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.
