itsy bitsy part un

§ Not to be such a dork about it, but am excited to get a new notebook for the new job. But… I already feel a bit guilty because I have several unfinished ones lying around, and now isn’t the time to be spending on frivolous things… still, it would be nice to have a neat new little one, especially since I’m such a note-taking nerd. Plus, am thinking of a new set of colored pens and Post-Its, oh joy. Then…

Here’s a pretty little thing I absolutely had to have because I had an unfortunate Mentos moment (ok, I snapped my heel off.) Good thing I was already in a mall, but I really had to make the purchase as cheap as possible since it was an unexpected buy (yeah, right, anything to get to buy shoes.) Scouring around for about an hour in Landmark, I found these neat little babies… I call these my Alice in Wonderland shoes; literally little- it’s so hard to find my shoe size- pieces of just-right blue patent heaven. I love them so much, I wanted it right by my bedside. You can’t believe how inexpensive these were, so although I was disappointed with my broken heel (a more expensive brand, by the way, and the pair hasn’t been worn that much,) getting this new blue pair made for a very happy pop of color in my day. I didn’t understand the stereotype of women’s obsessions with shoes, up until about three years ago. Hard to believe, but I was quite okay with having a few. Not that having a lot is ok, too- that’s another obsession and I believe in moderation. I just can’t believe I used to be that same person. Hmm…psychoanalysis by shoes. Friends who come over notice that my shoeboxes lined up are taller than I am , and I always reason out that hey, I’m not tall, so its not a lot…and then as I’m writing this, I am thinking of that pale turquoise wedge that I left behind…hay, soon little one, I just might come back for you.
The blue shoes, as mentioned, are from Landmark, a Korean brand to be found somewhere at the front area of the shoe department. Go be shoe-hounds!
