   Knew you folks would love it.

   Apologies to readers expecting serious academic stuff (and to blokes). But we all need superficiality and shiny pretty things sometimes.

   Not that I could actually a) afford or b) walk in most of the shoes pictured.

   Chris he say – blokes need superficiality and shiny pretty things too, goddammit. Luckily I’m too poor to have to agonise over which nice shoes to buy. Bad news is, the last Doc factory in England has closed, and with it, its cheapo outlet. Arrrrghh!

   That *is* very bad news.

   I think we’re all too poor to do anything except look, if that makes you feel better.

   Yes, but the brown Anne Kleins are nice and under one hundred of the dollars! Of course, I got my mock snake BCBG open-toed brown pumps at Ross for $29

   Ah, the sales. Sharon says, the sales they are life savers.

   Ah, says the ADM, she has forgotten that the Sharon has not the Ross. The Ross (Dress for Less) is the lovely thing. The ADM, she must always try the Ross first, because the Ross, it has the remainders and the lovely things from the season before. And sometimes the semi-pricey shoes for the little money. But the ROss, she will never have the Manolos. For the Manolos, one must watch the sales. For the Charles Jourdan and Stuart Weizman, for the Amalfi and the other lesser lovelies, we must try the Nordstrom Rack, where all the old Nordstrom clothes go to die or be bought by unsuspecting ADMs

    Sharon is now extremely jealous of the Ross.

    (If we all start talking like this, will people think we’re nuts? And is that a bad thing?)
