Mika's Excuse.

So... originally I had this entire post on shoes. And Blogspot erased THE ENTIRE THING. I'm not happy Bob. Not. Happy. Therefore, I am rewriting this in a slightly bitter fashion. And by slightly, I mean if I type any harder on my keyboard, my nails may break... and that would be tragic. But I did take a pic of every shoe I own so it did lift my spirits a little. But this article will not be as long as the last one I wrote.

I am going to start off by apologizing that I never post. Unlike Kaeli, I don't go to school but I do constantly work. Hopefully sometime in the near future, my life will slow down. I do have surgery coming up soon so I will be in bed a lot so that means a lot of down time and a lot more posting.

Recently, I went shoe shopping for the first time in roughly six months. As such, I kind of went a little crazy when I walked in Forever Young Shoes in the University Mall in Orem, Utah. I may or may not have bought... 7 pairs of shoes. Oops. But I got all of them under $100! That is like $14 dollars a pair. You. Can. Not. Resist. That. If I find out you do pass that up, I will haunt you forever cause its a crime equal in severity to kicking a puppy with two legs. At Forever Young Shoes, they have a punch card where you buy seven pairs of shoes and get one free. And they always have the clearance wall chock full of wonderful shoes, all for BOGO 1/2 off. It is literally Shoe Heaven. When I find an article of clothing that I love, I have a signature reaction that I do.
1. I gasp (a little dramatically)
2. I strike the "awkward penguin pose" (which looks like I have to pee really bad)
3. I run over to it and stroke it a little

Yeah I know its a little embarrassing looking but it is involuntary! I can't help it! And I can't buy anything without these reactions!

When I walked in this time, the sales lady greeted us in the normal fashion and then my mum and I proceeded to browse. And by browse, I mean nearly ran about the store squealing in delight. Apparently the sales lady noticed and she walked over to us. What did she say to me? "I just love watching you. You look like a little kid in a candy store! Its so cute." ..... Yeah it was a little embarrassing and I toned it down just a touch after that. But she was absolutely correct! But instead of candy, its like cocaine to me. But even though I really can't resist shoes, I never ever ever spend more than $40 dollars on shoes. And that includes boots baby cakes!

That is all I have for now! What is your favorite shoe designer or store or brand? Comments, chew outs, questions and suggestions are always welcome! Ok maybe chew outs are not always welcome but today they are because I have been slacking.

Love, Mika.

Oh! P.S.- Below are pics of some of my shoes. To see the entire collection, add me as a friend on Facebook and in the message, say you are a fan of our blog! Otherwise, I will question who you are. Safety first!






Love, Mika.
