Birthday shoes
Somehow, I missed the fact that there is a NoBloShoeMo photo pool on Flickr. It's too late now to join the "30 days of shoes" effort*, but I wanted to show you my new shoes anyway.
I first saw these boots this summer in Missouri, where the fancy-pants shoe store downtown was closing. I tried them on in a fit of goofiness. And I loved them. They were marked down quite a bit but not enough to satisfy my inate sense of cheapness. I went back to the store twice before it closed for good, but I never bought the shoes.
Months passed before I saw them again. I was at a TJ Maxx in North Carolina. And there they were. Cheaper than before. But we were about to move to Holland, and I was in spend-no-money mode, so once again, I bid them adieu.
Again, months passed. And just a few days before the Greatest Day of the Year, we were reunited.
Thanks, Al, for the rock star boots. I love them, and I promise I will wear them somewhere, someday.
*It says "Post daily, or once in a while, or when the shoe whim strikes." So I joined anyway.

says, "ok, three things...
1.) I LOVE LOVE LOVE the rock stare boots!!! 2.) I LOVE LOVE LOVE the hardwood floors and exposed brick walls in your house!!! 3.) I was looking at the picture of Piper in the car and I can not for the life of me figure out how she's strapped in. I don't see a carseat. It looks like the belt comes directly out of the seat in the car. *boggles*" (6:59 AM, November 06, 2006)
