My New Philosophy

i am pretty much much wiped out as a human being right now. i'm so hurt and torn apart that i just have nothing left. and i'm trying to put one foot in front of the other - baby steps for right now - so i can start the healing process. so my new philosophy is this: once i get to a place where i don't have to literally wade through two feet of snow in order to get to my car, i plan to wear ridiculous shoes whenever i go out somewhere. to lunch, to run errands (as long as i won't be on my feet for hours), whatever. because ridiculous shoes make me happy. and if i'm wearing ridiculous shoes, it's impossible to be absolutely completely miserable. and if i'm not completely miserable, then there's still hope right? so that's my new therapy plan, to put one fabulously shoed* foot in front of the other until i find myself in a better place. to that end, i welcomed three new pairs into the fold, courtesy of dsw's sales and my tax return.

and of course, there are all the shoes i already own that fit the required parameters....

and of course these. (well, not the first ones so much, but the others all qualify.) and these...

and THAT'S my new philosophy!

*yes, i know the correct term is "shod," but i just don't think it sounds as good as "shoed."
