There's something not right about Zappos. I consider them highly suspect, what with the free returns and the omnipresent shipping upgrades. Ominously cheery customer support doesn't surprise me in the least.

Is diabetes associated with limited bloodflow to the extremities, especially the feet? Is that why they don't want to put IVs in the feet of diabetics?

I can't believe the Slap Chop ad with the annoying Sham Wow guy just said "We're going to make America skinny again, one slap at a time."

I have had a big old girlcrush on Salma for ages and ages, but Salma as a mom is pushing me straight into pure mindless squee and helpless hand-flaily delighted geebling.

Re Scarlett: the hair looks a wee bit dark, but overall she looks awesome and that dress is amazing. I don't even want to know what the Fug Girls are saying about it.

In other news, my daughter? Still cute.

I think Scarlett's looking stunning in that picture.

Zappos is one of the top places in the country to work, so they may have cause to be cheery.

My daughter is pushing my buttons big time today. If she's this defiant at 3, when she's 13, I'm totallly fucked.

I know! I was halfway waiting for her to accuse me of abusing their goodwill.

But no, she placed an order for me, upgraded my shipping, and told me to go ahead with the return process for the shoes that don't fit.

Maybe she's getting it all out of her system now?

I know, I know, not very likely. But it's all I've got.

I feel like I should know this, and I'm not sure if that's actually it. Untreated diabetes can lead to toes, etc., needing to be amputated, I know that. A quick look tells me it's diabetic neuropathy, which is nerve damage. That can happen with the eyes, too.

This might help me sleep at night for now. It's something to hold onto.

They liked the dress (which I also thought was a good use of animal print), but thought the makeup was Evan Rachel Wood during the Marilyn Manson period. I think it's more ERW now, which is a tad heavy for ERW, but less so for Scarlett. It's totally not the goth look they claim.

Cute daughter, JZ!

Four is better, Cash. I promise.

They always ask me that before they put in an IV, and my foot is still hurting from what I think is an IV from three or so weeks ago. I'm disturbed.
