Doin' That Columbus Day Drag

Monday was a federal holiday.  I work in a federal facility and the building was, effectively, closed.  Government employees were off.  To me, that mostly means the escalators are not running, no-one is cleaning the restrooms every ten minutes, and, alas, there is no coffee available for blood nor money.

I went in, mostly because it's quiet and I can get a lot of work done without meetings, e-mails, etc.  I can just focus, which is where I like to be.

Normally, I wear "office casual."  I eschew ties, and I wear sneakers pretty much daily.  There's no

real dress code and there are generally three types of people at meetings: women, men with ties, and me.

I took advantage of no customers or government overlords on Columbus Day and went "all girl."  I wore women's denim jeans and denim shirt.  I had my usual women's undies and socks.  Girl bracelet and choker necklace (which I sometimes wear to work or out anyway), and the women's rings I normally wear.

But the shirt covers a multitude of sin so I wore my bra and a strappy camisole underneath.  But I thought I'd go for a little extra.

I have access to "chicken cutlets," silicon push-up pads that add a little extra.

I wore the cutlets.  I mean, why not?

I think, for the most part, they didn't show at all, but I also swapped out my usual tote for my crossbody bag and when I wore it properly it kind of emphasised my little extra.

It was a nice feeling to be a bit more femme at work than normal.  it was a nice feeling I may repeat.

At the very least I will come Veteran's Day.

Sunday Funnies ~ This 'N' That

 A little eclectic mix this week.  I went through my recent cartoons and picked off the ones that made me laugh the loudest.  I hope they work for you too!  (Clicking to enlarge makes them funnier)

I post far too few Dilberts here, compared to how often I LOL

I can always relate to Rob Harrell's "Adam:"

There will be more Arlo & Janis

Yeah....  Creighton Barrel?  (From One Big Happy)

A first: Zack Hill in the blog!

Just Funny

I don't post enough Dilbert.  Scott Adams is a master at putting two laughs in four panels.  Here's an example from the end of last year.

How do you know when you're done?  In the 21st century, it's probably when whatever you were doing on your cell phone is done.

Oh, what the heck.  Here's some more Dilbert:

Where You Least Expect It

Dilbert, of all places!  The first is his Halloween cartoon; the other was just kind of random but needed to be downloaded and shared.
