2005-10-27, 04:19 PM — i keep typing "hells"
Oh, the vagaries of high-heeled shoes. I've started wearing them to work, thanks to the fact that I think I look fabulous in them and I've discovered that I can walk in them.
Of course, that's only so long as my feet allow. They're beginning to hurt. A lot. Foot pain isn't something I've had to worry about before (sensible flat shoes don't cause it) and I'm not sure I like it.
It occurs to me that most women who wear heels every day probably have to deal with aching feet every day. I guess it's something one just gets used to. But why? Really? I mean, it's just a look...
BUT a damn sexy one. Or if not sexy, at least professional. Dressy. I think these shoes make me look (and feel) like I mean business. Maybe tight, uncomfortable heels are the reason most business women get really cynical and sour. I wonder if Martha Stewart has to wear heels.

The internet was down at work today for a while. It led me to discover just how dependent I am on it, even though my job barely requires that I use it. I spent the morning feeling like a major part of my day was missing -- which in a way it was, as I wasn't able to talk to (or harrass) fishy every few minutes. I kept ALT-TABing into nothing.
Surprisingly, I think I was less productive when there was no internet than I usually am when there is.
2005-10-22, 09:35 PM — and how has your life been?
I'm updating my bookmarks. First time I've had bookmarks since the new computer, which makes it... well, months and months, believe it or not. And I hate to say it, but for those months, I wasn't really reading anyone else's stuff.
I got back on the wagon today when I decided I wanted to see if Alexis Allen had any interesting anima/manga comments. Got involved in reading all her entries, and then suddenly was involved in a whirlwind blog-reading escapade. So you're all on notice. I'm reading again.
It kind of makes me feel bad about letting this site fall into such disrepair. I wish I could promise it would get better, but we've all been down that path. There are just so many more times when I have nothing I want to say, when compared with times there's enough to say to fill a blog. Or whatever this can be considered. So, I'm not even going to attempt to promise anything. But I'm not vanishing forever; sometimes I'll be back to write.
