So, tonight's the annual corporation Christmas party. ('Scuse typos, please, as am polishing nails. And I can't find my touch-up pen! And it's taking forever to dry! My nails will look good but my hair will suck if I can't style it. Woe!)

This year we're having a murder mystery party in which everyone must participate OR ELSE!!

Ummm. Yeah. WTF-ever, dudes. The only things I'm likely to participate in are heavy drinking, avoiding the East morons, and making suggestions for the victim. Booyah extra-points if there's more than one!!

I wonder if the frelling margarita machine will be there again this year, a lonely wallflower in the corner and under-alcoholized according to the partner who lobbied so annoyingly for it last year. She is now one of the snobs at the East hospital so I can ignore her with impunity. They have a much higher class of patients out east and far fewer Medicaid and no-pay patients and so they erroneously believe their shit don't stink.

I did not have time to buy a new dress but since my party dress looks fab and I only wear it once or twice a year I don't have a problem with that. I did buy new shoes. I would post a picture but I totally fail at Google today. Must be the nail polish fumes. Anyway, they're Nicole Miller, black satin sandals with an ankle strap and a circle of rhinestones at the toe. And apparently my feet have shrunk as these are size 6. o_O I suspect they've been playing with designer sizes again as my feet are absolutely not smaller. *sigh*

I saw some completely awesome bright red Stuart Weitzman's that would NOT fit! I was seriously considering the classic ugly stepsisters' moves but that would have been messy and probably would have got me banned for life from DSW so I refrained. Really, I do have small feet but these were apparently designed for someone with no ball to their foot. Alien shoes!

Tried on an amazing pair of Betsey Johnson's that fit (size 6 again. WTF, shoe peeps??) but were utterly impossible to walk in. Utterly. Believe me, I tried. It was comical. I would need a walker and that would totally ruin the impression I'd like to make. *g*

Hah! Found 'em! Are they not of the adorable? And I can walk in them. After scouring the DSW website, I still haven't found pix of the Alien Shoes or the Betsey Johnson Shoes of Doom. Pity. Mocking is much better when done in large groups.

Hugs flist. Catch ya tomorrow.

shopping, work
