super school

some jackass wants to ban "athletic shoes" from my workplace. i think i know who it is – real uptight sort. knickers went berserk about it, i'm glad, she's the sort to make a fuss in protest to something ridicules like that. i can understand banning flip-flops, i've on occasion worn flip-flops to work, but most of the time it was by accident. i asked her what the problem is, and she said "well this isn't club-med it's a business". but even STILL i find it completely ludicrous. i don't understand the reason behind "business attire". she said to me "you were wearing athletic shoes yesterday", well i suppose i was if you consider shoes with laces athletic footware. now i'm going to be all self-conscience that people will be secretly judging my clothing. i resent that. they should mind their own business.

ironically, i'd JUST been thinking about my work-clothes this morning. i bought some really comfy and classy pants on sale at old navy the other day, and i wore them to work today. actually, i like them so much that i wore them all day. this brought me to the conclude that i need to buy more work-clothes that i really like so that i feel comfortable at work. SEE... BEING COMFORTABLE IS IMPORTANT. therefore, i'm setting a (loose) goal to buy a new work outfit a month. then slowly i'll develop a work wardrobe that i enjoy. i'm a real bargain hunter when i comes to work clothes. well, i'm a bargain shopper in general, but ESPECIALLY when it comes to my work-clothes.

i started on hatch the other day, and it's progressing very nicely. i am ever so pleased.

i've been working on this photo of a monorail at work yesterday and today. it looks amazing. i wish i could show it to you, but i'd probably get slapped for posting it online because it's property of BBD. basically it was this really shoddy picture that needed to be touched up to be presentable, we WERE going to get a 3-D rendering done but that would have cost $20,000, so instead i'm re-working this photo. frank was so impressed with the end-result that he LITERARY patted me on the back. i'm a good little protégé :)

tie me up tightly by your side,
so i may go with you where ever you reside.
