i realized a couple months ago that i really should blog because, i think i might be pitifully funny... i think when people tell the truth you cant help but laugh and next to shoe shopping (and shopping in general) i enjoy laughing.
so i have figured myself out i am a whiny complaining lazy bum... the only time i even half-way wake up is when i see the word "clearance" i told myself a week ago that i wasn't gonna shop anymore, kind of as an experiment, six days later i couldn't take it any more and i cheated.... i figured if it wasn't shoes it didn't count so i have taken to buying hair extentions... THEY WERE ON CLEARANCE!!! so i have always wanted to try out these jessica simpson/ken paves hair extentions but they run $100 + and that is simply not a bargain.... untill they were 60% off and then i had to break my non-shopping streak... but why stop there, i had already broken it so i continued hitting up evey clearance on the way back to my counter at work. i couldnt do it! i felt so low like i can't control myself ( not low enough to return anything because they were all killer deals) the only thing i really accomplished was not buying shoes for a week, anyone with a little self restraint could have done that (any one with the gluttonous amount of shoes that i own shouldnt even be able to wear-out this many in a lifetime!)..... and now i am complaining..... every second i dont have a headache i want to be shopping.... thats 25% of the time which doesn't sound like that much but when you consider that i am either laying around 75% of the time with a migraine or shopping that doesnt leave time for cleaning, groceryshopping(the only shopping i detest) cooking (love to eat, hate to cook) and lets not forget i have two children who are either watching enchanted(overand over), making themselves cereal or are quickly becoming mini-shopaholics themselves.... there is no hope for me... i think im gonna go sit in my shoe closet for a minute to collect my thoughts...

Hi Selina, it's Janene. I just stumbled onto your blog after I read the comment you made on Lauren's. I get my grandma fix a few times a day looking at the computer! I think shoe lovers are born that way. When Alison was little she would crawl up to women in church and pull off their shoes and try them on. We always check out Nordstrom's shoes and when we are in Target we have to look at shoes every time we shop even if we aren't shopping for shoes. We used to call her Little Imelda after Imelda Marcos. If you haven't heard of her, her husband was the President of the Philippines and after he got thrown out of office they found thousands of pairs of shoes that she owned. She was like a modern day Marie Antoinette Great to catch up. Take care.

It's Janene again. Obviously I don't know how to post a comment. It kept asking me to type in those funny little letters. Sorry.
