World Goth Day
May. 22nd, 2012 11:37 pmSo today was World Goth Day - something only on my radar because of Second Life.
Today was also the day I went from having an office mostly to myself to moving into a suite and sharing with two other secretaries.
A person I support came into our office, after we'd mostly settled in, to ask me about something, and commented on my decor being warm and happy. "I love this!" She pointed at a glass sign on my desk that says live in peace and peace will live within you.
"I know..I totally screwed up World Goth Day."
"..World what?"
"Goth Day! I missed out completely! I'm not even wearing back nail polish."
She looked at my green dress. "You really did get this completely wrong. You're dressed wrong, your plants are alive, your office is all cheerful.."
"I KNOW! Wait, let me try again...Ohhhhhhhhh everything is glooooom and despair..."
She laughed and left.
My coworkers were very. very. quiet. I'm sure they were just stunned by my gothy sensibilities. |0/
