The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I think I would order the faster shipping, just to be on the safe side.

I have always had the free shipping from Zappos the very next day. It's almost terrifying; once I ordered shoes at 8pm and they were on my porch at noon the next day. I was like, "Are there magical shoe GNOMES doing the delivery?"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, I think I've not had free overnight shipping one time, but if you can't risk it, don't risk it, you know?

Yep, couldn't risk it, so I ordered the same boots through Amazon instead--prime shipping, and $5 cheaper. I just hope they fit, since I tend to be between sizes.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I saw this article and thought of Hecubus: [link] At least he hasn't taken it to this extreme... yet.

Not my favorite association, Theo!

That actually happens periodically; every two or three years you'll see that pop up in the news cycle.

I have had it take many many days, for Zappos (granted I ordered the Thursday before Thanksgiving, but I didn't get it until after Thanksgiving). I've also had it on my doorstep the next morning. If you need them I wouldn't risk it. If they might just be a better option than something you have already...

So I bought a blouse today, and I can't decide if it's a color I should wear or not! It's not a color green I usually wear, but I can't tell if it looks terrible! And what if the answer is that it does, but I only learn that when I see my mother in the morning? Argh. I guess it's OK.

Wow, two avocados and a couple of small tomatoes make a lot more guacamole than I figured. It's delicious, but way too much for one human at one sitting (ETA: not that I planned to eat two avocados' worth in one sitting. Just, it's a lot of guacamole, is what). Who knew.

I guess I'll be having it at every meal tomorrow. I can't imagine it keeps for long, right? Guacamole English muffin. Guacamole burger. Hm. It might have to last until Monday.

I am pretty pleased, though. It's the first time I've ever made it for myself! Pretty sure it's the first time I've ever bought an avocado. I only developed a taste for them late in life. And they were on sale, so...

Because books.

So I bought a blouse today

Take a picture and show us?
