Thank you for the kind compliment in the above post, I love you all too!
HLL probably won't talk to me after I say this but, I hate shopping for shoes too. They NEVER have my size in the pair I want. Which is usually the only pair on display I like.
That reminds me, my sis-in-law used to buy ugly shoes because she felt sorry for them, that nobody else would buy them. LOL! Even the people who marry into my family are weird.

Ja Rule, Busta Rhymes and Ashanti bring the hip to the hip hop at Level -- one of South Beach's hottest clubs -- but it's Janet Reno who club owners say will pack the house tonight.
"Tickets are selling like hotcakes," said a nearly breathless Gerry Kelly, former fashion designer turned club owner and host of tonight's "Janet Reno's Dance Party."
More than 2,000 partygoers, including a few of Republican Gov. Jeb Bush's campaign staff, are expected to show up and watch Reno hit the dance floor.
"I came up with the idea about a month ago and contacted Reno's campaign," said Kelly, who hinted that Reno might not be the only celebrity in the room tonight. "I don't want to promise anything but I think it will be a very exciting night."
Already there is a "media frenzy," Kelly said. "We get a lot of local press and some national press but this is becoming one of the most highly covered events I've ever had."
Network TV, foreign reporters, even a Denver radio station are showing up for Reno's party. One big question is whether she will wear the blue dress made famous by Saturday Night Live actor Will Ferrell, who dressed like Reno for an ongoing skit called "Janet Reno's Dance Party." [well you know you're a lesbian when people wonder this sorta thing]
"We just have to wait and see what she does," Reno spokeswoman Nicole Harburger said. "We think the whole night is going to be a lot of fun and give Janet a chance to bring some young people into the political process."
Tickets cost $25 with the money going to Reno's campaign. Reno is being challenged for the Democratic nomination by Tampa attorney Bill McBride and state Sen. Daryl Jones of Miami.
