the Waltonian.

i seem to have made the front page. of my college newspaper! they did a front page article on the mission trip we did as coaches to El Salvador in July. how cool. do you think it's a coincidence they just happened to leave my name out of the article as a previous athletic coach? and that they also by accident forgot to mention i'm an '04 alumni of the school? yea. probably. i also found a typo/spelling error in the article. but hey, nice job Eastern!

shoe love.

GPOYW summer fall day edition.

today is a summer fall day. it is fall but feels like summer. so i chose to celebrate the 89 degrees that my car read in just the right ways.... wearing a tube top. and sipping an iced beverage. so why not indulge in my first PSL of the season? and summer-ize it served over ice. don't mind if i do. (and by golly, you can see i've inherited my grandma rosie's pinky finger in photo 2.)

first... i tried the sample. spiced caramel salted frap. or something like that. it was good.

then... a tall PSL with extra pump of the P. half cup ice please.

operation Wives Reunion.

Rach booked her Chicago ticket. and pretty soon, THIS will happen. can not. contain. my. excitement.

Missoni update.

much to my dismay, i called the Target near my office yesterday afternoon to even see if anything was left of the new Missoni line. the answer was no. clean sweep. shelves and racks bare. people were waiting in line for when they opened. my heart sunk.

the opening of this line SHUT DOWN the target website. i mean, c'mon people! so apparently there were alot of people not living under a rock and realized how important this event was.

i do not take no for an answer. so i ventured to TWO other Targets on my way home. yes, they were on my way. low and behold i scored myself some "scraps" still left! i was super excited.

first... the sweater dress which will look smashing with tights, boots, and a turtleneck.

second... the ballet flats i REALLY wanted!! this was a real miracle. as i approached the shoe department, i saw nothing but empty Missoni boxes literally thrown all over the floor. angry shoppers are messy! so as i stood there with a frown, a sales associate approached with a shopping cart and a whole new boxed shipment no one had touched!! i rejoiced, grabbed my size 7, and made a bee line to the check out.

it's ok to be jealous.
