Live Long and Prosper

The hubby doesn't sleep well most nights.  I can sleep through just about anything, but he tends to sleep well for the first few hours and then wakes up in the middle of the night.  Sometimes he can go back to sleep right away, other times, he breaks out the Ipad until he gets sleepy.  He always complains that he has reached the end of the internet and that's there is nothing else to read.  Silly boy.  When the internet fails him he turns to Netflix.  Lately he's been watching the original Star Trek series.  I tune in an out here and there when he watches when I'm awake, and it's been fun to re-watch the old episodes.  Gene Roddenberry was a genius.  You know I went looking, and you know there are Star Trek shoes out there.


I like these.  They're subtle.  Just the uniform colors and a tiny communicator on the side.


Not so subtle.  I find these amusing.  They're like a badly drawn Star Trek comic book.


A little better, but not much.  If I didn't know what they were going for I would never recognize Captain Kirk down there.  He looks about 15.


I like all of the colors on these.   They're simple and fun.


I do love Spock.  Although he looks more alien here than he actually did on the show.  I can only sort of do the Vulcan salute with my right hand, not at all with my left.  I also suck at logic, so I would definitely make a horrid Vulcan.

Star Fleet Academy shoes!  In blue!


Not shoes, obviously, but seriously?  This is just wrong on so many levels.

Good night, Trekkies.  Live long and prosper.

PS--2 of these pictures have already been on the blog.  Not the bra, but I'll never tell which shoes are repeats...

Star Trek

The hubby and I went to see the New Star Trek movie tonight.  I admit it, I'm a trekkie.  I've seen all the movies and all of the different series.  Now, I'm not saying I can speak Klingon or that I'd like to have a Star Trek themed wedding or anything, I just enjoy the franchise.  So today was fun.  And of course I searched for shoes.
 




 
I'm not sure I would actually wear any of them (especially not the second pair with Spock and Kirk's giant faces staring at me), except for the last pair.  I think those are kitschy and adorable.  I've got The Original and new Star Treks covered, as well as The Next Generation, but I couldn't find any shoes for Enterprise, Deep Space Nine, or Voyager.  Which is rude.  If I'm going to geek out with a post, I want to do it all the way, you know?

January

Have I mentioned lately that the Pinterest Friend is awesome?  Yesterday was Charmander's and Squirtle's  4th birthday (how many is that in dragon years, I wonder?) and she sent me this:


Heehee.  This totally makes me giggle.  The dragons would love to be able to breathe fire, I'm sure.  As Mother of Dragons, I'm very happy that they can't.
 

She also sent me this recently.  Isn't it cool?  Not as an actual shoe, but as art I think it's really pretty.  I tried to find more like this but didn't succeed, so I went to my fallback and checked out what holidays are happening today:

 

Wow, January 2nd is packed.  I love that it's both National Buffet and Cream Puff Day and Motivation and Inspiration and Personal Trainer Awareness Day.  You'll definitely need the second after the first!
 


I am amused that today is Fruitcake Toss Day.  I am also amused that doing a search for fruitcake shoes actually yielded results.
 

In honor of the holidays as well as my usual resolution to be more health conscious, blue and green tennis shoes!

National Science Fiction Day might be my favorite.  I'm feeling a little lazy, though, so will simply point you in the direction of previously done Science Fictiony posts:  Star Wars and Star Trek.  There are others, I'm sure, but again...lazy.  That, and the fact that we've been at the office again all day while the house is being shown and I've been working on the AdWords campaign, which always makes me a little loopy.  I'm lucky this post has any coherent sentences in it at all.

Now go toss some fruitcake, eat some cream puffs, work out, and watch/read some science fiction!
