WANT!!!!!!!!!
Posted by Lissa on November 14, 2008
I’m heading down to Florida this evening for an early Thanksgiving; I’m very fortunate that I can have two this year! Of course, the first Thanksgiving will consist of grilled steak, rather than turkey, but whoever complained about steak? (Especially when one gets a turkey on Thanksgiving Day with the other set of parents.) Consequently, I darted off to Faneuil Hall to buy some Godiva truffles to bring Mike’s parents . . . and that’s where I encountered The Shoe Temptress.
The Shoe Temptress is, of course, a cunning little minx who shares my pocketbook. She loooooooooves pretty shoes, and sexy shoes, and butt-kicking shoes; I restrain her as best I can but sometimes tis a losing battle. Like, say, any time I wander into DSW. And, damn, did these catch her eye:
Shoe Temptress: WANT!!!!!!
Lissa: No! Bad Temptress!
Shoe Temptress: WANT!!!!!!
Lissa: No! They’re too expensive!
Shoe Temptress: They’re eighty dollars cheaper than they were originally listed! WANT!!!!!!
Lissa: No! You have many pairs of boots!
Shoe Temptress: But these are Crocs! That makes them practical! And comfortable! WANT!!!!!!
Lissa: RUN AWAY!!!!
And I did.
But if anyone wants to get me an expensive Christmas present, I wear a size 8.
