Sunrise on the Weekend

Looking forward to my 2 days of solace. Anyone have any ideas on what to buy a boy for a birthday? I work in NON-PROFIT--so that Breitling I was thinking of just got struck from the list. *Sob*. I'm SO clueless on such matters...

This is really goofy and I feel like a prize fool, but...I think I'm going to audition for the 'short' Top Model tomorrow in NYC! Terrified, I must admit, and feeling like the rejection may be too much for me to bear, but hey, I'm not doing anything else tomorrow, and it COULD be a lot of fun! Or...I could have my feelings dashed against the rocks of reality. Wish me luck!


“With each sunrise, we start anew”

Have you ever really seen a gorgeous perfect sunrise in all it's glory? Especially over water? I grew up on a farm and seeing the sun come up every morning over the hills used to bring me such tremors of hope and joy; it's an almost inexplicable feeling, watching the sun rise and set, knowing it's out of your control and being so inspired by it that you try your very best to face the day with an open heart, a fresh mind, and a sense of tranquil courage that nothing can dampen. Get up early, stay up late; just take a look at a sunrise whenever you get a chance. It could change your whole outlook!

Know where to find the sunrise and sunset times and note how the sky looks at those times, at least once.

F*&^ My Life...

Today, I found out that I am 14 weeks pregnant. The father of the baby is now engaged to my best friend, whom he was cheating on me with when I became pregnant. I'm going to be the maid of honor, 8 months pregnant with his child, at their wedding. FML

Today, I came home early from work to surprise my son with a new mountain bike for his birthday. To keep it a surprise I carried it quietly up to his bedroom. As I opened the door I heard my son say "Oh man, you're gonna make me cum" to the nice girl he was on top of. He just turned 14. FML

Still obsessing

Still in awe of the shoes...

Although they're pretty cool, I'm thinking of investing in some Doc's instead. These, while awesome are novelty shoes, and while I love me some novelty, I feel like I'd only be able to do them in Spring...maybe early summer before it gets too hot and I break out actual sandals. And of course if I change my mind, there's always good ol' google on my side to fix it. The amazingness of the interwebs.

New Treasure

FINALLY UPDATES!!

So...while shopping while I shouldn't have, I came across these lovely babies on clearance and a size too big. Who am I to turn down beautiful shoes, however, regardless of size? I don't discriminate if I don't have to. And while I'm nearly a hundred bucks in the hole, I'm still seriously debating keeping these shoes...Any thoughts?

Went a little crazy with the photos tonight, but means I'll probably be updating more regularly in future. Found a photog! And HELLO to my first follower! Please forgive my negligence. Real life has been trying to kick my butt left, right, and center.



















Oh Deer's Smith Shoe. Mmmmm. Reminds me quite a bit of a Ming vase. They were rather pricey at DSW, but I'd never seen anything like them before. I never really liked the whole open-toed boot trend...but these were just show stoppers. Grabbed them for fear some other soul would get them. But now, economic crisis and my own poverty considered...aaaargghhh; pressure!

Please offer words of wisdom! I can't help myself! How did you all enjoy fashion week?
