somehow this random post ended up mostly about my feet
Hm. I haven't regained any fannish momentum* since returning to my humble abode. Maybe it's the heat sapping my brain... though today it's NOT over one hundred degrees for the first time in weeks.
What have I been doing instead? Peeked at my class roster online, for one thing. Technology is excessively timely; yes, school starts this month, but not yet. Thanks to the online gradebook, I already know the names of my future students. Wow. Doubtless some students will shift schedules, but it's still very impressive.
I decorated some boring shoes this week. How does one redecorate shoes? Here, have a look at some other people's decorated shoes. Fun, right? Time-consuming as well. Now to see how often I actually wear my black pumps with red heels and red flames along the sides.
Speaking of shoes... I WANT THESE ANKLE BOOTS. I don't normally even like ankle boots, but these are adorable, and they're Clarks brand, so they should fit my feet and feel comfortable.
I painted my toenails in silver chrome. Am I the only one who has horrible coordination and has to go back over any attempts at pedicures with a Q-tip and nail polish remover? Painting one's own feet: too difficult for me, apparently. (Though I've never tried painting anyone else's toenails, therefore I don't know if it's any easier.)
I started a Pinterest account today. For me it's another way to bookmark pictures of people's refashioned shoes. Heh.
Now for something completely different: someone at church actually mentioned that Book of Mormon musical this past Sunday. First time that's ever happened; I've never had a discussion about the musical with anyone, much less with someone at church. I was amused by that, since I had just posted about it two days before. (Context: New Testament Sunday school class, discussing what to do when we're offended. The woman who mentioned the musical used it as an example of something offensive to her.)
*Haven't written any on the unfinished stories that I really would like to complete. Haven't read most fanfics by other people, even though there's been a mini-resurgence in fic with characters (hah, I actually typed Karacters for a moment) I normally love. Not to mention all the unread fic from when I was traveling.
