shoes

Do you have any idea how many pictures of shoes I have on my flickr? No. Neither do I as I didn't see an easy way to count them.
But here! You can watch a slide show of them! Not that I imagine you will.

I read, this morning about proxys (proxies? proxy services, yes, that's it) who will, for a fee, purchase goods for you in other countries and ship them. I'm not sure I can afford things from Japan, for example, and, elsewhere I have Paola, Eurolush, Kim, Alice, oh, and for a few more days my dear friend W (don't make me link, please - we all know these ladies).
You remember my dear friend W, don't you? He gave up everything in Tuvalu for a woman he'd fallen for in Paris (cue dreamy music and then make that record-scratching noise as you tear the needle across the vinyl). Yes, well. It didn't go well and he's living in an unoccupied flat with no heat in snowy, cold, dreadful Paris and we are very much looking forward to having him at our Saturday dinner table SOON.

I think I am done Christmas shopping. Wait, I'm wrong. Does Oldest reallyreallyreally want a Star Wars replica blaster or a new snowboarding jacket? He's torn. I'm leaning toward outerwear. So! Done!

Oh! I nearly forgot. Alice, that little minx, introduced me to Pinterest and I have been sucked in! I don't even know how many Pinterest pinners there are but I do know that I had to wait a week to receive an invitation and as soon as I started pinning (which is a wonderful thing to do as every pretty thing you SEE can be put in ONE PLACE) people started repinning my things and I'm sure it's all supposed to be a grand social media whirl but I haven't read about it...weeeeeeeeeeeee! Anywho, it's a lovely place to waste an hour looking at lovely things. Am I running out of adjectives?

Food shopping and the Apple store. I'll have an iPhone for Christmas, please.
