is it just me, or is the world really out to get me?

last day of term.

true to the frighteningly efficient form the H.R. had been exhibiting throughout the first half of the year, we got this form to be filled in at the most urgent, a generous 10 minutes before pack up. one more form to fill in is indeed my idea of a fun way to spend a few minutes, compared to totally fruitless activities like getting a drink of water or going to the loo. forms, they are something.
this one was extra special. it requested exciting details like the date of birth of one's mom, and sex (where one has to work hard to squash one's desire to write a truthful 'never had' )
hennyway,,trouble is, it required one to fill in one's details IN BLOCH LETTERS and no less. now i have had as substantial a general education as the next person, but i'v never been taught to write in BLOCH letters, much to my shame, so i gave in, and just filled it in in humble block letters.

and the evening held a few more revealing glimpses into my total lack of in-with-it-ness.
this sign for example, in the friendly neighborhood mall which commanded in no uncertain terms - LADIES DRESSES AVAILABLE HEAR!
