Army Green & Layers For Fall
I got nothing.
Yes, army green is great, yes it acts like a neutral, yes anyone can wear it, blah blah blah.
The fact of the matter is when I put this outfit together I really liked it. It made me feel good about myself.
After the terrorist attacks fashion seems so superficial, so irrelevant.
This proverb resonated with me so I thought I’d share it.
An aging master grew tired of his apprentice’s complaints. One morning, he sent him to get some salt. When the apprentice returned, the master told him to mix a handful of salt in a glass of water and then drink it. “How does it taste?” the master asked.
“Bitter,” said the apprentice.
The master chuckled and then asked the young man to take the same handful of salt and put it in the lake.
The two walked in silence to the nearby lake and once the apprentice swirled his handful of salt in the water, the old man said, “Now drink from the lake.”
As the water dripped down the young man’s chin, the master asked, “How does it taste?”
“Fresh,” remarked the apprentice.
“Do you taste the salt?” asked the master.
“No,” said the young man.
At this the master sat beside this serious young man, and explained softly,
“The pain of life is pure salt; no more, no less. The amount of pain in life remains exactly the same. However, the amount of bitterness we taste depends on the container we put the pain in. So when you are in pain, the only thing you can do is to enlarge your sense of things. Stop being a glass. Become a lake.”

Over The Knee Boots And A Pug
I broke down and bought a pair of over the knee boots in black.
At first I thought they were going to make my legs look even shorter than they are because these don’t really have much of a heel, but I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised.
The boots I originally wanted are these but I checked my numbers and I didn’t win the lottery.
Damn!
As much deserved compensation for not winning the lottery I went and bought myself these boots at TJ Maxx.
They’ve been getting lots of wear the last few days. They are perfect for all the rain we’ve been getting. It is like wearing fancy waders. No worries about puddle splashes when your boots come up to your thighs.
I just tried to look up some images of waders for you and some really twisted photos came up. Apparently they are a fetish thing. WT…?
And not just half naked women in waders folks.
Nope.
There is a much older man that has an entire website devoted to himself and his numerous pairs of coloured waders and ahem..cough, cough… paraphernalia. I am not going to subject you to those images. I alone will suffer the nightmares.
How do you get rid of images you’d rather not have seen? Someone needs to make a “clean-out-your-brain-from-images-you-stumbled-across-online-by-accident” app. It would be full of pure, sweet images…puppies, kittens, babies giggling.
Okay…I need to take a brief break to visually scrub my brain with some some baby pugs.
Whew…okay…I’m back.
Feeling better : )
Just me and my pug. No weirdness here.
Sorry about that internet freaks.
