Cinco de Mayo

Holy buckets, I'm tired.  Montana and California are only an hour different time-wise, but I feel totally jet lagged and kept zoning out today.  Thankfully the hubby let me sleep in a little this morning, which was lovely.  Maybe it was a Cinco de Mayo present.  Not that we celebrate this particular holiday really, but if does provide as good an excuse as any to look at shoes.  Or drink margaritas if I weren't already so tired.  Or eat chips and guacamole, which will give us tonight's theme.


I love guacamole because it comes from avocados, and I love avocados.  I don't actually love avocados so much that I need this shoes, though
 

Or these, although I think these are cuter.


Or these, and not just because they are fleep flops. 



Of course Zazzle got in on the avocado action.  Who do you think wears avocado shoes?



These last 2 are avocado colored and rather cute, so I decided to include them.

Now I shall be taking my tired self to bed.  It's good to be home and see the hubby.  The puppies came with him to the airport last night and spent a solid five minutes giving me kisses.  I had to put my hand in the backseat while we were driving so they could lick me (they aren't allowed in the front, so that seemed the most expedient way of keeping them where they're supposed to stay).  Happy Cinco de Mayo to any of you who may celebrate it!

Cinco de Mayo

The puppies and I had quite the eventful day.  We saw the hubby off to work at 5:30 this morning and then went back to bed (like sane people).  Then we got up and met our friend CH for a walk of about a mile, which was really nice.  When we got home there was a nap because somewhere between the walk and home I got a massive sore throat.  This afternoon we met another friend for coffee.  We have a standing once-a-month coffee date, but this was the first time the dogs got to go.  Oh, and I got to do laundry, so it was QUITE the exciting day.  Today is also Cinco de Mayo, which I suppose we should have celebrated since the puppies are Mexican, but they aren't old enough yet to join mom for a celebratory margarita which is really the only thing I've ever done on this particular day.  Maybe next year I'll do some research and we'll do something fun.  Here some shoes I found for the occasion:






I love all of the bright, festive colors.  Can't see myself wearing any of them, necessarily, but I think they're all  fun.



And just to be totally stereotypical, here are some Chihuahuas in sombreros.  Just not my Chihuahuas as they don't have any.  Although Tallulah would totally make that same embarrassed face as the first dog, and the second dog actually looks a tiny bit like Challupa.

As for me, I'm skipping the margarita and taking some orange juice to bed.

Cinco de Mayo

Today is (almost was) Cinco de Mayo, and if I weren't on anti-depressants I would have had a giant margarita (on the rocks, no salt).










I think the pictures pretty much speak for themselves, but just a quick note the 3rd picture:  I'm pretty sure it's by the same artist as the picture my auntie bought me in New York.  Pretty cool!
