I guess the article really shook me to my core, as today I am sure to be fired over wardrobe choices. I'm wearing nude fishnets, 40s-style t-straps, a (fake) Burberry plaid tulip skirt and fitted black mock turtleneck, with a vintage 40s white full slip on top, and a black grosgrain ribbon in my hair.

I dont think I slept a minute last night with non-stop dreaming and a neighbor's dog barking most of the early morning. I dreamt that my mom and I went to a tanning salon where I had a screaming match with one of the workers. Later, a group of us evaluated my parents' home (the one I grew up in) for places where a robber might enter, then went to a Wizards game with a friend and her uncle. I know you are freaking about the tanning salon bit, but rest-assured that it was for the application of a spray-on tan. No tanning beds allowed, even in dreams.
