Wanna be on top?
What a day to be alive! What a momentous, incredible day! I struggled forEVER to get my work computer to cooperate, watched PRESIDENT OBAMA get sworn in (cried), then flailed in vain while that stopped working, then finally found an online radio that would at least give me audio, listened to the last bit of his speech (cried more) and was just generally thankful to be a part of it all. I can’t remember the last time I cared about a political figure, must less shed tears over one.
Yesterday I decided that this is the year I learn to walk in heels. I’m not sure why. I was just looking at shoes and they were pretty and they were heels and I thought, “dammit! I want pretty shoes!” So. I don’t know if my problem is that heels are just horribly uncomfortable by nature and I can’t stand that or if I’m just too lazy/impatient to adjust to the difference in walking and balance to get to the part where it stops being so horrible. Maybe a little of both. So we’ll see. Maybe I’ll get the hang of it.
I wore my itty bitty little nubbin heels to work today. I love the click-click-click of heels on the floor in the office…though I have to admit I live in fear of slipping and falling on my face and totally humiliating myself. It’s happened before. Not exactly the impression I want to make at the new job.
But I did notice today that I have the natural wind-in-the-hair runwalk thing that Lady Tyra is so fanatical about. I was feeling like hot shit after that. I must have gotten up to go to the bathroom or get coffee or put something in a far away filing cabinet like 800,000 times. It was a good day. A sexy momma kind of day.
This is way better than talking about how I sobbed to Boyfriend on the phone last night about how much I miss him and made him feel guilty about it and then felt like a huge asshole for being so intolerable and cried some more. Way. Better.
