Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

I'm wearing olive shoes right now!

But ok, the default is black. I challenge myself to not wear black shoes.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

The trick to non-black shoes is to convince yourself that all natural colors of cow are neutral. I have successfully added several shades of brown to my shoe closet this way, and then I moved on to "you can wear blue shoes when you're wearing a blue shirt," and other subtleties.

Slips are good. I believe in slips. Aside from the whole "one more layer between your x-ray vision and my butt" factor, there is the part where they are generally narrow, and thus much less likely to fly up around my ears when the wind is blowing.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm wearing blue sandals right now. Mostly because they're the only footware I own that doesn't rub against the itchy, sore welt left by the wasp sting I picked up last Friday.

But hey, they don't not go with the red (and blue, and black, and gold) gauzy skirt I'm wearing (with a long slip).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

In completely other news: Hey, Maria (or anyone else with upcoming nuptials) -- you like Pez?

White doesn't do much for my complexion. My favorite drinks are brown and involve caffeine. I'm a clutze.

Calli is me. My kid looks great in white. I, however, do not.

Ivory I can do. But I don't, on account of the brown drinks thing.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I love shoes so it should come as no surprise that I have them in just about every color. Pink, blue, purple, red (because I'm a whore), white, off white, green and of course black and brown. I need some silver though. Silver strappy heels.

Black shoes, pink gitch!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

you like Pez?

That terrified me even before I saw the price.

My problem with the non-black shoes was mostly the hosiery, which wouldn't be a problem with non-black sandals, I admit. But it always made me nuts to wear navy shoes with a different color navy socks and aNOTHER color navy pants. BAH.
