You paid what for those shoes?@!#^

Divine Intervention Ladies! Holy Manolo, I had an amazing day today. Why? I have no idea. I have been in this friggen rut, always concerning myself with my next 'man move', or what is the ex doing right now - that I haven't lived 24 hours just for me. JUST ME, All me, "Sorry can't help you it's Elle-Day, didjya get the memo? Ciao!"

I wanna play a little game of truth or dare. Only you have to pick dare, and PLEASE believe me it will be so worth it.

Step 1: Pick a day that you know involves no commitments, appointments, plans, whatever! And if you don't remember what a day without SOMETHING dire occupying all of your energey is like (I am deeply sorry for the amount of responsibility on your shoulders, still try it!!!)

Step 2: Love the shit out of yourself. I swear I'm done feeling stressed out! Booooooo! Whiners = Lame! Suck it up, it is YOUR life and rock the hell out of it.

Step 3: Reflect.

I arose in a sun beam, the scent of my scented candles still lurking amongst the air, in the cleanest, most white tshirt and panties with a smile on my face, ready to kick the morning's ass really hard.

(What Actually Happened - I woke up sleeping on my cell phone with a miserable back ache and let's just say I had the bed head of a young college slut *graphic?* sorry)

But hey, TODAY IS ELLE-DAY! HOOOOOOORAY! The crick in my back (I feel old!) will only help me to have that 'Beyonce swag'. SERIOUSLY. Limping can be sexy girls, it's all about how you work it!!

At lunch, what did I do? BYE GUYS- I have things. LOL Treated myself to the freshest most delicious veggie sushi and bought a pair of... drum roll please!! ....

HI.




My name is Elle and I can't afford them. But ...
I bought them.


Why, because today is Elle's day.


(The leisure in my tone and the state of my mind's sanity is very calm. I cannot promise I will be so calm tomorrow.)

So before I do something crazy, I need MANOLO SUPPORT! Calling all shoe lovers! Please, pat my back and tell me it's going to be okay. It was worth it, don't cry when you get your bank statement.

I need.... The Stiletto Mafia.

First of all this is probably the best post exsisting in the blogsphere. Second of all, you can't take that money you spent on the shoes with you to heaven, ok? But when you go girl, you're going in style with those babies!
