsns Wear to be somewhat...bland. Some asshole decided sparkles and bright colors were Not Appropriate For The Workplace. Bitch plz.

Mine is a bondage p0w4h suit. Speaking of, omae wa ore no mono da! *tosses you over her shoulder*

Vegetarian meals are very much of the nom, and I've been cunningly turning the lolmom onto them. (When X-chan was a teenager, she was a vegetarian and chose to inflict really, really weird meals on us. The kind that had such delicious ingredients as spirulina and wheat germ. Yecch.)

Come to Indiana! I will feed you!

After practically living in khakis for the last few years, thanks to working retail, I have very little tolerance left for them. I'd almost rather wear black dress pants at this point, but for some reason, those are out of dress code at the Ko now. -_- Srs bsns wear is bland. Guys at least get to wear funky ties; what do we get? Nothing.

Iya! Dame da! **struggles pointlessly**

You know, I don't even know what spirulina is, but it sounds...funky. I'm up for anything vegetarian, as long as it doesn't involve mushrooms, which I deeply loathe and which my dad and grandma both seem to think are amazing. Since my dad's vegan now and has been for a year or so, he puts mushrooms in everything. It's very off-putting, but I still love vegan and vegetarian foods. I only wish I could convince Mom and Todd that vegetarian != flavorless lump of over-steamed broccoli.

I would so love to take you up on that. My stomach is starting to wish it had the money for a plane ticket. ^^6

I like khakis, but only the comfy kind that actually also look good on me, as opposed to the kind that squeeze one's flab or give one a moderate to severe muffin top. Also, black dress pants are A-OK. Also also, at least we have the consolation of earrings.

Resistance is futile! (My kibbles and bits of Japanese don't extend this far. Sorry.)

Spirulina!: The Musical. I like mushrooms myself, but they are an acquired taste (I was in college before I would eat them) and they are not everyone's thing. I haven't had a lot of vegan food that tastes good, but I'm willing to be corrupted. :D

Flavorless lump of oversteamed broccoli = HELLO AND WELCOME TO THE MIDWEST, unfortunately. >(

For you, I would create dishes such as the world has never seen. ♥^____^♥
