So go read it instead;) I'm just in a bitchy mood so I'm bitching about the continuation of my iTunes experience from the other day. Fuckers. It hacks me off....I still am getting the urge to puke every time my eyes hit that damn iPod, or see iTunes on my desktop and I think about that effing button. One second....and everything....just gone. Ug. Anyways....some hoochie, whose name isn't Stephen- therefore I wasn't talking to her anyhow *rolls eyes* but whatever....hee hee- emailed me back.
> I understand your frustration with losing your music and certainly know how that must feel. However, our previous response was to let you know that we have replaced your music on two other occasions, 2/21/06 and 3/06/07. When you purchase music from the iTunes Store, you may download it one time. Just as when you purchase a hard copy of a CD, you get one copy.
> > When your purchases were lost the first time, we made an exception and reissued these purchases again for you to enjoy. This was a one-time exception and information on backing up your purchases was provided to you at that time.
> > The second time, we made another unprecedented exception due to the fact that you are a good iTunes Store customer. We provided information about backing up your music once again.
> > I'm very sorry to hear that you did not back up your purchases either of those times. When reissuing purchases to our customers, the iTunes Store must do so at our expense. We feel that making an exception once for our customers is more than a retail store will offer in the event that you lose a hard copy CD and we have extended this opportunity twice in your case.

My new response went a little somethin' like this: Listen bitch.... Eff off!
Just kidding....it's this....;) Might not be much better but hey....I try *shrugs*:
I understand what your response was for- quite frankly I find this response rather condescending, and I most certainly didn't ask for that. I can hardly imagine that out of the billions of people that use iTunes every day we're the one "unprecedented exception" to any rule that's been used to that very day. And as much as I can appreciate your analogy- I don't agree...sure you get one hard copy of a cd you purchase at a store...but you aren't able to delete it. I can lose my iPod...I can lose a cd- but I didn't. I can delete an iPod when trying to following the directions to finish syncing it, but I can't delete a hard copy of my cd- it's not an option. I don't feel like your policy was very well explained before then by the way....nor do I feel like the process for accomplishing getting playlists/songs from an iPod to a library/computer is very well explained. I think there should be a better system in place to warn you that you're DELETING every single song you've ever purchased and placed on your iPod- you know....maybe red and warning....*shrugs*. At this point.....I asked for whatever information I need as far as contacts to pursue getting that done, so that other people don't have the same problem repeatedly (as I'm very much aware I'm not the only person to find themselves in this position). I'd also like to know if I can be provided at the very least a list of my purchased music- not songs to download....a simple list....like a receipt, so that I can at least make sure I can put our personal playlists back in some sort of form eventually- I'm attempting, but it's being nearly impossible for me to physically write out lists of that nature that contain things in a handful of playlists from such a long period of time- I'm no where near 100 so far, let alone 300. Thanks.
I really just wanna go hunt them all down and delete everything off their iPods.....so then they'll stop saying the "understand" where I'm coming from, when obviously they don't....duh. That...and I bet they always have their playlists on hand to make available *rolls eyes*. Bleh.
If someone sees me on tomorrow, remind me that I needed to call Jason's measurements into the tux place. I'm pretty sure I'll remember but hey....ya never know. I was pregnant once ya know. I'm pretty sure you forever lose most capacity for remember anything at that point *shrugs*. Have a good week guys :)

My entry before this one is by far more interesting.
Gimme Somethin' to Talk About...
Well...what is up guys??
I don't have a ton to say...or actually, let me rephrase: I don't think I have a ton to say. But I'm going to predict that by the time I'm done with this entry I'll have come up with quite a bit lol;)
Been attempting to watch the Nascar race with Jason (well until he fell asleep anyways lol). It's in Kansas this weekend....so we gotta represent or something like that *rolls eyes*. I say that like we don't watch it every other weekend *rolls eyes*. His Grandpa is a massive fan. When I would stay the weekend with them (when I moved to BP we only got to see each other on weekends when I was in school still) that's the routine....come home from church....watch Nascar race/nap lol. He always falls asleep...but he'd wake right up if you actually changed the channel...god forbid! I remember a good two years of staring at that tv as everyone around me is half assed watching and taking naps and thinking.....why on earth would anyone ever wanna watch this crap?!? It's cars....going in a circle....for HOURS *bangs head on wall*. I grew to appreciate it though lol *shrugs*. My favorite is Jr yo. Don't worry....he'll pick back up next year with the new ride I think. Jason's a Jamie McMurray fan- but only b/c he's from Joplin *rolls eyes*. I loathe Tony Stewart....but I loathe Jeff Gordon even more. Ug- he makes me wanna puke. I think he's secretly a real Rainbow Warrior *winks* if you catch my drift. I only somewhat place Stewart lower on my list b/c I love that he harrasses Jeff Gordon;) I have a love/hate relationship with Kevin Harvick too....he's a punk and a jackass....but he's spunky....and he fights dirty- so he at least makes for an interesting race then lol;) Anyways....they just started up again from the rain delay. Hate to break it to them but shortly they'll have to stop again- it's just started pouring and storming here and its all moving that way *shrugs*. It hasn't rained this hard in a LONG time. Bizzare.
So yesterday was Nicolle and Scott's wedding shower. It was supposed to be a 'couples shower'. Eh whatever. Unfortunately....it wasn't all that well....anything? Lol. We got there about 10 minutes after it was supposed to start and Nicolle hugs me and says "well at least we have 2 friends..." lol. A girl she used to work with and her husband showed up later...and then Anne gave up on waiting for her husband (for a good TWO hours....she was slightly pissed) and came even later...and that was it other than family. I think the whole slacking on getting them the guest list thing contributed to that....but what do I know;) Oh well... more food and beer for us!! Or wine if you're me....I'm not a beer drinker. Not post-high school anyways. I'm not afraid to lay the facts on the table and be different: it tastes....like crap. Don't tell me try this kind or that kind....I have- it's still disgusting. Ya'll are just kidding yourselves. My Dad told me in college that I had to "acquire" a taste for beer.....have one with your dinner- you'll start to like it sooner or later....Heh. Thanks Dad. Sure.....or I'll just become an alcoholic *twirls finger*. Dr. Pepper is so much cheaper....I tried the acquiring thing but it still didn't do anything for me. The only time I've ever had a drink of beer that was good, was at the lake....my Dad convinced me to try part of their snack....it was what "fishermen do" at the lake *grrrr...men food....* *rolls eyes*. It was a friggin oyster on a cracker *shudders at the memory*. It's an awful, horrible, very strong taste. I was all gagging needing some water or something- and my Uncle hands me a beer....that is the one time I've ever thought beer tasted good. And boy did it ever. I just don't think that eating that oyster crap so that I can down a beer is very logical reasoning *shrugs*. I'm a fruity flavored kinda girl *shrugs*. And I like non-red wine lol. Or at least am discovering I do. Jorge busted out some fabulous stuff last night- but I only had two glasses....someone had to be the DD yo. And Mommy when I went to pick Jae up and reality started up again lol. Jason on the other hand....well let's just say he and Scott get competitive even with beer *rolls eyes*. Though Scott was far more gone that Jason lol. Dweebs. We had SO much fun though lol. I don't think I've laughed so hard in my life lol. Poor Jason and Scott....I've grown up around these people my whole life....I know they're crazy fun.....and if I didn't live in one of the stories being told- I'd already heard it b/c it involved my Aunt or some of their other friends I know from tagging along when I was little. They're even funnier now than at the time....it speaks a lot for them that they're still around and don't think Nicolle and I either one are not wife material b/c of our crazy families lol. The best story by far though was about Anne's husband before she came lol. Scott told it (they played college baseball together....baseball boys are crazy....Jason has no clue what he's in for at this bachelor party....I keep telling him that but I still don't think he gets it lol)- let's just say Freshman introduction to the team was rather crazy.....involved partying, and a game of "Lay it all out on the table" *winks*. I'll let you guess what the "it" was;) Cody won. And Scott swears that's the only reason Anne is still married to him and puts up with his crap lol. Scott also has a mad funny storyabout Jason- he came to pick him up and he'd just gotten out of the shower, had to throw on just a pair of old shorts to get down to the door...anyways, Scott's version is one of the funniest things I've ever heard in my life, and basically he also thinks Jason's got the biggest penis on the face of the planet too.....but I don't think I can get through it without peeing myself so I'll save it for another day. Lucky Scott.....he swears he was second to Cody....so that would mean between him and his two good friends- if there was a top penis list they'd dominate the top three apparently *rolls eyes*. Boys are so weird *rolls eyes more*. Lots of fun. Wish my batteries wouldn't have died right after we got there or I sooo would have video taped the majority of it lol. My stomach is sore today from laughing so much. Never fear....I'll be prepared....the reception is going to be a repeat- only worse, and there for much more fun;)
All in all I'd say we had a pretty good weekend lol. Fun anyways *shrugs*.
See....told ya I'd think of something to talk about;)
On that note I'm craving some serious chocolate. I hate that...I'm so not a sweets person....then I get a craving like this for sudden chocolate and it's like hell trying to find some *rolls eyes*. Must go.

Bows, Bows, Bows...
So I listed a bunch of stuff on eBay today.

Note....if anyone is interested in just 1 Halloween-ish type bow just ask and I can do that too, or the same goes for the smaller ones. In fact...if you're like me and have a daughter with little to no hair lol....I can sew just that smaller size (1-2in) and do something custom for you like that (put a small dab of Karo syrup...or I think I heard you can use KY Jelly too but I never tried that one...in the center on the back and hold it in place on the baby's head where you want it- and ta da! you've got bows yo....and they come right off with a little bit of water, don't worry lol;) ).
I've got a whole deal full of other bows I have laying around and I think I'm going to seperate them into lots also and get them up on there too. I'll add new links for that when I do. I've started with Christmas stuff already and need more space or Jason's gonna die *rolls eyes*lol.
I'm Back.
So I tried everything on the face of the planet (including spyware duh) to fix the computer....it would get to nearly being finished and there would be two system 32 files that were infected it just couldn't seem to rid of. Stupid virus bs. Anyhow- I tried the restore thing.....had issues b/c it would freeze up when it got to those two files. Then it would just freeze and not attempt the restore at all. So....finally it was like okay screw it, I'll just have to restore it to the factory shipped condition.....otherwise I'm just staring at a blue screen telling me its messed up and missing a file it needs to start and work right. So bleh. That was the only other alternative. Naturally....I'm still adding back other programs we had on here. Thank gah I've started burning my pictures off constantly- as soon as I've got a disks worth....and haven't taken any important ones here lately or I'd have to be livid they're gone. So get this: we have iTunes. We've had it for years now....right after we got back from Jamaica was when we bought the first iPod we have- so you do the math. There have been two times something messed up with our computer or with iTunes and it had to be reinstalled altogether. All the music? Gone. But in our iPod so no biggie right....it'll transfer. Nope.....Jason was in charge and twice....yes twice....ended up deleting our whole library from the iPod in the process *bangs head on wall*. I was so irritated with him...I mean come on- he obviously was just hitting "yes" to everything that popped up and not reading it first....how the hell do you just up and delete hundreds of songs. The first time we had purchased music from iTunes on it, plus Jason went through every cd we had and added music he liked. We're talking hundreds and hundreds of songs and lots of time for that one. We didn't add back the stuff from our own cd's b/c it took so long in the first place. Therefore ever since- the only music in the library is stuff we've purchased from iTunes. We're talking 300-and some odd songs as of yesterday. Yesterday I wouldn't let Jase even touch the damn iPod let alone install it all on the computer....b/c he was just being an ass and not paying attention when it screwed up before....anyone can sucessfully do this right? I mean duh.
Heh. Wrong. I took my sweet little time, and still ended up doing the same damn thing. I tried several options....I tried opening my "help" section and searching....nothing. I then opened an IE page and searched the support site.....did what I thought it was telling me to do in the articles....and bam- suddenly I've got nothing left. Fuckers. I was so livid pissed. I'm still livid pissed. So I email the support people- before we emailed them and they just sent back a link where all our music was available to be put back on the computer- end of story. No notes or anything along with it *shrugs*. So I get home last night and get this:
Dear Jason,> > I'm sorry to hear the titles you purchased from the iTunes Store with account "jdeel@cox.net" were lost. I know how upsetting that can be.

Thanks but no thanks. Actually, those articles won't be helpful, since I have no music to back up. I'd like to know who to contact about suggesting the process be more clear- as I read your sync from the ipod to a computer article.....and that's exactly what I thought I was doing when I clicked that "Yes" and all my music disappeared. That....is crap. And I'm sorry, but if our PURCHASED music is a violation of terms of service then why was it made available prior?!? If I was just an idiot who thinks they can delete their entire iPod library and get it instantly back all the time it would be one thing, but this has legitimately happened- I opened my help menu and searched before ever hitting that stupid button that destroyed everything, and got no results. I then opened my IE page and went to the SUPPORT SITE and searched there....I got info that didn't pertain to what I was trying to do, or was shady and didn't say exactly what I was seeing or being clear....I did what I thought that was telling me to do......and suddenly felt the urge to puke b/c I'd just accomplished what I thought my fiancee was being absent minded over and I'd been angry over prior. And on top of all that....I'm sorry but we can't possibly be the only people on the planet with that problem, so it obviously needs to be addressed to the attention of the appropriate Apple person period.
It is obvious you don't know just how upsetting that can be- we're not talking about a little time lost downloading things....we're talking about HUNDREDS of dollars worth of music we legitimately purchased. Livid would be a better term. I made sure to very carefully and slowly go through the process of installing things on our computer after the virus attack we had- precisely b/c my fiancee was in charge of it before and quickly clicked a button before really being clear on what would happen and seeing he'd deleted everything. I thought it was crazy he could do that with reading the instructions, that clearly he must have just hit yes without really reading or something....until I did so, carefully, several times, having others read it, calling a friend with an iPod and asking her and reading the screen to her as well....and ended up doing the same thing (after choosing the other option first, and absolutely nothing happening and our music not available at that point even). I think it's assinine in the first place that you could even just up and delete an entire library like that when you're merely installing. It should never even be an option....who spends 99 cents a song on hundreds of songs (and several whole albums on top of that) and just up and is okay with losing all that?!?! That is nuts. After losing several hundred songs today- that obviously adds up to my spending several hundred dollars with iTunes on music on top of the two hundred and some odd I first spent when purchasing the actual iPod to begin with (and later also money an iPod shuffle, that no longer can be used either), in part because of the customer support received in the past....there is no way I'm going to just sit back and say oh well....I'll spend a few hundred more to "fix" things. I'll retire my iPods, iTunes, and promptly send info to everyone I know to beware that they could just as easily be screwed over as well.....or at least maybe some of your "helpful" articles might help one of them before it's too late, where it wasn't made clear or helpful for us. Thank you.
That was the nicest way I could possibly email the jackass back. Note: I'm still livid pissed. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be livid pissed for awhile. No more Lean Like A Cholo for me I guess *rolls eyes*. Ug.
Wednesday, September 26, 2007
So I think I'm gonna do the restore setting deal this afternoon....I can't deal with this thing and it's effing popups- it makes me wanna toss the computer out the front door into the street yo. I've tried everything I can think of or look up and nothing is getting totally rid of it, or its coming back. That crap hacks me off. Enlighten me.....exactly what do pop-ups accomplish anyways?? It pisses people off, so the last thing they're gonna do is stop to look at your crap first and find some need to follow the link *rolls eyes*. Idiots.
Went shopping last night. No luck lol. Dude....shoes are already hitting the fall mark- there are no wedding-ish shoes that are light enough, and have a small enough heel. That or they were hideous. Not cool. We found one pair at Von Maur that were eh, okay. But nope. Not that cute. She's gonna be screwed *sigh*. We also found one dress there that she liked. I think its too dressy but she wants it full length long because she's got issues with hating her legs like me- heh. However....I found several at Dillards that I tried on that hit mid calf and I still loved them *shrugs*. Too bad I couldn't tote around my Canon and shoot pictures discreetly lol. Took them on my cell phone but I don't have like the internet thingy on my phone- its just on Jason's *shrugs*. So oh well.
Dude.....you people with the music player deals are cramping my blog following style yo. I must be the only person on the face of the planet who browses the web with my own music playing lol *shrugs*. I click on someone's page with music and my frigging Lean Like A Cholo starts skipping and then blares with something mixed in. Took me a time or two to figure out the damn player was at the bottom of the page too lol *rolls eyes*. I'm probably the only person on the face of the planet who logs into MySpace and makes sure I turn the speakers totally OFF lol. I hate that shit. I have different musical taste obviously lol than most people I know.....MySpace songs annoy the hell out of me b/c I think most of them suck lol. It usually includes my own song too so don't get yourself all bent outta shape. I browse and usually give up finding one I really like and just doing whatever *shrugs*- you know....turning the speaker off lol;) If I have to hear that stupid Hey There Delilah song one more damn time I'm going to go off myself I swear. Bleh.
Okay...now that that's off my chest lol *shrugs*. I figured I'd blog once if I'm gonna attempt fixing this stupid computer today- so if I disappear ya'll will know its cause I screwed it up even more lol;)
My shins and ankles are killing me worse today than yesterday. I think I'm going to die. Okay well not really. But it hurts like a mother- ice packs are my friend today. I got up to come downstairs at 5-ish before Jason left. I laid back down on the couch after hobbling down here and he came and kissed me goodbye before leaving lol. I told him I felt like he'd been kicking me in the shins and ankles about a hundred times each- I think he thought I was talking about dreaming that, cause he's all "oh yeah...that's what I've been doing..." and like humoring me- and I'm like no punk....they hurt from running damn it. Duh. I'm not talking in my flippin' sleep *rolls eyes*. Anyhow....I guess that's about all I know.
Heh...I caught part of Oprah yesterday- until it reminded me I needed to call my GM lol. Why you might be thinking (if you saw it lol)? Because after I graduated high school, we were all at the house for something or another....I was on the porch reading the paper and my Dad and her were also out there bs'ing. I exclaim omg....because I see in the paper that a girl a year younger than I am, well her Mom was in the paper for a birth announcement! Her parents are older than mine anyhow. But yeah. I was like "Omg- Dad....that'd be like you and MJ having another baby right NOW!!! Could you imagine?!?! Ug!" to which my GM turns and exclaims "Well I hate to break it you.....but teenagers are the only people that have sex...." as she walks inside. I look at Dad and am like ug....tmi thanks. That was sooooo not what I meant anyways lol. I just meant it would suck to be in your forties and starting back at square one with kids when yours are all in high school or graduated. Not my idea of a good time thanks *shrugs*. That and I'll never have a bunch of kids all scattered out in age, b/c I am one......and it isn't all fun and games. Its a lot of growing up quickly b/c you're responsible for your siblings b/c there are just too many of you for Mom to not need that help *shrugs*. As much as I love my siblings...and my parents...and as much as I know my childhood contributed to who I am now (and in some ways in my circumstances now with having lost my Mom I appreciate it a little more....b/c a lot of things I find I do as the Mom, were things I learned from her and helping with my brothers/sisters- its sort of comforting I guess sort of like, she's "there" in our life somehow *shrugs* I dunno how to explain it- I know it sounds stupid if you've not btdt, sorry *shrugs*)- I still don't think its right. My children will never be responsible for each other....ever. I debated that with a girl I used to work with, that I grew up with.....who kept having child after child, with a mentally abusive cheating husband (who was making even more kids...with various other women...ug), when they couldn't afford the three they had already anyways....and could care less because she just thinks it would be "fun" to have 7 kids....that's just what she wants, so whatever works, right? She had one sibling- this was her basis for all the "fun". I'm like yeah....so you can work your ass off your whole life and not get to spend any time with them, b/c you're at work- trying to provide the maximum amount of mac/cheese and ramen noodles you can....with no help from your husband....letting your older kids essentially raise the younger ones. Oh yeah....lots of fun *rolls eyes*. Ug. People like that annoy me. Like watching the shows on the Duggars lol. It's like good lord *rolls eyes*. Of-freaking-course those kids are all saying they're happy and well adjusted on track people....they don't know any different way of life!!! Put them in the real world.....and they're gonna be like wth....where's my buddy?!? *rolls eyes*. I get taking on the attitude of being more than happy with whatever number of kids that the Lord is willing to give you......at least they're stable in other ways, ya know? There are so many other people that say they "believe" that way and that's how they justify popping out child after child....when really if you get right down to it it's just irresponsibility on their part.
Okay got off topic lol- but I could argue about that stuff for days yo. Anyways Oprah....was about sex...reasons to have it...sex when you're older...and so on. It made me chuckle to myself and recall that conversation with GM lol. That and a subsequent trip a few years later shopping with her and Tomma andRhendi and hitting Victoria's Secret. Rhendi and I are shopping along minding our own business when the other two hollar across the room- "Tori, these are your colors!!! Jason would love it!!!" as they hold up some nightie thing *rolls eyes*. Rhendi and I looked at each other like what the hell have we gotten ourselves into here lol....she's all "well....I never thought we'd ever go shopping and hear anything like that out of Nan's mouth....that's just kinda weird" lol. Yeah. You're telling me. I got over it eventually lol- no trauma. Now its kinda funny and makes for interesting shopping trips (a couple Christmases ago R and I talked her into a Santa-inspired get up lmao.....their anniversary is Xmas Eve....since Tim and I are both gone now we teased them that they could actually have a "real" anniversary now lol- Tomma got a huge ball of mistle toe that year at the florist and snuck in and hung it in their bedroom too lol....we're all kinds of fun up in this family huh *rolls eyes*). Anyhow- I called her and told her she ought to watch....some gal was telling me if I have great sex in my 50's then I won't believe the sex I'll have in my 60's and 70's;) Lol. She agrees *rolls eyes*. I said well just please don't tell me you have sex at the golf course like the gal on here was all wild about.....*rolls eyes*. It was an interesting show lol. A fun one. My favorite were reasons for having sex......the lady getting the new house *rolls eyes*- hey whatever works *shrugs*. I mean at least it's her husband.....there are probably a whole lot of ladies out there with the same reasoning that are actually called....whores?? But yeah.
Alright....fun entry wasn't that?!? *rolls eyes*. I'm out. Have a good one guys :)

Question. So answer it yo.
Okay so I finally found a deal to get rid of this WinAntiVirus thingy right. And I think it did....so far so good- nothing popping up. However....just now, my freaking start menu/blue bar thingy disappeared again. If I minimize my page my desktop icons are gone too. Anyone have any bright ideas on why?!? Or how to fix it??? Bless you if you do. It's really pissing me off.
If I ever get things back to normal on this thing I've got more pictures to put up. Jaeli was being a ham the other night. That and I have a ton of bows done- Speaking of which, Brooke I'll post you some links if you're still interested. I decided maybe it'd be a good idea to sell them in sets rather than one at a time? I dunno. I never see anything like that listed....and being the girly freak Mom I am, I'd rather get a set than just one *shrugs* so I figure its worth a shot. Besides.....the small ones I've done for two sets are really cute I think lol.
In other news.....I ran with Jason last night. I'm still alive obviously lol *rolls eyes*. I think I did pretty good for not having ran at all in like.....a good 4 years if not more, I guess. If one can ever call running good that is. He kept trying to talk to me in miles the night before last....like "You know that bank right by Dillons? That would be about a mile...."- Psh. Are you kidding me?!? That's also ACROSS TOWN from our house yo. Yeah right! That's never gonna happen. So we ran my driveway rather than miles thank you very much lol;) A walk/run thing since yours truly hasn't done anything like that in forever....and apparently he didn't want to be responsible for me keeling over and dying at the end of things. It was a "okay- from here to that third driveway on the left" kind of a thing lol. We probably looked like jackasses, but oh well. I did it. That's good *shrugs*. I totally deserve a present. But I'm pretty sure when I suggest just that, Jason will say yeah....a new pair of running shoes *rolls eyes*. And that's not really my idea of a present. However....I'm pretty sure now that he's probably right. I'm really not at all as sore as I figured I would be. But my ankles are sore....and they were slightly in pain by the time we were almost back home anyhow- as is the lower part of my shins (and I had shin splints BAD when Nicolle and I first started doing that years back.....I do NOT wanna deal with that again....I won't keep doing it if it were to get to that point again-it sucked). That, and the worst.....one of my heels feels like there's a big ole rock under the skin when I walk- not cool. I think its just obviously bruised....but probably due to the whole hundred year old favorite Nikes I was wearing *shrugs*. Hey.....I can do foot pain from a cute pair of stilletos....but from ugly ole running shoes.....I'm not so game for that.
I think Nicolle and I are still on for a shopping trip tonight. We shall see, but hopefully. I don't really think tomorrow is an option for me....and she's got to have new shoes by Thursday for her next fitting. Who orders a dress....a wedding dress at that....that doesn't need hemmed?!? Nicolle....that's who lol. More so, who orders a wedding dress that ends up being 4 inches off the ground prior to any alterations, when you've got your fabulous, gorgeous, most perfect shoe ever, wedding shoes on with it. Yeah. They're a no go :( Which sucks....cause they're fabulous and she loves them. Its so hard to find something like that and then have to go shopping for a replacement, b/c when you find the "perfect" one first- you're still compairing everything to that. Anyhow....we've gotta get new shoes for her....and she and I are both in search of a dress for the rehersal and dinner that Friday night. We both have leg issues lol- so its proving harder than it sounds. If it's long.....it looks stupid b/c of how short I am. If it hits mid calf.....it looks stupid b/c I have huge calfs. Blah blah blah *shrugs*. Yeah....but anyhow....welcome to my day *shrugs*.
