"Oh My Stars and Garters!"

~~ Hank McCoy, a.k.a The Beast, X-Men

SIGHTINGS!!!!

The past 24 hours were mind boggling with sightings!!  I must preface by saying that I spoke to the universe yesterday afternoon and I think this was the response.  Clearly I don't have your powers Buffy.  I was looking for Glamazon.  Instead I got....

Sighting 1: I'm driving to my folks home at around 6pm.  Pull up at a random stop light, just look over to the car next to me and who should I see but....DIMAN!!!!  That's right! I know he lives near my neighbourhood but since he left the organization I haven't seen him.  Granted I haven't been commuting on my usual route either.  Low and behold there he is driving a mid 2000's silver import!  And we hold the wheel the same way.  I guess he really is my male counterpart.

Sighting 2:  Strolling in around 9:05, minding my own business. Decide to take the elevators this morning and waiting in the seats adjacent to said elevator and in front of the automatic doors..... Degrassi and her side kick!!!!!!  I pretended not to see them and desperately kept jamming the elevator button.  I was on my turf but I was alone!!!! No wing man to watch my flank!  It looked like they were waiting for a delivery of someone or something!!


Day is not even over yet!!!  What more could happen???
BTW....we need a nick name for Degrassi's side kick.  I'm thinking....English Rose?  Teatime? HRH? Jermajesty?

"On the road again, I can't wait to get on the road again..."

song title: On the Road Again by Willie Nelson

Appropriate post title on at least two levels.  Firstly, Buffy is off traversing the mid-country this week.
Second...I'm recently returned to the grind and wishing I had won the lottery last month so I could be on the road again!  **sigh** No rest for the weary.

I hope you've escaped the humidity today B!  Even I'm complaining. Not about the heat mind you...but the smell.  One office smells like a green house.  Not great but tolerable.  One common room smells like a washroom. Ick!  And one section of a hallway smells like all the zoo enclosures put together -- dank, musty and poopy!  GAG!

In my only wandering session for the day I ran into a walking nightmare.  Buffy...I'm so glad we have each other.  You'd never, EVER let me perpetrate the following crimes (especially not in one outfit like this lady).
First let's be clear -- me commenting on people's weight is like the pot calling the kettle black.  I'm not criticizing, merely making a point. Some sizes should not be attempting some silhouettes.
This lady was simply plump -- kind of apple shaped. Wearing a white, widestrap, lace front tank with a sheer back. She had the decency to layer another white tank underneath.  So it's clinging and outlining all of her landscaping in the midsection.  Unflattering.  Her tan stretchy pants were too short and she had chunky heel black booties showing underneath.  I've tried the "boots under the too short pants" trick before.  It don't work. I scurried past trying to hide my "O" face...i was just shocked.  That's what one week of vacation will do to a person...I've become sensitized to these atrocities again.  Time to troll the websites to work up my tolerance level again.  Let's see what Kardi is up to these days.
"O" Face


UPDATE:
Gah!  Kardi! Those boots!! MY EYES!!!!  And they come in black too!!! Ridiculous!
