i swear!
So why, last night, when i was shoe shopping in Basra Asda (don't look at me like that, i'm a poor student) was i getting the feeling that i should just've gone up to the counter and asked for the fuckin' boxes.
Seriously, i knew it was really bad when i walked over to the men's section and still couldn't find shoes big enough!
There was nothing in the women's section that even approached a size 9. Not even close. And there were some very pretty shoes.
Ok, yes, i own what pretty much amounts to a single pair of boots, and that's almost all i ever wear. i gots a pair of party shoes and some sandals for summer, but that's it. But it doesn't mean i'm a complete loss to the female species. i do occasionally want to buy some completely gratuitous shoes for no good reason.
The sight of about forty pairs of size 3s nearly broke my heart. Then i moved over to the men's and the first three pairs i picked up are size 7/8s. *weeps* (Also, and don't tell anyone 'cos this maybe be what finally have them revoke my XX card, the blokes shoes were actually very tempting. Some v nice boots in dark brown leather... mmm...)
Seriously, am i that much of a freak?
Also, i've fallen in love. If anyone wants to buy me anything from
this website for Crimbo i will not argue. Plus, i must stop buying the Sib prezzies and instead get on with everyone else's.
Now, a shite meme. (this is wot i get from trawling through
episkopos's lj, obviously)
Apparently, if you've seen less than eighty-five of these, you have no life.
And whoever said that will be First Against the Wall When the Revolution Comes, Comrades. Have no fear of that.
