Motivation

I never considered just what a huge motivating factor extra credit can be. Because two professors offerred extra credit to students who participate in my research, I now have nearly 70 additional participants for my dissertation study. Bonus!

I also am dissappointed in a conversation that I had today. Someone belly laughed, I mean...literally belly laughed, at the idea that someone who crticizes American foreign policy and supports the legalization of marijuana could be a true Christian. Made me so upset, that this person didn't stop to get to know me enough that he was questioning the veracity of my belief. I just really didn't think anyone could be so limited and closed off.

I ordered shoes to go with my suit that I will wear on internship interviews (still wishful thinking, I haven't heardy ANYTHING from any sites, good or bad). Here they are...all purple and fun! Yay!

Important Skills to Learn Before Having Children

Can someone please explain children's shoe sizes to me? The hubs and I were buying shoes today for a thing at church, and we hemmed and hawed over shoe sizes, because between two college grads we couldn't figure much out. So we picked four pairs that "looked" like they would fit a kid in elementary school. Help me? Please?

Material Girl

I went shopping today. Please leave all the lame "when your husband is out of town, you go shopping" remarks in your head and not on my blog.

My questions is this: (I assume I'm talking to the ladies, but you never know.) What does one wear with Knee-high black leather boots with heels? I know they'll work with my really long denim skirt and a sweater. But how do I venture into the world of reasonably short skirts with knee high boots and still look more like a therapist than a street walker? Since I got that tattoo, I guess I really have to watch myself. ;)

Advice, please give.
