Friday Brain Dump…

Friday Brain Dump...

Since I am supposed to be working, I think I will blog instead! What a FABULOUS idea!

  • Someone near me has some music on. I imagine that it is some great classical music of some sort, but all I can hear is the higher notes and it sounds like that creepy music you hear during Halloween that is supposed to scare you but really just makes you want to laugh.
  • There is a woman in my office with Bright Blue shoes on. The rest of her outfit is blue as well, so I am thinking that somewhere in there is this shade of blue. But it is not the dominant color of her outfit (which is a nice navy blue) so she shouldn't be wearing these shoes. Plus, they look to be about 15 years old. I remember when my mom owned shoes just like it. Really, if my mom can let go of that style, I think everyone should.
  • Earlier this week I was drinking Tully's coffee from a Starbucks cup. You would think that whom ever delivered the Tully's coffee would have delivered Tully's cups.
  • I was in an executive meeting today, executive meaning top tier of management in the company. One woman showed up 30 minutes late. Okay. Then she had coffee delivered to her (by a not so happy person.) She then proceeded to get her purse from under the table and start sorting through all the coupons that she had stuffed in her purse. It was very interesting behavior.
  • My boss has worn the same shoes all week. I noticed them Monday because I thought they were cute. I noticed them Tuesday because I noticed her shoes Monday and wanted to check out what she would be wearing the next day. I think she is a pretty snazzy dresser so thought I would compare her style to what I actually own and see what I can do... I noticed the same shoes on Wednesday because I thought to myself "she wouldn't wear them three days in a row would she?" She did. I made a bet with myself yesterday that she would be wearing them. I won the bet. Then I thought "wouldn't it be funny if she just wore them all week?" Yeah. She did. My advice? Get more shoes! Even if they are your absolute favorite and the most comfortable shoes you have ever owned, that is no reason to wear them every day for an entire week.
  • I didn't dress the best today and was concerned about the executive meeting I had today. I'm in no way dressed to impress. At least I'm not wearing jeans, but I did wear these sandals. I like them, but they don't "dress up" the outfit at all. If anything they dress it down. I shouldn't have worried. People showed up in varying degrees of casualness. Admittedly the men looked better than the women. But there was one woman who was wearing something very close to stretch pants coupled with an over-sized shirt. I didn't feel so out of place in my cords & polo, sandals or no.

I think that's about enough. smile Have a good weekend!
