Twitter?

Twitter! I must admit that I have been drawn in to the world of twitter. I seem to post things there that I dare not post on my facebook account, and it makes me seem like quite an interesting person. Oh yes, I know. I AM an interesting person. ;)


Anyway, I mentioned that I have been purchasing things online. Mainly because I cant seem to find them around and also have been quite lacking on free time lately with the silly season and all the catch ups that go with it. I havent really bought that much (mostly presents) but the most exciting package came today. New shoes!! Now, I am quite strange in the fact that I dont wear heels. I figure at 173cm I am tall enough and I also have just never really been interested. I do love shoes though, and usually have a tough time finding a funky, comfy pair. I have seen these around in various forms and various brands, but when I found one on sale I had to get it. Now, I never usually buy things without trying them on as I am so picky... but this time I did. And I was lucky.
They are the perfect shoes!!
To show some xmas spirit I will give you the link if you want to buy them.
I have also been getting into the style of susie bubble (her 'style bubble' blog is in my list).
Happy shopping!!

tribal

This story was incredible. If you missed it, here's the basis.
A plane flies over an undiscovered tribe, they are walking about and doing normal things.
20 mins later the plane returns and the tribe have painted themselves
bright red and are aiming bows and arrows at the plane.
The Daily Mail reported the tribsemen responded with aggression to the
aircraft flying overhead:
"Skin painted bright red, heads partially shaved, arrows drawn back in the
longbows and aimed square at the aircraft buzzing overhead.
The gesture is unmistakable: Stay Away," the report said.
"Behind the two men stands another figure, possibly a woman,
her stance also seemingly defiant. Her skin painted dark, nearly black.
"The apparent aggression shown by these people is quite understandable.
For they are members of one of Earth's last uncontacted tribes, who live in the
Envira region in the thick rainforest along the Brazilian-Peruvian frontier.
"Thought never to have had any contact with the outside world, everything about
these people is, and hopefully will remain, a mystery."
