Bullet Updates

I just saw a woman wearing black Crocs with her pants suit. It's a shame they don't give us honorary fashion police ticket books, or she'd have gotten one.

I need to teach my clients the concept of "admission against interest." Just because someone has asked for information doesn't mean you have to divulge everything, only what they asked for, narrowly tailored to fit the request. This is not an opportunity to throw on a hair shirt and get out the scourge, folks.

Saw Stardust this weekend. Marvelous film. Will enjoy getting it on DVD once it's out - this was definitely an over-and-over-again type of film for me. And Michelle Pfeiffer was hot as the witch queen.

Rode out to BC's place on Saturday. If that type of commute is going to become a regular thing, which it may, I'll need to get another bike. I rode the tri bike, which meant carrying a bag on my back. Not terribly comfortable for 2 hours. I need a bike with a rack for panniers, and the mountain bike simply is not up to that kind of riding. Maybe in the spring I'll look for a road bike. And figure out where to store a third bicycle.

Getting back into the swing of things, post head cold and pre-races. The swim is still the most nerve-inducing part, but I expect it to go more smoothly than previous races. I'm less anxious about it than I have been in the past, and I think it'll be fine.

I'm glad I gave up the morning paper, I am making it through more in the way of other reading, but the magazine pile hasn't really diminished. I have made it through 1.5 books, though, and the last Harry Potter is sitting out, beckoning.

The inventor of crocs will be the first against the wall when the untelevised revolution comes.

Fashion Faux Pas

That's nothing compared to what I see as an instructor. I swear if I had even a single penny for every fashion faux pas I see in my students, I would not have to work after a few more years. I would be rich.

I'm glad you can't see me because you'd be ticketing me and my thrift store not-so-chic all the time. You'd get nothing else done! :)

I relucently accept commuter shoes with suits or other professional outfits (even though dress shoes can both look good and be comfortable). But I draw the line at wearing Crocs with a suit. That's the worst scrolldown fug I don't want to see.

On a non fashion note, do you need the trail capability of your mountain bike? If you don't, trade it for a Hybrid - I love mine.
