Fun Friday!

OMG, I haven't done this in so long! I have been too busy with house stuff.

Ok, here goes.

Actually, first I will share some of my most recent additions to my ever-expanding shoe collection:



The ones I got were more of a pewter color, rather than these bronze ones pictured here. I already wear them constantly.



I got the gold ones to go with a red dress I have. My earrings match perfectly.



I wore my old boots to death, so these are replacements. (Rawr!)

On to the links...

This one was actually recommended to me by the authors. They emailed me about their blog, called How Not to Be Dreadful. I love it! The best part is, they take questions you submit to them. If they like it, they will answer it. I have no idea how they found me. But I'm glad they did.

This one is courtesy of Stephanie at Pickleness. The first time I went here, I almost had a hernia I was laughing so hard. I completely ruined my eye makeup because of the tears running down my face. So check it out: Engrish.

My coworker sent me a link to this next one. It's sort of a myspace for readers--you can leave reviews, show others what you have read and see what other people are reading. I think it's free. So why not check it out?. Shelfari. I think I will. I bet you can put a link on your blog to your "shelf" of book reviews....cool.

You guys probably know all about these already. I am usually behind the trend tide!

This weekend I am hanging out with MJ and her houseguests. Tonight, we hit the bars to show her NY friends around town. Tomorrow is her housewarming par-tay/cookout. MJ and KT say that their NY guy pals are pretty cute. That is why I am planning on seducing them with homemade cookies at the cookout. Lol.

Then Sunday I am going out with Cop 2. He said he's surprising me. Woo-hoo! He said something about miniature golf...we will see. Sounds good to me!

Speaking of Cop 2, how about he offered to help me paint my bedroom and bathroom? Yeah. We were on the phone last night and I was telling him about how I am going to go buy some paint this weekend. He offered to help and then said, "Yeah, I will see if I can take some time off from work to help you. I have tons of vacation days anyway." Very sweet. Who does that??

This, of course, means that something is probably wrong with him...

I have saved the biggest news for last: Lady Starfish is coming for a visit next week!!! She got a new job and has to do some training here in Columbia for a few days. So I get to be Hostess VB and show her around and introduce her to everyone. Which is very exciting, as some of my friends doubt her existance. You see, she has not visited me in a long, long time. And now I have so many new friends and great restaurants to show her. Plus, she gets to meet Sammy and see my house. Can't wait!

Ok, I have to go update by sidebar now...have a great weekend!!!!

Wow, what stylin' shoes!!! I'm jealous..haven't bought a pair of new shoes in over a year. Ever since I bought my apartment, my ass has been BROKE! No more money for new clothes...

Have a lovely weekend! Now I know where all of the cute NYC guys went for the weekend! I knew something was missing on the streets of Manhattan.

Great links! I'm going to check out that Shelfari one. Also, I don't know how you walk in those things! So jealous.

Good luck on your date. Cop 2 sounds really into you. I mean really really. It's wonderful.

Awesome boots! I seriously need new shoes- it's been 2 years since I've bought any really.

Yes, engrish is absolutely hilarious! Thanks for the linkage!

This completely makes me want to buy shoes now. Damn you! Damn you! I think I'll go on my lunch break today...

Follow the Frog said...

And, I mean "damn you" in the friendliest way possible! ;) My bank account won't be happy about my upcoming shoe purchase...
