I'm Either a Dork or Color Blind

I've been continuing on my crocheting streak.  I honestly think it's the one thing that is keeping me sane right now, so I apologize to any of you who receive something crocheted that you would rather not have gotten.  Please feel free to give it to Goodwill or something.  Here is the latest:


Gray and pink baby afghan for a family from St. Someone's who recently had a 3rd daughter.

Here's why I'm a color blind dork.  Actually, I'm a dork with a faulty memory, because I kept thinking this was brown and pink.  So I found brown and pink shoes for this post.  And you're getting brown and pink shoes regardless of the gray and pink afghan.  Because I am stubborn.



Because how cute are these?  Very classy.



And these?  I want these for the canvas shoe collection, and I'm not even a huge pink fan.


These I don't like as well as the previous ones, but they're still cute.


I love this fabric.  I wish it wasn't quite such a strange looking wedge, but maybe it's cuter on?


Awwww...little girl shoes!



These are so simple, and I love the little splash of color from the bow.



These are sweet, but I can't imagine they would actually stay on a baby's kicking feet.



Love this too, but it's a little too much pink for me.


The hubby looks really good in pink.  Clearly he needs these.


And then I could wear these!  How cute would we be?

Please excuse my obsessive crocheting and my faulty-memory-color-blind-dorkiness.

Spectators

Absolutely nothing happened today.  OK, that's not true.  When my nieces say they're doing nothing, I always ask them if they are breathing, blinking, sitting, standing, etc.  Of course stuff happened today.  There was breathing and reading and feeding puppies and giving dragons a bath and some errands; all of the usual stuff.  But nothing really blog-worthy.  So, skip the boring day and move straight to the shoes.  Lets talk about spectator shoes.  I mentioned recently how much I liked them, but I've never actually done a post on them.  Let's look, shall we?


Kind of an Oxford, kind of not.  I like the cutouts, though, they add some fun visual interest.  And you can't go wrong with classic black and white.
 

T-straps!  Love the details of the bow and the buttons.


Love the blue, like the brown, not sure about the fringy stuff on the red.  I think I would like it if that stuff wasn't there.  I like that they put the purple bow with the red accent.


Yes.  Please.  Someone PLEASE invent a replicator like on Star Trek so I can just order up shoes   whenever I want.  Oh, and a teleporter while you're at it.  Thanks, you're the best.


The shoe itself is just OK, but I love the turquoise brocade.


Green peeps, what do you think?  I like the color of the green, but not so sure about the shoes overall.
 

Yes.  A million times yes.  Be still my heart, I think I just had a shoegasm.

Oh, so one thing that happened today was the inevitable wasting time on Facebook.  I took a quiz to tell me what career I should really have.  How they know in 10 questions is up for debate, but it's an internet quiz, not like I was actually going for discernment purposes.  Anyhoo, the quiz said I should be a writer.  I've always kind of sort of not so secretly but also secretly wanted to write children's books, but I really don't think of myself as a writer.  The PF pointed out that I WRITE a blog, so I was already writing.  Maybe.  Maybe not.  For now I shall stick with my current job of puppy snuggling, even though it makes my nose and eyes itch.
