Hey Conne, I'm in Washington DC now. Did you follow me here as well? If so, please pay me a visit and we could have fun times. (I am at Dulles.)


Turn around. Look for guy in J. Press tweed jacket, Alden lonwings. Blink thrice. You will receive instructions then.

I worked from home full time for about 5 years, and I still try to work from home 1 or 2 days a week. I save projects that require deep concentration for those days, as I find the office environment too distracting to really get deep into a project. On home days, my mornings are usually spent on meetings and emails, then I take the afternoon off and procrastinate until about 9 PM and crank it out from then until 12 or 1 AM.

Works for me.

I'm sick of buying sandwiches with ****** tomatoes. The tomato is so important. I don't want a white and green one.

Dammit Conne, you scared the crap out of people just appearing like that. Also, when you said J. Press tweed jacket and Alden longwings, I assumed there would be garments in between, you know what I'm saying?

I stopped by your house, but you looked busy with various tasks. I am nothing if not considerate, so I chose not to interrupt.

This post makes me hungry for fried green tomatoes. I haven't had any for several years now.

Just good friends that are always over. They know what's up, they're just still in college mode (recent graduates). They stopped drinking my booze after I put them in their place and I don't see this clothing thing being an issue. today was the first time they really just blatantly wore a few of my jackets and sent me pics of them looking smug.
Edit: and yes I basically asked them "when the **** did we turn into 15yr old girls who share clothes?"


my brother used to do this. i got a favorite merino sweater back with holes in it and a pair of highend earphones back with one earphone missing. he would just go through my closet in the morning while i was asleep and leave without asking saying i was sleeping. -_-

What the **** who works until 5? Office hours in HK are until 6:30 with a half-day Saturdays. Thank **** I am not always held to that.


I take off early Fridays. I work all day Sunday because I'm a heathen.

+1. MTM or custom is the only way I have suits that don't look awful on me. Off the rack usually just doesn't work for me.

Yup. A buddy of my roommate came over last night to hang out and both of them tried on my blazer. Mind you, it was made for me, obviously, but it still fit them decent enough for them to get a sense of how it would look and feel if it were truly custom to them.

One of them said he felt so inspired to get a new suit.

It's just such a great feeling.. that feeling you get when you wear a well-fitting jacket. Sadly, most people don't know that feeling.

Where do you get yours from?


Hemrajani Brothers. They operate a website called MyTailor and it was recommended to me by a beloved Forum Member. They have tailors who travel the U.S. and measure customers by appointment, so I set one up for Boston. The guy measured my body, then some shirts and pants that fit me well, and then we chose fabrics. He knew exactly what I wanted in a blazer and he got all the details right (except the fabric, oops).
