Can I get a pregnancy exception to that, since my feet are too swollen to wear any other kind of sandals?

Pregnant women get a pass for pretty much everything.

As does Vortex, but, you know..... Vortex.

"HooHah Relief for Bladder Infections"

I would so buy this.

vw, GO YOU!!! Can I borrow your productivity and motivation for the next few days? I have a stack of poetry explications to finish, and I've been utterly incapable of working on them this week.

I love wedges. I'm wearing wedges right now, AIFG!

Coffee:

If you're not at the beach?

PUT SOME REAL SHOES ON.

Sean, I think that you have just relinquished your SoCal citizenship.

I have an unholy love for flip flops. But that's probably because I would go barefoot everywhere if I could, and flip flops are as close as I can manage.

I'm all mememe today, but y'all will appreciate the crazy.

Me: Our friendship isn't going to be the same as when we were living together. Things change. Doesn't mean we're not friends. Just means we're not living in each others' pockets anymore. Not!Ex: Don't see why we can't live in each other's pocket even though we're a hundred or so miles away.

I... just.... what? I don't even know how to respond to that.

Kind of capri palazzo pants.

Two! Two! Two Fashion Horrors in ONE!!!!! t /Ron Popiel

Also, I love wedges.

But hey - it's not unusual for me to be in the minority on stuff like this. I'm my own majority! Whoot!

Unsurprisingly I am in Aimee's majority/minority on wedges, gauchos and bubble skirts. Also in thinking her "friend" is one of those we good southern girls would just say "that's niiiiice" at all day long.

Went to see the final Big Gay Pirate Movie last night. I loved it. At one point, fairly early on, Mr. Jane looked at me and said, "You're in heaven right now aren't you." Then we went and listened to people sing karaoke at the hole in the wall up the street.

In "I love my family" news: Mom called last night while my phone was off and asked me to call her back. She said she'd have her cell phone on- which is something she never does. I called her back this morning a little freaked, cause you know, both grandparents died this year, so I'm wondering what's next.

Turns out she just wanted to tell me she got to see some of my dad's side of the family at the crawfish festival. My aunt, an uncle and my cousin were at the Mudbug madness race to watch my cousins boys run. Awesomely, Luke and Logan came in first and second in their age group (they're about 10 or 11), and 11th and 12th overall.

I love that dad's side still loves to hang out with mom.

I... just.... what? I don't even know how to respond to that.

May I suggest: "BACK OFF, needy creepy clingy guy!"

Not!Ex: Don't see why we can't live in each other's pocket even though we're a hundred or so miles away.

BECAUSE WE BROKE UP.

Sean, I think that you have just relinquished your SoCal citizenship.

HA! They can have my citizenship card when they pry it from my warm, sunbaked hand. And I will STILL rail against the ghastly fashions one sees around here sometimes!

Hey, buddy, I LOVE my flip-flops. Thou shalt not disparage my happy SoCal feet!
