Freedom! Shopping! Hooray!

My office has been short handed the past few weeks, so I offered to cover a few extra shifts to help out. Due to an oversight on my part, I wound up working eleven days straight. Not much fun, and by yesterday I started feeling a little worn out. Today, however, was day eleven, and I'm thrilled to have a few days off.

After nearly two weeks straight of high heels, my feet are killing me. Not too long ago I finally forced myself to throw away my Eastland clogs (which were grody and worn nearly through), and that decision left me with very few comfortable shoe options for work. Tonight I stopped by a department store to return a dress, and they had a sale on a pair of Borns that looked just like my beloved clogs - hooray for comfy shoes!

Speaking of shopping... some bitch has gone and bought up every single pair of size six khaki pants in the ENTIRE TOWN. Seriously - I've been to every store I can think of, and without fail they will have every size except the one I need. It's making me crazy! I have skirts and nice dress slacks, but sometimes I just want to toss on a pair of khakis and a polo shirt and call it good. This is a sucky thing about living in a smaller town - fewer shopping options. I'm going back to Spokane this weekend - wish me luck on the pant hunt.
