HOT DA-YMN!!!
It is freaking hot. More than sweaty breasticles, my lovelies, I am glowing all over the shop. Wipin’ up my glow with a towel kinda hot.
It just hit 41c (105.8F) while I was driving the kids around to various sleepovers. Got the honour of meeting my bosses wife, lounging in the pool with a glass of wine lucky biatch, when I dropped Moo and her best bud off for a sleepover there tonight. She seems lovely. Apparently she has heard all about me, *snigger* but was still nice to me.
Went shopping to buy large clear plastic storage containers for the Christmas Decos (going to cull a lot. 17 boxes might be a tad excessive I do concede) and take the girls to spend their Christmas money on a game for the Wii. The girls went one way, and I went straight to the coffee place.
As you do. On a freaking stinking hot day. You buy the largest Latte you can find. With an extra shot.
While I was waiting for them to make it, my FREE coffee cause they have these little card thingy’s and your 8th one is free, I wandered over to put Lotto on.
Our little indulgence.
‘Oh!’ says the little girl that served me, all of 10 years old I reckon, ‘You have a win!’
‘Cool!’ says I, thinking this is my lucky day, might chuck a little something special in the cart at Safeway.
She calls over her mum. I know it was her mum cause she said ‘Mum, what do I do here?’
People behind me are mumbling. I am thinking, wait your turn fuckers, Mummy is getting an avocado, or maybe even TWO! Oooh, cherries would be nice…..
‘Congratulations!’ says Mum. I am thinking a lot of freaking hoo-ha for 20 bucks lady. Now hand over the cash my coffee is getting cold.
‘You have won $1125.25!’
‘I WHAT?????’ My poor little heat stroked mind is not computing.
She points to the screen that is showing the whole fucking shopping centre how much I won.
I start stammering and sweating glowing that little bit more.
‘Really? Oh. My. God!’ Any one would have thought I won 1st division the way the lady and I were carrying on.
Little girl counts out my cash and puts it in an envelope.
Yeah baby!
I spend the next 15 minutes trying to find the girls. Finally find them perusing the games in Target.
I tell them. Moo launches herself at me in excitement. My coffee goes flying.
My beautiful FREE coffee.
Then the little biatches give me a list of all the things they want.
But Mummy has other plans for this money. Oh yes, my lovelies, you KNOW what I want…..
Pity a grand will only buy one shoe. I will have to learn to hop elegantly.

Whoa! Too freaking cool! But how are you going to hop around on one stiletto? One flat I could almost imagine, but since I’m guessing that’s not the look you’d be going for ;-)…
(And is just one called a Manolo or a Blahnik anyway?)

w00t - I was going to say what Bettina said
Maybe you can buy yourself that domain & hosting “Christmas-wish-package” now

Congrats to you! I don’t think I could ever get used to having Christmas in the middle of Summer. It would seem weird not to have snow on the ground (or at least the cold weather).
Thanks for stopping by!

Congratulations! Maybe if you hit the after Christmas sales you will find shoes half price and then you can have two. I braved the crowds at Myer yesterday and bought a $90 bag for $25.
Today I hibernated, air conditioning blasting, as there was no way I was heading out in 42 heat.

Congratulations! You deserve a windfall for dealing with 105.8 weather. Youch!
December 30th, 2007 at 3:02 am

Shoes, better than sex! Enjoy!
My sister gave me a box set of “Sex in the City” for ’silly season’ and there is an episode about Carrie’s shoe lust. Couldn’t help but smile and think about you.
