New Shoes! June 17, 2010

Yesterday I had a horrible day.  I decided the only remedy was to buy shoes.  And also I called in sick today and Sadie and I slept until 11 am.

If you are a woman and unfamiliar with GoJane, I highly recommend you go there!  They do have some crazy things that might only come in handy if you decide to take up streetwalking as a side job, but they also have some really cute things.  There are a lot of pretty cute dresses and especially shoes.  And the prices are great.  Here is what I bought:

Snake Dangling Medallion Chain Thong Sandal ($18.90)

Metallic Rhinestone Link T-strap Sandal ($13.70)

Rhinestone Shield Thong Sandal ($20.60)

My total was $53.20 which got me free shipping.  My co-worker ordered this super cute pair of flats and paid only $5 for shipping so that’s not too bad either.  Check out the shoes she got.  They are very similar to a pair of Steve Madden flats that we both have been eyeing for a while but cost $90.

GoJane Suede Ruffle Satin Leopard Flat ($15.00)  vs   Steve Madden Women’s Floralel Ballet Flat ($89.95)

Lazy Sundays June 6, 2010

I have a love/hate affair with Sunday afternoons.  On one hand, Sunday is usually the one day of the week in which I have no plans and no place I have to be.  On the other, it is a reminder that the weekend is almost over and I have a full five day work week ahead of me.

Today I spent time shopping at the local Wal-Mart Supercenter.  I know many people consider Wal-Mart to be either the world’s most evil corporation, or place where you can see the most hoosier-like citizens of this fine country (see People of Wal-Mart).  I personally love it.  While I enjoy shopping at Target more than anything, there is something to be said for a place where you can buy a pint of strawberries, underwear, potting soil and a new set of tires, all in the same shopping trip.

It’s a most lovely day today.  Low 80s, sunny and low humidity.  Extremely rare for this time of year.  I think Sadie and I will go sit on the balcony and read a book.  Well, I’ll read, she’ll just lay on her blanket and sunbathe and ponder life’s dog mysteries.
