Semi formal. Different websites say different things.
If you are interested in meeting women, I would go with the sports jacket. If you are in a relationship I would go with the slacks and dress shirt. Just as there are some men who really like women in dresses there are some women who really like men dressed more formally. Also if you are a bit portly or older, a sport coat can hide a lot of flaws in man's appearance. Just make sure it fits well.

I have to dress nice for work, so the slacks and dress shirt I've got covered already. I've been coupled up with same woman since jesus was working with wood so I ain't out chasing tail. I am a fat middle aged dude so the sportsjacket does help in that department.

Darn right. Time to bring back some style. Nothing wrong with looking sharp.

You’re killing me, Smalls.

I used that line the other day when asking some questions.

Eh, I say dress shirt/dress pants, unless you’re very comfortable in the jacket...I get warm quickly, I’m projecting. You wear what you will enjoy the experience in.

These are words to live by. I think I just had an epiphany. Either that, or indigestion. Maybe I should stop drinking mountain dew for breakfast.

I have to channel my inner street youth every now and then. It's boring sometimes being middle age white guy.

Awkwardness. I am sitting in a quiet office, and I have some dry skin on my lip and I was sucking my lip into my mouth and fiddling with it with my teeth like, and I made a strange, loud, mouth sound. Now I'm intensely self conscious in a weird way. I banged my coffee cup on my desk like that somehow made it better? It sounded nothing like that.

*sigh*

We have snow here and my drive to work sucked. Saturday it was 70 degrees and sunny, and I saw a small group of children at a park, who had salvaged what snow they could find from shady spots under trees, and were building a snowman in the middle of the park in their shorts and t-shirts. Then yesterday, it was in the 20's and overcast and spitting occasional snow, and my next door neighbor was grilling burgers on his patio in a winter coat. The weather forecasts keep being wildly off in terms of when snow will start and how much there will be. Freaking Colorado. No one knows what is going on.

8 degrees here this morning. I put on long johns and wool socks. It’s too early for this bull by-product.
