about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote

  • "I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps. And I believe that our education like, such as South Africa, and, the Iraq, everywhere like such as. And I believe that they should, our education over here in the U.S. should help the U.S., or should help South Africa, and should help the Iraq and the Asian countries, so we will be able to build up our future for our children." --Caitlin Upton, Miss South Carolina Teen 2007

Confessions of a Clothes Shoe Horse

March 30, 2006

Because I don’t work outside the home, I don’t have need of a lot of clothes. I pick up a few things here and there as needed when the seasons change, but really, I don’t go crazy anymore. I usually get a really bad itch to shop in the fall, and an even worse one in the spring though. This spring has been no exception, but it seems to be hitting me twice as hard. The problem? The new wedge sandals that are so popular this year. I can’t seem to get enough of them! At first, I justified my purchases on our May trip to Florida. I needed some nicer clothes than what I usually wear around here. So there was this one skirt, and shoes to match, then another skirt, and shoes to match, and those cute capri pants, and shoes to match, and those few tops, and shoes… You get the idea. I’m starting to have doubts that all my shoes will fit in my suitcase.

It’s the wedges. There are the gold ones (for my sister’s wedding), the tortoiseshell ones, the white ones, the ones with that wrap and tie around my leg, and the beaded ones. I had to stop myself from buying another casual pair yesterday. (Though I did get a pair of stylish round toe flats and some slides instead. Eeep!) All these shoes, and I still haven’t included a comfortable pair for our three day trek around Disney World.

I just realized, I have all these shoes, but no shorts! How dumb is that?

    May I suggest breaking in a pair of shoes BEFORE you tote two “almost” 8 year old boys around Disney World? Maybe where them around the house to see if there are any problems with blisters. But I wouldn’t want to cut into your “sitting on your ass time”. B-Zilla

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
