• Today's shoes:

Put on your red shoes dance

Yes, today is the first day of the rest of my life.  I don't care if I sound like a self-help book.  I am strong.  I can do anything I want.  I will overcome all minor emotional pitfalls in my life.  If clothes are a reflection of, um, anything about a person, then today I look like a rockstar: black pintuck blouse; dark, fitted straight-leg jeans; the shoes the shoes the shoes; delicate, sparkly jewelry; knee-length, spring weight, black coat.  Of course my hair is is a little windswept and I suspect it doesn't look intentional (it wasn't), but that's fixable.  Besides everyone will be looking at my awesome shoes anyway.  These are the shoes of a girl about to take over the world.

• Winter, and it's cold, wet, dankness
• Dumb boys who should know better
• Having my heartbroken and then having it repeatedly thrown in my face
• Working all the time and still being poor
• Being grossly underemployed

• Having the best girl friends in the world
• The joy I find in the beauty of my own artistic creations
• Cute boys who call when they should
• Having things to look forward too, even if they are small
• Budding early spring flowers

• Charming older men who flirt with me without expectations
• New shoes
• Having my hair look awesome when I wasn't even trying
