this dress is made of a tablecloth and doggie bags

Try not to be too jealous of my ridiculously printed bubble skirt from H&M, bitches. I know you love it. It's GIRLICIOUS.

Most excellent photographs

The George Eastman House has put some of its photographs into the flickr commons, and I've been having a trawl through two sets of them. Here are three I particularly liked.

Prince Hussein Pacha Khedive

What a moustache! What a hat! What a costume! And yet he puts this all together with such insouciance. Now that's style.

Rollin Heber Neal

This chap captures another side to male fashion. Somewhat more louche, and yet still pleasing to the eye. After all, the ladies love a rogue. Withnail, is that you?

A monkey riding a rhino

It's a monkey riding a rhino. If you don't like this then I humbly suggest you need your head examining.

Treat lunch

nobody@vox.com(Snaggletooth) — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 13:01:46 +0100

To Pret for a rare treat lunch. I have (had - burp) a ham and egg sarnie, a cappucino - with not one but two sugars - and a chocolate bar. Added to this are an apple and a pack of Frazzles from home. For the missus a chocolate cake and a hot chocolate. Well, she is eating for two.

The drugs don't work...

And so I am going home. I told my boss. At which point he told me that apparently the company are introducing a new system whereby if we have to go home for any reason, we have to ring a phone number and tell this 3rd party who then log our attendance at work.

This is my first sick day off as far as I can recall since I joined the company 18months ago, so I'm a wee bit peeved, especially given how much time he and my colleagues have had off collectively through illness!

Anyway. I shall be sitting on the sofa, probably with a bowl of porridge. Or soup.

Where does it hurt?

nobody@vox.com(Runnergirl) — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 07:59:59 +0100

Yesterday I forgot to take a hayfever pill. I was fine all day (air con office...) until I got home.

I then developed a painful sore throat, sinus ache and headache.

This morning I have all that and can barely swallow, and ache all over. My glands are swollen, and driving was agony.

I think it's hayfever, but I'm not sure, and I have so much work to get done today.

There's a family connection with this one. I've always liked it, so was a little miffed when another of our NCT crowd bagged it. Not quite sure what's changed but I would no longer feel this was a reason not to choose it, so it's back in the running.
