  • Cheapish brown pin-stripe trouser
  • Cheap iron-grey cotton shirt
  • Burgundy tie with teeny little pale blue diamond pattern
  • 'Maths teacher' black leather shoes
  • The watch my wife gave me on our wedding day
  • Look of rumpled forbearance, tending towards mild dyspepsia
  • About 20 surplus pounds, especially about the waist ('waist area', at any rate) and neck

Can anyone beat this.

  • An ancient blue jean (bought when I was a teen)
  • A black top with grey sleeves
  • A pair of black and white sneakers
  • A blue boxer short
  • A pair of black socks
  • A silver ring
  • A concerned expression, due to the fact that I've been asked to produce a 76 page product catalogue in four days
  • On the back of my chair rests an old brown leather jacket with sumptuous red lining

Burgundy shirt (bought about 4 years ago. I think I wore it to the first meat I ever went to)

dark blue tie (100% polyester)

Black trouser (quite nice actually - moleskin)

Black boots with a kind of matt leather finish

Black leather jacket (currently on back of chair)

Expression of shirked responsibility; a kind of unwillingness to accept a deadline for mid-day today.

Frown at the fickle nature of technology; fucking DVD player/amplifier on the blink. Powers up for about a minute and then turns itself off. Advice gratefully recieved.

i made the mistake of logging on and checking mail as soon as i got up this morning (working from home) so currently i am wearing

  • crimson ralph lauren polo dressing gown
  • an expression of barely-suppressed anxiety about everything i need to complete by monday, by friday next week, by monday the week after etc, etc,
  • thatis al

when [if?] i do get dressed though, it will be a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, though the minutiae of this outfit have not been assessed adequately enough to provide a description at this stage. futher information as events warrant.

*Slightly battered skinny blue jeans

*Brown harness style flat "work boots" (under jeans)

*Multi-shade blue and brown leaf pattern knit shirt - having a vaguely Missoni moment but centuries old Oasis

*Apple green deep V neck cotton knit jumper over the top

*A half smile/half raised eyebrow hybrid expression for the benefit of the three people who are intermittently speaking to me whilst I am clearly doing something else

* Glasses, makeup, jewellery etc.

* Slightly hopeful glow around the eyes as I glance at the Sunny! windows. It's going to be a good day isn't it? And a good weekend?


Good morning TMO.

V worn brown trousers, stretched to my ample frame, that cannot be replaced as I refuse to buy a size 14

Chintz-pattern Birkenstocks

A plaster on my big toe joint where I ran over it with the corner of a solid oak shelving unit

Pink long-sleeved t-shirt, accessorised with crumbs of a Pret salmon and egg breakfast baguette

Wide green perforated belt, Primark's finest

Back of chair: green leather jacket

Expression of relief, as I only have to work for one client today, rather than three, all at once, pretending I'm not.

- black pinstripe trouser. Surprisingly good cut and fit, from Topshop
- grey vest top- 9 years old
- very pink v-necked top
- black shoes- £10 from Shoe Express and wondrously comfortable
- pink flower stud earrings
- silver & pink necklace

- expression of falsely efficient smugness: my boss' new online Research Services log-in won't arrive til Monday as he's left it so late, meaning Monday will be spent in a mad panic of last minute nonsense in order to submit a research proposal to the EU. Unfortunately, on Monday I will be in Vienna and he'll have to do it all himself.

Morning hair as yet uncombed, beard in need of a trim, no socks, no pants and for some reason copious amounts of snot running from my nose in what seems to be an unprovoked allergy attack.

Incidentally, the hair wasn't spikey when I left for work, it's just the effect of driving to work with the top down. This probably didn't help the bollock eyes either.

You won't be able to wear kids' clothes once you've had that boob job you know.

Me:

Pinkish/purplish bland shirt
Bland black trousers
Doc Martin slip-on boots
Expression of red-faced rage due to email circulating this morning which criticises an application I developed. Except I didn't develop it at all, it was done about five years ago when standards were completely different and I only took over maintenance support of it a few months ago and haven't touched it since. My boss knows this and sympathised when I mentioned it, but the email has winged its way all over the place already. Damage done.

Any tips for vengeance. Or fashion?

X = zero, a horrific creation
Slightly disturbing like a disabled relation
Sits in an pool filled with mild disease
Sick and black like a puddle of grease

I rub my face with all this stuff and thing
clean my teeth bare a rotten grin
I feel so small in a place at work
Stuck in the middle of a circle jerk

Hey you know what else, that's nothing to do with this thread? I'm having a hard time looking the fit chick nest to me in the eye today - I mean she's fit as fuck and normally I enjoy studying her lovely lovely face and trying to look down her top and stuff, but today she's making me really awkward. I had a dream about her last night, dreamt that she was sitting naked in my bed, with a white duvet clutched around her. She looked sadly up at me and said "I've got a problem with my flow", and we both looked down and the duvet was turning red with menstral blood. I don't want her to think I'm weird in ignoring her, so at some point today I think I might have to take her to one side and explain about the dream, and how that's why I'm being a bit frosty with her.

That was the dream before I went for my 5.30 piss. The sheets/ colleague dream was between 5.30 and 7.00.

My dreams have been obliterated by the tinny fake Europop mp3 ringtones on my mobile phone, temporarily being used as an alarm clock since my batteries died.

Perhaps someone else on here would like to wake up to a faketanned Pole called Lena, vocoding her way through unconnected bits of the English language, mainly involving the word higher.

But I thought I was going to cry.

Brilliant. Almost exactly the same as the kung-fu dude Rex (of Rex Kwan-do fame) wears in Napoleon Dynamite.

Take a look at what I'm wearing, people. You think anybody wants a roundhouse kick to the face while I'm wearing these bad boys? Forget about it!

I dreamt that a friend and I beat Return of the Saint star Ian Ogilvy to death with our bare hands, and then hid the body, then they didn't have the T shirt I wanted at the Super Furry Animals concert we went to after.

But I am ill.

I am currently wearing a tan Silas t-shirt with a design bearing the word Silas in blood-like lettering with lots of arms holding machetes and maces and clubs and things coming out of the top of the writing.

Black Maharishi combat-jean-trouser-things with white stitching detail.

Black Clarks 'Geography teacher' shoes.

A deathly palour (I'm ill remember).

how do you distinguish between different teachers' shoes?

what the hell are maths teacher or geography teacher shoes?

lace-ups? loafers? half-brogues? oxfords? what?

Yesterday I dreamt that I was working as an ink cartridge repair man that operated from home. So I was in bed (naturally in dream world) and under the covers and someone calls up and asks me to fix their printer cartridge, so I'm flirting with them on the phone and all of a sudden they walk into my bedroom/workplace and refuse to leave until they get under the covers. I say 'ok, but just for the night' and about ten minutes later (after an annoyingly frustrating part of the dream that had me trying to fix the broken cartridge endlessley) I get a call from my girlfriend who arranges to meet me at a cafe. When I arrive, my housemate, my brother and the guy who mans the desk in the ICU unit at work are all laughing because I've been a total whore. I woke up in the morning feeling like a right bastard. Fuck you dreams!

i am wearing:

red moomin birkis

black ankle socks

brown primani skirt that all the beads are falling off, leaving a trail of sparkle in my wake like little red riding pikey

black hennes tshirt

bobbly grey half mast cardie that i got from the second hand shop for 2 poun


herbs if you buy your trousers in primani a size 12 is actually a size 14, so you get the increased girth but you are not actually wearing a 14 label. unfortunately primani trousers are not very nice, but its up to you- do you want to wear nice trousers or do you want to be tied to A NUMBER?

No contest! Tied to a number it is.

Tis a curious thing, sizing.

El-cheapo shops (Primani, Hennes) = generous sizes for flabbed-out povs.

Mid-range (Top Shop, Zara) = miniscule cut for the laxative-abusing, heat-reading generation

Top range (Whistles, Margaret Howell) = generous cut for ladies who lunch and want an extra slice of cake.
