I got an email from my local PBS station about their counter-Super Bowl broadcasting. Which includes an Audrey Hepburn biopic and some historical 19th century drama that isn't Jane Austen but might as well be. I was amused.

I had to use my jacket to get the Ting open. Sweater wasn't thick enough.

I wonder if casual Friday encompasses cargo pants. It must. There are people wearing t-shirts and running shoes.

Not that I have cargo pants. Or that I even look good in them. But I may have a craving coming on.

I wore the big jeans today. Big jeans are big. ita is adjusting jeans incessantly.

Jeez, I wear cargo pants for my normal business attire. But I work in post-production, where the bar is set VERY low.

Can you wear jeans every day? I'm trying to work out if they're equivalently casual.

DAMN pet food is expensive

The stuff we get Mona is 20 bucks a bag and lasts about a month, because she's pretty small. But then we mix in wet food that's a couple of bucks a can.

if it were up to me, I'd just buy her some cheap pedigree crap from the grocery store, but Kristen has decided on this food after months of research and perhaps experiments with bunson burners and a lab coat. I just go with it.

I would say they're generally equivalently casual, although jeans could be dressed up more for non-work purposes.

Yup. I'm one of the office people, so I would probably not wear jeans and a T,since I am THE MAN. The actual caption editors wear pretty much any kind of thing, heavy on the jeans and t shirts with sayings on them and ratty vintage cardigans. Plus a lot of flip flops.

I apologize, but there will never be a better time for me to be in a snowpocalypse! No car, no commute, no responsibility for shoveling, best-ever supermarket two blocks away!

Gives Jesse the stinkeye

Re pumpernickel bagels, I don't like them if they have the whole caraway seeds in them (both because they get caught in my teeth, and they are too strong in that form), but when they don't I LOOOOOOVE them.

Re best pizza - I call foul that the original Pizzeria Regina wasn't on the list of Boston entries. Though I do note that Picco in Boston got to round 3, so I'll need to check that out. I'm also flabbergasted that Frank Pepe's got beat in the first round, though since it was by the eventual northeast winner, there may be mitigating circumstances.

Awwwww, puppies! I think "Garbanzo" is a perfect name for a puppy.

I think I have a better work ethic at home than in the office....
