Knowing the snow was coming I decided it was time to get something a little more suitable than crepe-soled, Cuban-heeled Fluevogs for tromping around in it. I scored some Harley boots at Winners for $80! I went to  David Gordon to compare the regular price and they were $200... and they had these lovely pointy shoes on sale to replace my recently deceased 'Vogs of similar design. Good shoe day.

It's time once again for my new-shoe posting ritual.

I purchased these on Saturday and wore them to work today. No blisters, not even so much as a tender spot... I think, after all these years, I have developed 'Vog-shaped feet.

See the "New Romantics" sign in the Fleuvog window.
Go in and see brand new pointy shoes.
Love the pointy shoes.
Buy the pointy shoes.
Walk home in the pointy shoes - hey that didn't hurt much!
Consequently decide to walk to work in the pointy shoes.
Show up considerably later than usual and ask the receptionist where the bandages are.

But, damn it, they are pointy Fleuvogs!

New 'Vogs!
Yay! New Shoes!
Yay! Pointy 'Vogs!

I still can't decide if life sucks or if I am enjoying myself Yesterday as I was walking home I ran into nice Nicole again, as well as Lori and Graeme. Work today alternated between biting ass and being interesting. Ivana's dropped off the face of the earth, not a word from her for over a week - so I'm giving up on her. Having money in my pocket feels great - I went and bought $200 Fleuvogs (pointy ones at that, I've been saying for a year they were coming back and they have - ha!) because my shoes had finally worn out to the point of being uncomfortable. I went to the store where Epine works and chatted with her for a while and then (after failing to hail a cab) did my usual ferry and market thing. I've had these ideas churning around in my head about doing something really, really interesting and they are starting to make sense. I started a new painting yesterday and worked on it today. I've upgraded my web server software. Damn it. I just don't know. I feel like a train on the verge of becoming a runaway. This could be very good or very bad.
