woooooeeeeee sllllow down.

I've loved the quote "just try and ruin my day" ever since I've heart it. We all let the little things stress us out. What do you get him for Christmas? Is the donut I just ate already showing up in my left thigh? Would my eyes look better with some botox? Did I really just drop my Blackberry and leave it in that icy parking lot?

Well today my day as going fine. I woke up it was -12 degrees (with a -28 windchill). I moseyed over to work. Did some catching up and popped out the door to a meeting. Then the good streak ended. My 'oil pressure' light went on. I call good ol' dad who says I need an oil change ASAP. FYI - no one has taught me about oil changes and rotating tires. I called/went to six body shops, dudes driving to clients is part of my job, no one could get me into next week.

By this time I'm freaking out and head over to a dealership. and blah blah blaahhh. They tell me my engine is dunzo. End of the story - I now have to buy myself a new car - not really what I wanted my bonus money to go towards.

Moral of the story: I'M A REAL ADULT!

Florsheim Shoes {closed}

Thank you to all that entered and congrats to EMMA for winning! xo You know when you first meet a handsome boy, in my case it was a bar, and everything about him is near perfect. His chiseled features, dark shiny hair, and stunning light blue eyes. Then you look down, and gasp, he's wearing sneakers. Not your run of the mill, fashion forward footwear, but we are talking Nike, Adidas, etc. running shoes. He's wearing them in a bar, with jeans, and a polo. If you're anything like me, the only times tennis shoes are acceptable are on the elliptical machine or running a half marathon. This boy turned out to be the love of my life, and with little resistance I was able to turn him into my fashionable sidekick. With a little help from Florsheim you can take your Valentine from sorry to sexy with a pair of shoes courtesy of this luxury brand. I've put together some inspirational looks for you. Just remember, you may not able to c...
