And truthfully, I'm surprised he didn't see me coming out of the corner of his eye, as to compensate for the gloom and doom that is this week for me at work (thanks to the House and Senate both, um, doing their jobs and actually marking up a few bills -- trust me, I'm as surprised as you!), I decided to wear the brightest, sunniest, most cheery yellow tight pants I own:
Happy fun sunshine time, heyyy!
Yeah, those are zippers at the ankles, indeed! But let's move on to the footwear. Gladiator sandals are all the rage this season, and I'd been looking for metallic ones for quite some time, however, the only pair (until now) that I had truly liked were upwards of $330 (scroll down to see the Helena in graphite). Yeah.
Luckily, last Friday, when I was picking up a few last minute travel items at Bed, Bath and Beyond (their travel section is AMAZING), I decided to stop by the Marshall's located just beneath it in the DC USA shopping complex in Columbia Heights. Lo and behold, amid all the schlock and rows of flip-flops (ugh), I found the pair pictured here for just $25.
Note to self: Stop over-boozing. My shakes are not helping my photog skills, clearly.
They came in pewter (pictured, um, sorta) and bronze. (For a better image, check out them out here.) If you want a pair, I suggest you hit that sh*t up now, as this was the only decent-looking shoe in the bunch, I won't lie (I'm not a fan of that Marshalls...), and with a discount of over 50 percent, it's kind of an unbeatable deal. They run super big, however, so you're probably going to want to size down. And lastly, they actually seem pretty well made so when I have to kick a cab driver in the teeth for trying to rip me off or a driver in the throat for yelling at me after he hit me, I think these would hold up just fine. Afterall, the Goose of Justice can't always be around to help you out of a jam.

Hot pants! Love the yellow.
You look like lemon ice.
You should wear a sword too.

And lemon ice is delicious and refreshing.

Like a samurai sword or more like a medieval-type sword? Or mayhaps I should take it to the former Soviet-bloc and go for the straight up kinjal?
um, you look like an asshole.
Why, thank you, The Internet! I'm glad you took some time out of your busy schedule of, you know, being The Internet to read my blog!
See you around, e-friend!
I had no idea the Internet had time for you, what with all the nun porn and social networking going on! Neat.
The Internet and I have a very turbulent relationship. Once in a while I just want to say I'll e-see you in hell to it. The Internet, after all, is a fickle bitch...you know, regarding connectivity.
good Job! :)
