Most people don’t like to work on holidays, but I wish I could work only on holidays. I went in to the office on Monday because I’m taking a whole week off later this month and I have lots to do to clear off my desk. Plus I’m an overachiever.

Anyway, it was lovely. I could wear whatever I wanted (which ended up being this comfy t-shirt dress), there was no traffic, no line at Starbucks. And best of all: the office was so quiet. The only person I saw all day was the security guard. Bill is a delight and he doesn’t ask me when I’m going to have anything done. Bill can stay.

But you know what they say about all work and no play, so to celebrate my laboring on Labor Day, I went for a walk along the canal and had a gourmet veggie burger and wine on a patio. It was a great way to finish out a weekend of rainmaking…but without any actual rain, which was a nice bonus.

I can’t decide if I want to be that girl who follows the weather and the official season and sticks with “summer” style for the next couple weeks, or if I want to be that girl who immediately switches into fall mode just because it’s after Labor Day. So I’m going to be both. And you’re going to support me wholeheartedly as always. (Right?) Yesterday it was all of the bright colors and florals, and today it’s solid black and burgundy. Tomorrow – who knows? Maybe a fur vest. OK, no, it’s not going to be a fur vest, because that’s still in a tub in my basement. The point is: you love my unpredictable nature, and you can’t wait to see my next move.
