Shoes!

Posted in funky, procrastination, random, shoes | 1 Comment
Yay! In my quest for purple sparkly shoes for my Faery costume (which I found, they just haven’t arrived yet), I stumbled across some lovely polka dotted glitter Chuck Taylors. They don’t go with much, but you know, I’m a bit of a whore when it comes to the glitter. And after the last few weeks at work, I decided I wasn’t going to deny myself this latest bit of frippery. So here they are: Oh, and here’s me sort of working them. Sort of. I’m not fond of the way I photograph, but really, who cares?? It’s not the most flattering of angles, but hey, I’m wearing’em.… Read more

I’ve been a bit lax on weighing myself the last while. I went on WW last year and lost a total of 28 pounds, a few pounds shy of my “goal weight.” I actually felt a little *too* thin there, so I’ve been maintaining anywhere between 127 to 130 and I’ve been pretty happy with that. However, I think I’ve gotten a little lazy – definitely eating more, not paying attention to the scale, convincing myself that ignorance really is bliss. Today I weighed about 131. 131.4, to be exact. Ok, so it’s not even remotely the end of the world. My pants still fit fine, I’m not “feeling fat”, but I have to wonder – is this how it all starts? Sure, it’s an extra pound or two and I can live with that, but what about a few weeks from now, or a few months from now? Will… Read more
