Tonight I’m going to country and western night at the gay bar. LOL I bought a straw cowboy hat at Super Tarjay after work; it’s light brown with a turquoise something or other around it. I bought two t-shirts, I’m not sure what I’m going to wear. I was feeling ironic. One shirt has a grumpy Care Bear; the other is light blue with a faded flag. I bought them in the juniors department so even the XXL is tighter than I’d normally wear … but they both make my boobs look good. (Too bad I’m going to the gay bar.) My compadre has a black hat and black boots to wear; he is also going to wear a black shirt. When I mentioned that may be a tad too Johnny Cash-like, he said, “Oh, I’ll gay it up!” I can’t wait to see what that involves. I offered to throw glitter on him, but he didn’t like that idea.

My replacement at work is losing her fucking mind. Her sister has terminal cancer so I’m trying to cut her some slack, but come on. Today she actually said, “It would have been nice to have known that” about a project, when I e-mailed her about said project six fucking weeks ago. I was like, oh no you di’int. She did call tonight to apologize. I think she may have been crying. Good Lord. I don’t know if you can force someone to take time off, but she’s a train wreck. If she can’t do her work, she needs to take some vacation time and let someone else take over.

I’m waiting for my toenails to dry. Tonight it’s Friar, Friar Pants on Fire. Yay, just like a real pedicure. NOT.
