shoes, i hate people day, disneyfood
the fall season is coming out and what do i get? emails about promotions and sales, especially on... shoes! i love shoes. i actually don't shop very often, but when i do, i like to spend on shoes. they totally make the outfit and the right shoe can make the outfit dressed up or down, sexy, or casual. and with my pumps getting worn out and my boots, shoot, my birthday gift to myself very well may be a shoe shopping trip. plus it'll help settle the sadness of mina leaving. wah wah wah. shoes make all better. much like ice cream. yeahhh.
oh, so the other day when all i could do was blog a scream, aughh, that was an "i hate people" type of day. there were a lot of things going on, mostly work-related. since i've read so many articles about people getting fired for blogging, i shall refrain from doing so, because i truly love my job and the challenges that corporate life brings. however, there are just days when you are up to your ear with crap with all the dramarama that goes on with coworkers, and your tolerance for the crap is just down to none. between that and feeling really disappointed by a friend that day, i was just royally pissed off. but, like i said, nothing a good happy hour can fix!
so we went to disneyland yesterday with gemmie and mina as part of mina's last-things-to-do-before-she-moves-away. it was a grand ol' time! rides? yes i suppose we rode rides, but we actually scheduled these and other activities around the food! oh my gosh, it was sooo yummy! we had double dipped corn dogs, bacon-wrapped asparagus, a strawberry and banana parfait, dole pineapple whip, more bacon-wrapped asparagus, clam chowder in a bread bowl, and finished off with deep fried cheesecake. it was quite a yummy day in the park!
we're having mina and danny's send off shindig tonight. we're both very sad about all this. the leaving part, not the party part. well, we'll just have to visit each other right? at least it's just across the state, not across the country, *ahem*. short time and long distance. it seems to be my theme for the summer.
in other news... well, not news, but topics... what shall i do for my birthday? i wanna get together with friends of course, but where? any suggestions? food is a must, alcohol is a plus. :)

"To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the
greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks
nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid
suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change,
grow, live, and love."
~unknown
"It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues."
~ Abraham Lincoln
"live a life that others will remember years from now, NOT because it pointed to you but because of how it pointed to the One who made you."
~ Mark Hart, the Bible Geek
"we grow up learning to become self-reliant, but really we need to be God-reliant"
"we could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box"
"never wound hearts that love u, never give them the endless pain, because wounded hearts are like roses that never bloom"
"there comes a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that person has stopped loving us but because we have found out that they'd be happier if we'd let go"
