I know! That's why you love me so much :)

Hey, I never got so drunk that I lost one shoe and the other melted off my foot :facepalm:

Well, to be fair, it didn't actually "melt". It exploded...and the ladies at the Ballet ticket office still eye me suspiciously everytime I go there...
Gosh, they serve great Wine at the Ballet...You should go with me sometime. The wine makes the ballet more exciting to watch.
And - by the way - I have all new shoes now!
I've had too much tea this evening. I'm a little ADHD...

The male dancers wear reallllllly tight costumes. Sometimes I have to remind myself I'm not at "Thunder from down Under"'s show...(Vegas). The ballet ushers really FROWN on hooting & hollering...and trying to put dollar bills in the leotards REALLY gets them upset!

I'm very practical too. I accept the vacuum as a gift, but then act a little snarky, and Boom; a new Dooney Burke purse appears!! WinWin! :D

I'm just a country girl and wouldn't know a Dooney Burke if you threw it at me, but now jewelry...that's another story...I do love me some jewelry. Oh, and shoes. ;)

ooo Jewelry & shoes are acceptable alternatives...
Plus, I have a new vacuum, so when DH does the vacuuming it's not as noisy and doesn't interrupt my quiet long bubble bath time...J/K...people will start to think that I act like a princess or something...
I'm really a country girl at heart - but well, I suppose I do get a little spoiled sometimes...

Yes, but they are also doing ballet. Something is just not so sexy about men doing ballet lol

LOL, I don't need fancy purses or jewelry ... well, maybe sometimes when I get all dressed up on Friday nights ... but I'll betcha I could be one of those ballet dancer fellas.

Couldn't you just see me in those tight clothes with my spindly legs and big belly and Stetson hat?

Ha!!! I'll bet all those pretty ladies would be swooning all over the place!

I got this quick mental image of your picture of you in your new Stetson. Wearing a ballet suit, flitting around on stage :facepalm:

Yes, TeTa. Tell the story of your exploding shoe and why you always have to make sure that you have an extra pair in your car for ballet since the law now requires it lol

It's a pretty short story. My fancy Italian shoes with thick rubber soles were about 15 years old. Apparently that old Italian rubber has something in it that degrades over time. One of them exploded while I was walking from the parking lot into the Seattle Ballet one night. I felt something funny & looked down to see the bottom of the shoe gone. Then chunks of the other shoe began shooting off to the sides, almost impaling a street musician ...
I had to change into the only other shoes in my car, which were either old crocs or old Birkenstocks...I can't remember which - but I felt like everyone was mocking me for the entire evening. Perhaps it was just because my dear sister was pointing it all out...
sigh.
That is why I always have to carry spare shoes in the Jeep.
It's now a law I believe.
And, I still find little chunks of shoe in my car everytime I vacuum it.
