Hokay. I may have found shoes that (a) I like and (b) will match the dress. They look a bit like this:
Cut for an image of ONE SEXY SHOE )

Only with more of a slingback, and less of a platform. Yes, they are hella high. Yes, they will put me at well over 6' tall (I'm not that worried, as the MOH is as tall as I am, and she also loves super-high crazyheels). They are also the only gold-ish shoes I have found that don't look like they belong traipsing around a retirement community. I also found them at Marshall's, so the price is most definitely reasonable. I may check out a few other places, but I'm thinking these are The Shoes.

I also finished my case study last night! A full DAY ahead of schedule. Woot! So today I'm going to work on actually TYPING OUT my research paper. Hopefully I can get a couple of pages under my belt before the weekend.

And... that's pretty much it for now. I haven't been doing much writing lately, given the schoolwork, so I'm also hoping that getting a head start on my paper will let me write a bit over the weekend.

All right, so because I'm stupid, I decided to walk the dogs (against my better judgment).  It's now an hour later, I feel like death warmed over with a side of stomach cramps.

However!  LET ME TELL YOU WHAT HAPPENED ON MY WALK.

First, to set the scene.  I am clad in fairly sloppy workout clothes -- a faded sport tank top and a pair of my oldest, most comfortable stretchy yoga/capri pant type... pants.  I have two dogs on-leash.  Am trying to get them to relieve themselves before we are on said walk and nowhere near a garbage can (I am a responsible pet owner who carries her own doggy clean-up bags, yes).  The dogs are walking in circles around me, and I'm basically trying not to get sick as I watch them.  Sydney does her thing.  I clean it up.

When a car pulls up and parks!  Window rolls down and I assume the driver is lost and asking for directions.  Driver says something that I cannot hear.  I ask him to repeat himself.  Still cannot hear.  Get a little closer.  STILL CANNOT HEAR.  Then he holds up a piece of paper and I finally hear "Can I give you my phone number?"

...

...

...

Wait, what?

I'm picking up dog poop, and in the meantime trying not to get sick on my shoes, and this makes someone want to hit on me?  What?

So, uh.  Some people might know that my baaaaaaaaaaaaby cousin is getting married in October.  (Okay, so she's not really a baaaaaby. She's six years younger than I am.  BUT SHE WILL ALWAYS BE MY BABY COUSIN, so there.)

Anyway, I'm in the bridal party!  And the bridal party were given a number of dress styles to pick from, in a specific color ("Harvest Gold").  I chose a really pretty strapless A-line dress.  I had my measurements taken at a dress shop down here, and sent those measurements to my cousin, who ordered the dress from her shop.  

The dress arrived today!  Huzzah!  It's pretty!  Double huzzah!

It. Fell off.

It.  The dress.  It.  It's.  It's too big.  Like, "I must have lost two inches in three months" too big.  

WTF.



wordinista: (Sexeh Bunneh!)
So, I got my new glasses today.  I have an uncle who's an optometrist, and he sends me oodles of disposable lenses, and sometimes, when I'm a verreh verreh good bunneh, I get new glasses.

They feel a bit weird, but I think that's only because I'm more used to contacts, and the glasses I did wear were rimless, and had a different nose piece.  These are... well, they're sexeh-librarian glasses, IMO.  And things look... different.  The world outside the frame is SO BLURRY OMG.

Here they are -- and that color is called "striped cherry"! -- I'm just thankful that getting the red frames wasn't a mistake. I was afraid I'd end up looking like Sally Jessy Raphael! XD! But, no -- they're very nice, and I'm a fan.

If y'all are good, there may even be pictures! XD  (I also colored my hair today, so I'm feelin' extra sexeh!)
