Anyway, today we found out that one of the mega-high mucketys was c0ming in to the office tomorrow, and The World's Most Sinister Girl, who also happens to be one of my supervisors (She's the female version of that cadaverous cat from "The Office," except she's Armenian (I wonder how many Armenian people have the same names as one of the alien races on Star Trek-I've already met-and partied with-an Andorian...) Well, I'm digressifiying, so anyway, she starts this orgy of micro-management, and at one point she's c0mmanding all the women in the office to wear hose to work tomorrow, and then starts on me, telling me to wear a suit jacket to work. Now, I work in a pretty heavy duty pressurized, action-packed (not to mention idiocy-packed,) atmosphere. This is c0mpounded by the fact that the dame I mentioned above is LITERALLY cold-blooded, which means that, lacking a full-time guard on the thermostat, the place is kept at Jurassic Park-style temperatures. I haven't had my sleeves rolled down for the past three years. Anyway, this torturous set-up culminates in the following anti-climax: Klink (as I am wont to call her,) tells me to wear a jacket tomorrow, and I reply (to the amusement of the nearby,) "You've got a better chance of seeing me in pantyhose, sister." Then I turned to the imaginary camera, and smiled...-D (In: Black DKNYs) >>>P.S. Not on topic, but hey, it's something to read: I've been getting back into manga lately (thanks to "Love Hina,") and I've just found my favorite series, which oddly enough has naught whatsoever to do with dancewear. It's called "Iron Wok Jan," and it details the saga of a great (okay, superhuman,) chinese chef. You learn a lot about how a japanese restaurant works, which I found surprisingly fascinating (just bought my own wok last weekend-seasoning the thing is a beeyotch.) There's hyperbolic moments galore, my favorite being when Jan declares "Zho Sauce" to be "The greatest invention of the century." I mean, fuck space travel, right? Answers to this message:
