today in the mail i received a christmas card from joanna. included in it was a button for my bag, it has a rainbow and says "i choose peace". i LOVE it. it made my whole face smile.
i went shopping for something to wear to my work christmas party tomorrow night after work. i found nothing. however, i decided to stop by payless and see if they have any boots. i've been
needing boots for several years. what i've been wanting is a pair of skater shoes that are boots and that's EXACTLY what i found. my "romy" airwalks. they're awesome, comfy and warm!! i totally love them! i've been wearing them nonstop all evening. they're so comfortable and cozy. they boast "designed to keep feet dry and warm in sub-zero temperatures", when i first saw the label i thought it said "-40º" and thought "super!" but when i got home i noticed that it said "-4º" which is not nearly as impressive. but thankfully i thought to double check when i got home tonight at its -4ºF which is -20ºC which is MUCH better. and to top it all off they were on sale. yay! i discovered today that -40º is where fahrenheit and celsius cross-over. interesting huh?i went to the screening room with new girl catherine (i like that i call her new girl catherine, i hope she's not offended by this, it helps differentiate between her and other catherines. i know 4). we saw "the queen" it was interesting. i felt it made her majesty seem more human and less human at the same time. the she came over for some "silver tea", i'm excited because i want to have guests over more often.
so i never did find anything to wear to the christmas party. i decided i'd just wear the same thing as last year. who's gonna notice. i've only worn it twice and it seems silly to spend money on something i'll only wear once. the only problem is i wanted to wear the necklace laney gave me but it won't match. i've gotta try it on in advance and make sure it still fits properly, i presume it will, but its smart to check, then i'll still have some time to check in a boutique downtown. hahaha, i said boutique. haha.
you'll have to learn,
just like me,
and that's the hardest way.

those temperature ratings don't mean anything... my boots are rated to -100C and i still got frostbite. :( not this year though. yet.
you're probably right, althought -20º seems much more attainable than -100º. that's crazy. even if my boots won't take me all the way to -20º i'm still happy, they're WAY warmer than my birkenstocks ;)
Lesley, glad you liked the button. When I saw it at the Royal Melbourne Show in October I thought of you right away.
yay! thanks so much. its one of my favourites! such a fun thing to get in the mail ;)
