Follow Through.

I am guilty of talking the talk, but not (trying to get out of) walking the walk.

My big mouth has gotten me into trouble on numerous occasions.

For example, many years ago I was bigmouthing to my boyfriend at the time about how I would TOTALLY go skydiving but sadly couldn't afford to do it being a poor student and all.

The next day he called, told me he had two spots booked and it was his treat.

So I had to suck it up and go.  And it was actually really fun.  Not that I would ever do it again, but not being one to learn from past mistakes, I'm pretty sure I have told that story and made it sound like I would TOTALLY go skydiving again.

So me outing myself as a hypocrite leads to this photo:

The hypocrisy is twofold.

1. I have been very vocal about how fugly Crocs are and how I would not be caught dead in them.  Enter the Mary Jane Crocs.  Still ugly, but cuter than the originals and they are like walking on clouds. 
2. When I was bigmouthing a couple of blog entries ago about how I was going to take a picture a day, learn how to better use my camera and thus deserve a new lens at the end of one month of picture taking.

So yes, I took a picture today.  Of my new ugly shoes.  To share with my yahoo girls. And now here I sit passing it off as my "photo of the day" because I'm too lazy to go take a real picture.  See how I even tried to pretty it up with a frame around it?

My hypocrisy (and sneakiness) knows no bounds.

And I'm totally okay with that.

And while we're on the subject of shoes...

Jason's broken ankle?  It was broken 10 years ago.

You know, from that OTHER time he hurt himself badly and refused to go to the doctor. 

So he's been walking around with a broken ankle bone for 10 years.  Gross huh?  And while nothing new was broken this time, he has some torn ligaments, which while not great news, is much better news than a newly broken bone.

Oh. And this happened the other night at our house:

What a great layout... I'll bet Lucas would love it framed for his new room!

So glad about GG's news... and by the way, and air cast sounds a lot like buble wrap to me. :-)

When I first saw those things...(shoes?) I also swore I would never wear them, but now that my "ultra cool" daughter is wearing them I guess I better follow the trend..probably lost 10 years of comfortable walking due to my vanity

What? Mary Jane style crocs? I need some of those.
I have the hideous bright green ones, and swore I would never wear them out of the house. But I did the other day, and it was only because they are glammed up with some of those rhinestones from the dollar store, they looked so cute on Yo's little A, that I had to get me some.
