ugg-ly.

yes. my birthday was ugly in more ways than one....
the pipes freaking froze again. expletive, expletive, expletive. only the hot pipe this time.
so nick and i were stuck at home all day wondering when the darn hot water would work again... if i would be able to shower on my birthday. the answer. nope. water didn't come on until about 5:30 this morning. thank goodness, because i wouldn't have been able to hand a bird bath and then have to go to work. have to work out messing with the insulation. think our builders really skimped on the darn stuff. have to figure out how to put some above our garage as well. must be done before kidlets or we'll wake up one day with a babysicle. dude, that sound bad. but you know what i'm meaning...
the good ugg. i got some new boots.
have never been a fan of uggs. thought they were just some celebrity hyped shoe. but then i saw these uber cute ones. do i, or don't i? i've read blogs and articles. heard mixed reviews. i mean they are ugly. but i think this might qualify as cute ugly. and you so know what i mean.


can i say they are the comfiest, warmest boots ever. not waterproof. need to investigate if ugg makes some of those.... but still, my toes are toasty even in this -10 degree weather... and i'm not even wearing socks. pure boot action. nice!
and i even got them in this crazy rose/raisin color. i'm normally a brown/grey/black girl. but i thought these should be different. who knows. midlife crisis at 29? i dunno.
they were a complete pain in the arse to hunt down. sold out everywhere. and i don't see them from the website i got them from... so glad i didn't procrastinate any longer. i know my toes thank me too! ;o)
