sleeping standing up

Just a quick post today since it's a holiday and we have company....

I just wanted to tell you a quick Mac story....
I have a lot of Mac stories....I could fill a whole blog just with Mac stories.

For those of you who don't know, Mac is my 15 y/o daughter....who is going on 30

she has been going on 30 since she was 2....
Mac is....um....Mac!

She is full of life, very quick witted, and a joy to be around...most of the time (she is a teenager after all)

She is the only person I know who can go to a baseball game one night knowing only one person, and by the end of the evening meet a bunch of people and have one couple (my age) decide that their teenage son just HAS to marry her (it happened a couple days ago....really)

Mac is very girlie, girl (so unlike me). She loves make up, clothes, shopping, and these....

Mac got these little hotties for a going away present.

Mac loves shoes! She would spent every penny she earns on shoes. I feel so sorry for her future hubby....

remember, you can click on the pictures to make em bigger....I know you're dying to see the shoes up close!

She has decided that she just has to wear her new purple heals on a shopping trip that she is going to take in Chicago in a few weeks. I think she is delusional....there is NO way she will be able to walk for miles and miles in those shoes!

So Mac has decided she is going to "break them in". She has been wearing them around the house constantly the past couple of days. Yesterday, while I was working in the kitchen, she came in and started chatting with me while I worked....here's a portion of our conversation....

Mac: "My shoes aren't breaking in fast enough"

Me: "Maybe it's because they cost $7 and they aren't meant to be worn shopping in Chicago"

Mac: "I'll break em in. I'm gonna start sleeping in them"

Me: "I don't think it works that way"

Mac: "Then I'll sleep standing up"

I'm sure she will figure out a way. She is already influencing our company for the weekend....a future generation of shoe lovers....
