*No Title*

I'm in a really weird mood tonight. I have no idea why. I'm not depressed and I'm not happy...it's best to say I'm somewhere in the middle. I've got a lot on my mind and feel like I have no real outlet to unburden myself.

I went over to BB's today. It was nice to see her and it was fun to hang out, but I'm starting to realize that I still don't feel like I can talk to her. She likes to "fix" things and when I do start to unburden myself, she tries to help by telling me what I should do. I appreciate that (to a certain extent), but honestly I don't want anyone to fix it. I just want someone to listen. *sigh*

I think I'm just in serious need of a vacation. :~S

I did have a good time today & yesterday. After work yesterday I went out with one of my coworkers. E is an accomplished shopper and when I told her I was in desperate need of some dress shoes she told me "Nordstrom Rack!" LOL! So we went to the NR in Downtown Portland yesterday. It's basically all of the high end stuff at discount prices. I've now found my shoe-shopping paradise. Racks of size 11s! I mean, that NEVER happens! :) I found a super cute pair of black flats and a pair of low-heeled brown shoes. So, I'm all set. And one pair was regularly $120 and I got them for $34.90. I spent almost $100 on shoes, but it was worth it. Comfy is always worth it. Yay! *happy dance*

I figured something out today though. I don't think Hi-Def TVs are good for me. BB has one and I came home with a seriously bad headache. I don't get what the big deal is. It's painful and awful unless the screen is 20 feet away. That's just my humble opinion.

We watched Too Wong Foo, one of those movies you watch just because and Stealing Beauty. Talk about an odd movie. Made no sense, but I love Jeremy Irons. His voice is just yummy. :)

And that's it. I'm tired and a bit grumpy. I think I'm going to go to bed and hope to get a good night's sleep. Ciao!

I LOVE getting good deals on shoes. I just love shoes! I usually don't wear all that many different pair but I do love them! lol

So glad to hear that your signing with PB was fun!

I know what you mean about friends who want to fix things. Unfortunately, I think I try to do that.... Listening is a really hard thing to learn to do, but since I have so many things to learn already what is one more :)

And YAH on the shoes! I hate shoe shopping....but then, unless I'm shopping for books I hate ALL shopping....

Ditto on the friends/people who try to fix things. I have a TON of those. Even in places where I'm SUPPOSED to just be able to vent. Some things can't be fixed and are never as simple as the "fixer" assumes.

Kudos on the shoes but...Good gravy I'd have died if I'd spent nearly $100 on shoes...or anything for that matter! LOL I'm such a frugal Franny. I freak out if I spend more than $50 on shoes or clothes. hehehe
