Shoe Fetish?

I've never liked to admit to anyone, especially myself that I actually have girly tendencies. I've always been able to get along better with the boys, maybe it has something to do with the lack of competition, or the fact that I really don't like to talk about make-up and hair dos... either way I don't claim "girly-girl" status. However, I have found that even though I'm not a "girly-girl" I am indeed, still a woman with a love of shoes!!!!


Here are my new favorites that I just have to have:
The 5.10 Prodigy:




(from fiveten.com: Versatility and unmatched performance make this shoe stand out in a crowd. The Prodigy excels on the trail but can take on terrain other shoes can't. Lace to toe styling, high-friction Stealth C4/S1 co-molded outsoles, waterproof split-leather uppers and protective toe rands combine to deliver exceptional performance and durability in this good looking multi-sport model.)

(commentary from Tricia: OMG they are so friggin cute!!!)



The SCARPA ZG-65-GTX:


Funky Fresh!!!





This is to supplement the 4, read: FOUR, pair of Chacos that I have, (two pair of Z2, a ZX1 diamond steath sole and a pair of hipthongs respectively). And I pride myself on not having 100 pair of shoes in my closet... I have 20 pair of shoes! that's absurd!



Now, on top of my shoe fetish I have also come to the conclusion that I also have a bag fetish. Note, this is not a PURSE fetish, as I have one Kavu teeny tiny little purse that holds a wallet, but I'm talking BAGs. I love backpacks, satchels, totes, even large suitcases. I love to have things (namely my gear) organized and compartmentalized.



Maybe I am a girly girl after all....

two of my two favorite things have come together!

I want THIS!!! It's the Amazon Kindle. It's basically the iPod for books. You can download entire length books in under a minute and it costs less and doesn't waste all that paper on printing books. NOW, I must say that there is something very old world and sexy about having real-life books in your house, but think of all those books you buy just to read one time and never look at again... I think that everyone should have a collection of classics, (hardbacks) but the silly ones that you read just for entertainment (and half the time pretend you didn't read it) those are perfect for the Amazon. I wonder how well it does on sand???

NY Times Bestsellers and new releases are usually in the $9.99 range versus up to $30 for a new hardback! AND you don't have to connect to a computer or hardrive or modem or anything, it's wireless! on sale now for $350! and don't worry, for all of you who have to get your daily dose of news, you can have 100's of newspapers and blogs updated automatically. It will hold up to 200 full length books, and you can add more space to it if you need.

Okay, I'm back to check out Amazon.com for a book I was searching for (Rock Warrior's Way) when I got distracted by the shiny new piece of technology.
