It’s been a cold couple of days in Toronto.

Today my boss walks in wearing a big fur coat. Not the plush cozy kind, but the big furry, hairy kind, the kind that you assume lumber jacks or the first settlers of the land would have worn….the coat plus her already bulky frame makes her look a little like a big grizzly bear...

I thought I was alone in my bemusement, when I received the following email from a fellow co-worker:

“Hey watch out, Big Foot’s leaving The Building……”

I laughed so hard I cried….

LOL. You better delete that e-mail.

Fur coats are horrible anyway. I don't think I've ever seen anyone look good in them.

lol, that's hilarious. It's even funnier if they wear the matching Russian hat with the big giant fur coat.

I had a boss one time...we used to do a Bollywood dance everytime she left the building.


P.S.: I've tagged you. Sorry, darling.

I'm all about dressing for the elements but I have a coat I reserve only for the -22 degree days that's grey and shapless and so massive, I look like I should have a brood of children hidden underneath. Kinda like a gray Grimace! I catch my reflection in shop windows sometimes and don't know whether to laugh or cry...I do both, cuz no one bothers a crazy chick who looks to weigh about 700 pounds ;-)

I guess I should add "dead animal wearing" to my list of choice adjectives for all things Canadian. It will nicely right after "mayo chugging." And yes, I know that works on multiple levels.

Hey, I like those coats. I find them to be very masculine.
