I had to drive down to Charleston and back for a hearing today, so cut me some slack on not having any content up.
By the way, I spilled coffee on my tie right before the hearing, so I couldn't wear it. It was a catastrophic coffee incident on a light colored tie. Take my word for it - it was unwearable.
Anyway, first thing, the Judge asked why I wasn't wearing a tie. I apologized profusely and told the story of what happened. I also made a joke about my considering making an emergency tie purchase at Ben Silver. The Judge in a very good nurtured way commented that I probably wasn't making enough money on this particular case to justify an expensive Ben Silver tie - so no harm done.
Still, I felt very naked in Court without a necktie. I may start carrying an emergency tie in my briefcase.
As for today, I've sneaked a blog post in under the wire before 5:00PM. Luckily, I don't need a tie for blogging.
Enjoy your weekend. And don't get anything on your tie!
Cops carry back-up guns, no reason suit wearers shouldn't have back-up shirts and ties.
ReplyDeleteToo bad you can't do tap-rack-bang with a tie.
DeleteI keep an extra set of pants, shirt, tie and socks in the trunk just in case. I am not saying they will be pressed or presentable, but better safe than sorry.
