Sheesh, for that much they'd better sell you the alligator too.
I just don't have any occasions to wear them. Exceptin' Jen's wedding maybe. :P
I am not sure that alligator boots will be the thing to wear. Of course I suppose that's superior to Corin's dress sense.
This is about all the Luchesse boot I can afford. Heh.
Go for it. :-D

What a bargain! You shoulda bought TWO pair! ;o)
Purty boots, but I can't take those pointy toes. My feets are too wide.
I got the yard mowed this afternoon, whilst OB commenced to pulling dead daylily leaves. He filled up a paper bag with 'em already and we still have a gazillion daylilies to de-deadleaf. LSA
Found you! I'd lost my way and had to go waaay back into my comments to find the Hobbit Hole again.
Did I miss anything?
(gotta ask - though I already know the answer...)
If you're gonna go off wandering the wilds for months at a time, you're going to miss a few mini-dramas. ;-)
Very pretty girl! Looking forward to hearing what she thinks of Gidget and Homer.
Eek!
I could see spending that on certain instruments...but footwear, even very *nice* footwear? Uhhh.
But trying 'em on could still be kinda fun!
Well, for that price they had better be soft as a baby's... uh nevermind.
Oh, and no blisters after the first wear.
And never show signs of wear - ever!
For that matter, considering $5000 would buy me something close fifty pairs of my most expensive boots (which, incidentally, are about eight years old and still get worn almost daily when it isn't hot, so 50 is wayyyyyyy more than a lifetime supply), boots that expensive better come with super powers.
Horses fed. Couple of probably minor snags. To begin with, they knocked over one of the water buckets. I filled the one that's still there, but I can figure out a way to climb through the fence if need be if that won't be enough.
While I was pondering that issue, Cyn ran over and pushed the pony aside to hog her grain, too, and wouldn't go away. I wouldn't have made a fuss, but most of the grain was still there. I kinda yelled at her, but though she stopped eating it, she still didn't move away. I finally ended up pulling the dish back out through the fence until she walked away, then gave it back to the pony and stood guard. Cyn wasn't at all pleased.
I think Bay got ticked off at me, too, for "mistreating" Cyn. He was blocking her when I left. *sigh* Poor pony. Doesn't she deserve some love, too?
Boots a tenth that expensive better come with super powers.
Evening all. Talon arrived safely. We had dinner and came back to my family's place.
I just stumbled across a new version of the three movies coming out August 29. All three movies in both formats for $16.98 on two disks each. So that's $51 for all six movies.
The big selling point is that New Line has included a new documentary on each movie. Peter Jackson hired Costas Botes to shoot a behind-the-scenes documentary showing the making of the movie. The existing features and documentaries were done by Peter and his crew, using their working materials. This documentary was done by an outsider making a movie about making the movie.
I owe it to Peter Jackson to spend more money as my way of thanking him for making the movie of the century about what was voted the novel of the century. This may also be the closest we ever get to the bloopers and outtakes Peter promised.
There is a gate, you don't have to crawl through the fence :~) They'll do fine with just the one water till tomorrow :~)
No sweat even if Cyn got all pony's grain, it's OK. Thanks!
