New Shoes, Etc! (Aug 12 2005)
[Edit 8/14 12:22 AM] I am selling 2 things on ebay. Please go check them out. Thanks.
Yesterday Mom and I went to Lady Footlocker and bought me some new running shoes, so that I wouldn't get a blister every time I tried to wear my old crappy non-running shoes (Skechers). I ended up with New Balance 536's, which look sort of like this. They're so light, so when I was running on the treadmill today, I knew that most of the work I was doing was lifting the weight of my legs, not lifting the weight of my legs plus my shoes. And they didn't blister me.
This, I think, will be a pretty happy (but busy) weekend. I have a dermatologist's appointment tomorrow, and I also need to buy some new clothes before I go to school. If we go to the mall in Fairview Heights that has a Weathervane, it'll be easy to find pants that fit, and I just need shirts that are long enough to cover my beautiful midriff. I should probably go through my closet and see what is most desperate.
I bought the supplies to sew my and Drew's pajamas, so I want to get those done if I can. Sewing is pretty relaxing -- that'll be nice.
I also want to record some of the shows that I have Tivo'd onto a tape (if it'll let me) so that I can watch them at school. I guess I'll try to set that up tomorrow night or one night this week. Also this week, I'll need to do some laundry and start boxing a few things up before the big moveout on Sunday the 21st.
When I get a few spare moments, remind me to tell you about the Missouri cow stories. And the ostrich farm guy. And the tractor guy. Life is so funny and so sad.
