May. 17th, 2004 10:43 pmi attempted to shop for work clothes today. i started the whole professional-ish thing last august, so i never bothered with buying much summer stuff...
looking for khakis, i ended up with the first pair of trousers that really fit... 40% off, slightly weird but cool, they convert into capris. however, unfortunately, they fall in some odd wedge of spectrum between slate grey and lime green. please remember, my wardrobe was mostly monochrome -- blue -- for years and years. i've just recently been starting to work in wine colors and dark greens and black. oh well, at least customers should quit asking me whether i think their potential scrub sets match...
in other news, i had a fantastic weekend. while i make a decent introvert, enjoy the adventure of adjusting to a new environment, etc., there's nothing quite like walking into a room full of old chums... while i didn't get to see all the cookeville folks i would've liked to, i hadn't talked and laughed so much in a good while.
the new coffee shop in cookevegas is great... spent a couple hours there sunday morning. the k-tron seal of approval is granted...
more breaking news... there is progress on the housing front! i called up lu the other day to see if she could get referral money if we moved into her apartment complex, and it turns out that she wants to get out and move to a house for the sake of her dogs. and is willing to consider roommates! it's almost too perfect -- she works in the same part of town as dave and me, her lease is up half a month after amy deploys... we're looking as fast as we can... i'm not so sure how her two dogs will get along with chelsea the cat... but i'm excited!
oh, and the society of heathens has a webpage now. they're FINALLY making a new batch of t-shirts -- a bunch of the people who got to tntech 2+ years before me had them when i was a youngun, i was horribly jealous, and now, at last i shall be a proud owner of one. hurrah.
