Love's in the air.

So yeah, there I was, feeling smug, in a very ang-haba-ng-hair-ko-lolah way, thinking that I just had the best Valentines ever when my sister called and totally trumped me up... SHE'S GETTING MARRIED!!!

But that's not to say that I didn't have the best Valentines ever :0)

The dozen red roses I was kinda expecting and that, I got.

I was also expecting sushi-to-go and probably a quiet night of American Idol and Criminal Minds. Instead, I got this:



Balloons, confetti, streamers, love songs. The whole shebang.

And this:



A candlelit dinner.

And this, too.



Just in case you missed that, yeah, I got another dozen roses, but really, I was talking about this:



My very own Ipod shuffle. In a very fashionable copper tone.

Sigh. My husband just keeps on raising the bar (sorry, cingular).

No wonder I love my husband more than I love shoes (wonderful, wonderful shoes!).

:0D

Project Shoe Design

Mr. A has been bugging me to retire my trusty red LA Gears for a couple of months now. I told him I would once I see something worth trading it for. So I've looked and looked and looked but nothing was calling out to me. I'd rather have old, ratty shoes that I love than spanking new ones that are totally not me. (Yup, I take shoe shopping seriously hehe :0D).

In desperation (I think), Mr. A showed me this website. He was playing around with it, trying to come up with a pair that will speak to me. He showed me his design, I fiddled around with it and came up with something nice. Then I totally forgot about it.

Fast forward to 3 weeks later -- Mr. A surprised me with my very own Nike Leahs. (I didn't even know you can have your name on them hehe :0P). My husband is the best :0)

Needless to say, my LA Gears are now out of the picture while my Nikes and I are getting to know each other really well training for the half marathon.
