My brain is a weird, weird place

( Because not everyone cares about what goes on in my head, yet I feel the urge to share )

Monday is International Talk like a Pirate Day!!

And we're dressing up at work. There are posters saying so! At first I was all doubtful to hide my glee and then they showed me photos from last Halloween -- there were wigs and black clothes and broomsticks and jack-o-lanterns. And now it's dressing up as a pirate day. I'm getting paid to dress up as a pirate!

I'm thinking pirate-y, but also can-pass-as-not for getting to and from work. Black heeled boots (not because they're particularly pirate-y, but there's a sexiness factor that must be respected), black pants, black lace-up (alas, not very loose)shirt and a-la ascetic_hedony, sash options must be investigated. I don't think I have a proper red one, but I shall search. My clothes drawers are large and rarely fully dug through. Also, a gold hoop earring. Excited? me?
