As of today, I am one.
Eat your heart out.

I have never had a sense of style. I like clothes that are comfortable and inexpensive. Dressing up means putting on my black jeans and a sweater instead of my blue jeans and a sweatshirt.
Since I usually work either at my boss’s home or my own, work clothes are not a priority. [...]

Tonight is the end of the season get-together for BD’s field hockey team. In lieu of a banquet, we’re having a potluck dinner at one family’s house. Sounds good to me. I’ll be bringing a chicken tortilla casserole.

With that in mind, I decided to treat myself to new sunglasses. And with my usual sense [...]

UPDATE: Thank you all for your [...]

I installed a new printer last week. It involved crawling on the floor among the dust bunnies under the computer desk and trying to feed cables up through a small hole behind the printer cubbyhole. I asked BD to grab the end of the cable and pull it through to the printer.
“I can’t reach!” she complained.
“Of course [...]
