New Leather Pumps

Nothin' like a pair of new leather pumps to make a gal feel, well, ballsy! And of course, I got 'em on sale, at over $20 off, keeping at my budget. I had to search awhile for them, weeding through all the low-rent "man made material" pumps b/c for me and others of discerning good taste, only real leather pumps will do. The ones I finally decided on are sexy peep-toe, a kind of shoe I've never gotten for work before but that's ok since I do keep up with my home-done pedicures, and the heels are a little higher than I normally prefer for work (3") but so what. A little change never hurt anyone! I also wanted to buy the same pair in navy blue but they didn't have my size (9--yes I've got big feet) so I might go grab them this weekend at another store since they're on sale and everything. Ok, is this too long a post to devote to shoes already? You can read more about last night's shopping experience from a financial/quality of life viewpoint over on my Personal Finance blog.

Didn't see S last night since he went to the Weird Al concert w/his friend from work and they rode together. I was busy anyway, doing 2 loads of laundry, taking out the trash, and doing a bunch of other stuff around the house. Later he texted me that his friend wanted to go to a bar (God, I can't wait for him to quit working at Harley and around that kind of element) so he was just going to crash at said friend's house. I heard from him this a.m. but we didn't get to discuss the concert b/c he told me the Academy guy was actually going to meet up with him today to discuss these assembler positions. I thought that whole scenario sounded off, so I just told S I wanted all the details on this before we decide to take this job or not!

The other task I had to take care of last night was to watch this strange movie called Waking Up in Reno. It seemed to have potential but it was not very good. But Billy Bob is always fun to watch! Now S can return it at Blockbuster and get whatever next flick he wants.
