Clogging my way through a Friday
May 13th, 2005 04:35 pmClogs. I own a nice pair of brown ones that I hardly ever wear. I can't wear them when I ride the bike. I didn't like wearing them when I worked at the agency on the second floor & had to climb stairs. They don't go with all my clothes, so I hardly wear them. I wore them today with blue jeans.
I wore blue jeans, which is normally what I wear on Fridays, however, today we went to visit a client. I was told the dress was casual. Every time I have been faced with this sort of thing since coming to work at AKA, I wrestle with the "casual" thing & wear something better than jeans only to discover that everyone else is in jeans. Today, of course, since I wrestled & choose blue jeans, I was the only one. Not only that, the client we visited had clients visiting as well, so they were all in ties & such. Yuck. Normally I am not one to get too upset that my dress is out of sync with everyone, but it bothered me today.
The upshot of the client visit was that I was hardly in the office all day! Woohoo!
Tomorrow is the last day of spring turkey season here in VA & I am hoping to feel up for it at 0-dark-thirty when the ex asks me if I want to go. Chances of me actually getting a bird are pretty slim, but it is nice to be out in the woods. This will be the last hunting until whitetail season comes in this fall.
I hope the ex & I can get through the weekend without fighting & being mean to each other. We have had a few testy days this week that have left me missing my days of being single. Sometimes it's tough to believe that one man can make me so angry & happy all in the span of 24 hours! I dunno about the whole Mars & Venus thing... but I am pretty sure men are aliens! haha
Chance meeting?
Yesterday's drive home was a bit interesting in that I came upon a jack-knifed logging truck blocking the way. The truck that stopped behind me contained a lady & her poodle. She commented on my license plate (BWITCHD) & asked if I was into Wicca. I let her know that I am a pagan & by her grin I knew she was as well. Merry Meet! After checking on the logging truck situation, we exchanged contact info & I am hoping that we can connect. Things happen for a reason. I really need to get back to some spirituality with other folks... I am surprised that no one has been by to claim my Witch's Union card.
