Girls don't like boys, girl like cars and money
Boys will laugh at girls when they're not funny

I'm wearing a black top and a linen skirt. I'd recommend you wear black suit pants, collared shirt, and a tie. Jacket is probably not necessary (unless you're cold). And also, I really like green. (I just had a lengthy conversation on how I could tell you to wear green without sounding like I'm telling you what to wear. So if I still sounded bitchy it wasn't on purpose. Please wear green.)

sigh.  I'm a little bit at a loss for what to wear.  black suit pants, black shoes, fine... I'm not sure I can pull off green.  I have a black peacoat (aka a friend of mine has a black peacoat), so maybe I *can* do green.  I'm going to hit up Express and see what I can do.  And, now that I've thought about it; I'll bring more than one choice just to be safe.

Girl: Does that make sense to you?
Roommate: No. Does he mean he can't look good in green?
Girl: I'm not sure. That would be dumb.
Roommate: Yeah, because everyone looks good in green.
Girl: I know! That's the beauty of green!
Roommate: Also, peacoat? With black pants?
Girl: Yeah, we're definitely going to say no to that.

I just spent 20 minutes in Express for Men, and it turns out that I suck at matching shirt + tie.  Now, mind you, the gay man was very helpful, but I didn't know the exact... shade of green I was matching, and as I watched he kind of mentally wrote me off as hopeless.

Please don't wear a peacoat with black pants. Peacoat with jeans in the only okay peacoat-combo.

I'm okay with wearing jeans to the wedding. Should I not be???

I must say, I don't agree with the peacoat rule of which you speak. Granted, it works better if one were charcoal, but I think it's still acceptable. Just my two cents. Perhaps they should count as more, however, since I was the one to introduce you to Go Fug. Just a thought. :O)

1. What is a peacoat?

2. Friday Question : How do you manage to keep a straight face for photos of you and Heather in the funniest poses and acts?

I usually keep a straight face by thinking of someone who annoys me. Is that what you do, Abs?

I thought "peacoat" was spelled "peecoat" and it has nothing to do with the color. Am I being a mom here?

and and and...

I just clicked on Shepherd's name and it made me very happy. Thanks for that man.
