High heels of dooooooooooooooom

Well, yesterday's meeting went relatively well, though i suffered through most of it due to my idiotic notion of wearing high heels. I decided to dress smart yet summery, and sadly my new Rocket Dog flaties (which have, for the record, torn my feet to shreds thus leaving my toes and the backs of my ankles covered in plasters) just weren't up for the job, so i had to fish through the black hole that is the shoe cupboard at high speed (i had overslept and Kate was already waiting for me down the road) for my only pair of high heels. I was then forced to run down the road and across the A140 in them (which i did without falling over or breaking my ankle). By the time we'd gotten to the meeting venue i couldnt feel the balls of my feet or my toes, other than a sharp pain in them. Foolish foolish girl, thinking i could walk in high heels. I did look very stylish though, so cant complain too much. Aside from the presentation i was largely ignored at the meeting (my presence was largely pointless and thus bordom struck so i started doodling, which earned me a slap on the wrist by one of the directors when i got back) except when people wanted drinks. At that point disaster almost struck when my heels decided to get back at me for swearing at them and caused me to trip whilst carrying hot coffee. I almost spilt it all over my boss and myself, but thankfully someone grabbed my arm and steadied me in time. Phew! The rest of the day was spent the usual way - paperwork, paperwork, evil clients and more paperwork, with a bit of banter in between. I was sooooo relieved when i got home and was able to peel the offending heels from my feet. Psy and I successfully made a sweet and sour chicken stir fry but had issues with our Ben and Jerry's for dessert as we couldnt prize the toffee crunch bits out of the vanilla ice cream. Booooo. Then we watched crap TV, had a sing-song to The Mysterious Ticking Noise (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx1XIm6q4r4< < < Clicky, tis funny), had a pillow fight (Psy poked me in the eye with her pillow), had a quick chat with Naidel, had another singsong to Buffy's Once More With Feeling (genius episode) and then fell asleep. This morning i am back on invitation-writing duty (which is actually quite relaxing), until Glen comes back from his appointment and finds some irritating job for me to do. Ahh well, at least theres food in my draw today...ooh and peanut cookies!!! :)
