Long lunch!

We may elect to extend our lunchbreak to an hour, and I've gotten into the habit of doing so on Fridays. I wandered over to You-Know-Where...because Goodwill gets good stuff all the time, and it's been four whole days since I was there last.

I nobly resisted the call of a white, 80's jacket that was begging me to pimp it. I put back the suede moccasins and the Brevard Zoo baseball cap.

However, the leopard-print velour Mary Janes with three-inch foam platform heels are mine, all mine, bay-bee! I saw them on the shelf, and went, "Whoa, cool." Picked them up to look at the size out of morbid curiousity, saw that they were 11s and could hardly get my sneaks off fast enough to try them on. Oh, yes! I am going to rock those puppies like crazy!

I figured out why they got sent to Goodwill in the first place---the left sole (sole in this case being a pad of textured rubber that covers the bottom of the foam platforms) was lifting up around the edge. I brought them home and broke out the household cement...it's currently resting with a binder clip squeezing the two glued surfaces together.

Now I just have to create the rest of the outfit.

And get pix for you-all....
