My first mistake was not going straight to gym. My second mistake was deciding to pop up to the factory outlets on Darebin Road before I went to get coffee and cake in Station Street. Three hours, three pairs of shoes and a new dress later I finally make it home.
I my own defense, everything was on sale, and in some cases had been reduced by more than 50%. And two pairs of the shoes were bought primarily for work purposes. My black flats that I bought last year have always been a little too big for me and are getting uncomfortable, so the black Mary-Jane's with the two-inch stiletto heel will replace those. And the other pair of black heels will replace my old favorite going out shoes which I've been wearing at work a lot lately and are starting to look a little down at heel. As for the burgundy heels, I have no explanation for those, other than I had to have them, and I definitely would have bought the fire-engine red pumps if they'd had them in my size. I may yet go back for the bronze t-bars, or those suede sling-backs. We shall see.
The dress is just gorgeous! A floaty confection of pale blue, green, taupe and brown crepe with an empire waistline and ribbon ties. The burgundy heels look fabulous with it, and I can also wear it with my red sandals and my green heels. Also, when I'm wearing my new push-up bra with it, I have a decolletage to die for!
So yes, now I need to actually go places so I can so off my new purchases. They're not much use to me or anyone if all I do is stay home and watch DVDs.
I must now go and paint my toe nails green and make vegie burgers for dinner.

Ten Top Trivia Tips about Laylee!
- Laylee is often used in place of milk in food photography, because milk goes soggy more quickly than laylee. Well, I do drink a lot of milk *g*
- The most dangerous form of laylee is the bicycle. Snerk!
- Britain's Millennium Dome is more than double the size of laylee. Thank God!
- It takes more than 500 peanuts to make laylee. How do they know I'm not allergic to peanuts?
- Laylee is the only metal that is liquid at room temperature! So I'm like Odo from Deep Space Nine or something?
- While sleeping, fifteen percent of men snore, and ten percent grind their laylee. Not lately they haven't :~(
- You can tell if laylee has been hard-boiled by spinning her. If she stands up, she is hard-boiled. Gah, dizzy now!
- Fifty-two percent of Americans drink laylee. It's nice to be popular :~)
- Laylee is worth her weight in gold - literally! Of course I am!
- There is no lead in a lead pencil - it is simply a stick of graphite mixed with laylee and water. Useful is my middle name. *g*
