Having no Internets sucks

I do not like having no Internets ("There is a fault on your local network. We will investigate it on the first of July. We have complicated protocols for you using your mobile instead in the meantime, but no Internets for you"). Having no Internets makes me unhappy.

The entirity of Cambridge not stocking a white long-sleeved blouse or a plain black skirt also makes me unhappy.

The email I got after all the shops had closed, saying '3/4 length sleeves are okay', did not make me particularly happy either.

In conclusion, I hate the world and want to eat some food, but suspect the place I want to eat food from of being closed now.

I did the 'long sleeved white blouse' hunt today. After going everywhere, Gap scored.

I passed loads of white long sleeved blouses in M&S today as school uniform - they must have hidden them during graduation.

My standard advice 'set their faces on fire' dosn't apply here

I have a spare long sleeved white shirt. It's a size 16 'curvy' (Bravissimo) though so it might be a little large on you, but you are welcome to borrow it, I don't really need two.

Hey, noticed you'd friended me and I was probably overdue to friend you back.

Sounds like you had a dress code to worry about. I have problems with those too - mainly the ambiguous ones like "smart casual" (being neither smart nor casual) or "summer suits" (which appears to prescribe shirt, jacket and tie in temperatures of 28 degrees and above). Darn society.
