I just want to let you know

that I'm thinking about doing a new blog post. It will probably happen very soon. I'm thinking it will be Sunday. I'm at my parents' house this weekend and therefore without photos. And, let's be honest--what's a blog post without photos anyway? So, I will be home Sunday and try to post then. I do have a very silly and cute video of Maizey and Jack to share. And, I have very cute new boots to talk about. I know most people don't share new boots news, but since I'm a student and we're now on one income new boots are hard to come by. Not anymore since I just got my first student loan! What what!?! Time to shop! The big Nordstrom half-yearly sale is just around the corner and I just got their MOD card! Woohoo!*

*I'm really just saying this to piss off my far-away hubby. Who, btw, won't be home until December 1stish. Poo. But, actually, Ryan, if you're reading this. I did get a MOD card, but it's not what you think. It's good. Trust me. My poor frugal husband with his crazy, clothes obsessed, irresponsible wife. He's just lucky I wear Danskos. Not fashion forward, but sturdy, reliable clogs that will probably last the rest of my life. They just don't look good with leggings (at all even sort of, a few unfortunate souls have tried and failed miserably) which is why we have the boots. Oh, and, I re-discovered Abercrombie. I braved the cologne and loud music and half-naked models and found cute jeans. Unfortunately it was just in time to find out they reported major losses this quarter and will probably go bu-bye. Maybe if they didn't systematically alienate the people with money (adults) from their stores they wouldn't be in this position. Maybe if they didn't need a crane to get jeans above a size 6 more people would want to shop there. Even if there clothes are over-priced and usually quite worn-in/a-transient-had-this-before-me looking, they're actually pretty cute.

And, I'm done. This non-post turned out to pretty much be a post. But, don't worry, a real post is around the corner. And I won't make you feel uncomfortable by bringing up my finances in the next one. I promise.

Here's my boot for you to admire--and if you don't, well then you aren't fashion forward and I will just put up pics of my Dansko clogs for you to look at. If you don't admire those, that's where I stop. I won't be putting up photos of Easy Spirits--ever...

Those are cute. Where did you get them?

Nice boots Lana! Although I love the Danskos too...they need to make boots again b/c it's been a few years since I got mine. I just ordered some mary janes from Piperlime but shipped them to BD's house to save $6 in sales tax. How sad is that? And I won't get the pleasure of having them delivered to my office, which is always so exciting.

You should tell everyone the truth...

I am such a blog-stalker, but I found your blog on Nichole's and we actually HAVE met, so it could totally be worse.

That said, I totally agree on the Abercrombie thing. Nothing is more aggravating to me than asking the size 2 salesgirl (or size 2 salesboy, as the case may be) to please climb on their little ladder and hand me down the "fat" jeans. And the cologne. It's like stepping back into 3rd period biology.
