Drolling

If anyone is looking for a sweet birthday present for me.. these would be graciously accepted... *sigh, I need a job to wear them for, and to pay for them.... Michael by Michael Kors 'Pressley' size 7, apparently you can only find them at nordstorms....

Need to take pictures and post, probably wont

sorry, lately I just haven't been in the mood to take pictures, although I do need to get one of the hair cut up, just a good trim up but it was way way over due (I got to Humboldt and decided, f it, its Humboldt, no one really gives a rats ass, which is true... no one would care, but I was getting sick of hair ties and bobby pins) and some other great finds recently (vintage purse, sweat sweatshirts, belts and of course shoes)

Until then, this is what is taking up my energy planning for...

Count downs have begun to commence as follows:
10 days til SLO
19 days til the half marathon (yikes!!!)
24 days til camping with some college folk I haven't seen in almost a year!
38 days til I am 24
51 days til the trip down to murrieta for Ashley's wedding
103 days til the SF marathon!

Busy busy busy... and hopefully, hopefully finding a job in SF, Oakland, Berk. area before the end of the summer... that would pretty much make my year, or 2 years...

Living in the Now

So.... maybe its just not ment to be... The shoes came in the size 8 yesterday... and they fit, but they are slightly on the large size... which when you are talking 5 inch heels is slightly important... *sigh*. I went back and jammed my feet into the 7's to see if they would fit better, just tight.. well I don't really think that is realistic eaither. Soooo I will go back and forthe about the two pairs until I go to slo... really this confirms that I am in fact a 7.5, not really a 7 and not really an 8. gur...

In other news, the conference went fabulously... we had over 1,000 people attend throughout the day, the rain held off, and 500+ came back and attended the key note speaker in the evening, and we raised $1000 in the silent auction (which was thrown together at the last minute) that money will be split between Food for People and 4-H (even more excitting is that neither organization know about it, so its a surprise gift!).

I was also asked if I would like to join the Board of Directors for the non-profit! Which is excitting in itself, a huge complement, but I then wonder if I am settling down here... I know if I was given a job offer in the Bay area that I thought was interesting and what I wanted to be doing, I would go, it isn't like I am settling with being here, but getting integrated sure doesn't help the pick up and move part. But then again, I have come to realize I need to live in the now, not in the future, and not in the past, otherwise I am missing out on life and not enjoying the excitement and beauty in my life and the place I live now.

Tragic!

So my order came, and it was like christmas... high risk shorts fit, shirt is adorable, hat... I don't want to take the fedora off my head... and just can't wait for the festivals that come with the warm weather to roll around so i can wear it... with the sunglasses of course...
Tragedy struck when I went to put the shoes on... they are absolutely 120% of what I expected... buttt.... they don't fit... I failed, i should of asked someone that had ordered shoes from them before, but I wear a 7-7.5 normally so I went with the 7... Fail... should of ordered the 8. There is no way to even shove my foot in them they are too small.
I am going to hold on to them and return them with the invoice in the store when I go down to SLO (I will be there the 22-25th and to return them by mail thy have to be post marked by the 28th of april... so even if they won't take them back in the store I can mail them off) I am cheap though and don't want to pay to ship them back, if I can just return them in the store...
I will proably be ordering the right size and paying shipping for them to send me the right size though... they are that cute... and I think manageable 5 inch heals...
until then I will prance around the house in my shorts, shades and fedora and be happy.

This weekend includes the Plan it Green conference, which I don't think I have mentioned much about. But its a big conference and this years theme is local self reliance, I am really excited about all the workshops going on, and hope I can make it up to watch the lawn to a garden workshop a group is doing in a local historic house next to where the event is taking place. I have been making phone calls like it was my job (like I was getting paid to do it, which I am not) to all the food dontation companies and all the exhibitors, non-profits and sponsers, I am in charge of the silent auction and whatever misc. things come up day of that need attention. Lucky me.. I really hope its sunny and blue skys... it would be a great wake from this dreary weather and a great way to kick off spring/summer.

Sunday I wll be easter egg hunting, dyeing more eggs, and doing a beer hunt, oh and making two bunny cakes (I will take pictures) one for my house, one for the beer hunt party.... so excited, really hope its nice weather!
