Shoes: A Documentary

One of the hardest things for me to do is throw out cute shoes. However, this particular pair was especially difficult due to their superior cuteness. They looked like gladiator sandals and matched with just about any outfit I could conjure up. But their short time in my life had to come to an end due to their superior crappiness. The left heel had to be glued on repeatedly, and the right front would peel off every time I tripped over nothing. I took the liberty of documenting this sad event in my life in order to share it with my friends (and in search for some sympathy).
I was trying really hard to look sad. If you look closely, you can see tears forming under my eyes. Yeah, I'm that good at fake crying...come to think of it, I'm really good at real crying as well.
Now take a moment to feast your eyes on how lovely these sandals are. They are a great color and were actually somewhat comfy for walking in. I spent a day at Marine World with them, so they've done their fair share of walking. The sandal on the right is scuffed at the top. If you peeled it back, you could see lots of glue remains from my many times gluing it back together.
Just in case you feel the need to go retrieve them for me, this is the dump you'd head to. Thanks guys, you're such great friends for sifting through pounds of trash to find the shoes I regrettably threw out!

These are not my shoes, but since we're on the subject, I'd say these are comatose. My friend's dog feasted on these one drunken night. Obviously, you can't glue that back together. However, these are at the Reno dump. Go fetch...

Ooh, that ARE cute sandals. But if they're done, they're done. ...More closet space to fill in with NEW cute sandals, eh?

ps. Has Jaime explained to you my obsession and deep almost-inappropriate love for Target? I very much approve of the picture that shows you had been very recently shopping there.

I also have a deep love for Target. My sister and I went there today and spent a lot of $$ on stuff for her new apartment she is moving into this weekend. It was glorious...
