don't tell my husband I posted...

Ssssh! He thinks I'm studying.

I've been taking a course online, and it's been going gangbusters - except that most of the tests seem to be for People Of Very Little Brain (Really? One of the exam questions was on the proper attire for an office. How hard can it be to remember to wear a bra?) and I thought I was through the dumb 'let's learn how to study bs', I did, but tonight I had to listen to an audio file that not only had a redneck ax'in and fixin' and golly-gee-ing all over the place to SLAM HOME the point that GRAMMAR IS GOOD, accents are BAD.....

it also featured the music that plays on the Peanuts specials when CHARLIE BROWN IS WALKING AROUND TOWN.

If I end up wearing a yellow argyle sweater and NO PANTS to the office, I swan - I'll know who I'll be fixin' to blame!


Must get back to 'studying'........

And HEE! to Loth. If I forgot my over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder I'd black both my eyes and bruise my knees!!

Surely you know how I feel about bras as instruments of torture. Thankfully, my boss is very relaxed about dress code, since I work on the phone.

I'm pretty sure that wearing pants is part of proper office attire, but then, I haven't taken the course.

I can't imagine not wearing a bra to work. I thought that was just a given. You wear one and that's it. cute post!
