Hope Ammen
A lot of rich people spend a lot of money on a lot of ugly things. Now if f I was a millionaire, I think I would buy only beautiful things. I am not a millionaire. However, there is a satisfaction in simply finding beautiful things. It's nearly as fun as having them. Just less expensive. So rather than filling my shopping cart with all these beautiful things, I will simply put them in Her Octopus Garden.

Birthdays are a grand excuse to buy things...

My birthday is just a few weeks away (make thaaat 19 days). Therefore, the birthday wish-list is steadily compiling. And on that list, iiiis. most assuredly. another pair of TOMS. The harder question is which oneeeeees!?

First of all, I am in LOVE with this color. So pretty, especially for fall. However, they arrreee a lot like the red ones that I already have. So...

...I think I might be liking these instead. Different style then my red ones, super comfy, and they would go with a lot.

But then, who am I kidding? These would be so cool! I can't say that I've seen many people with them, so they're a little bit more original, and they would be fantastic for the fall. A nice rugged touch I'd say...

Man.
This is tough business!
Good thing I've got 2 more weeks.

p.s. also on my wish list is a bike. to ride with my Toms on :) I rode a bike on campus for the first time today and it felt so liberating to be riding again. Nothing frees the soul like a good bike ride. So I obviously need...uhh, a bike. and Toms.
