I finally got my paint for the car! And I got my black sandals cut down so they fit my feet better! Okay, it's not a perfect job, there's a bit of a corner, but it took the shoe repair guy like 2 minutes and he charged me $4, and now I don't have a mile of sole sticking out in front and behind my feet. So, Yay! :) I can probably sand off that bit of a corner easily if I want to bother. Now I know that a razor knife is NOT the way to go with these foam sandal soles - he said a power sander was the thing to use.

And now that I know where the shoe shop is I'll probably go back with other things. I can't believe it's taken me so long to get around to finding a shoe repair shop. I need to make a list of things a small town needs, so that if I ever get around to building my own town I'll be able to plan in everything. (Okay, I probably won't be able to build my own town for real, but maybe I can write about a town. ;))

Help me out, here, what do we need? The perfect town to live in would have what?

- General Store
- Shoe Repair
- Seamstress/Tailor for alterations on clothes.
- Coffee/Tea hangout
- Breakfast all-day restaurant (Open 24-hours, per [livejournal.com profile] ladyfalcon.)
- Dancing
- Public transit
editing the list to add your suggestions and some commentary )
Tilley hats, Doc Martin wingtips - I can't really wear them together, can I? )

Honestly, though, I never would wear them together, as the hats fall in the category of 'Day Wear' while the wingtip shoes are what I call 'Evening Wear.' :) 

And, completely unrelated - I've been meaning to post this for two days, and I'd better do it before I forget it all.

silly work story )

Now I'm at this point.  Post this, or let it sit and possibly add more too it, making it even more of a monster?  Hmmmm.  *procrastinates by checking her email*

BTW, if anyone has a better reference site than the Key to English Place Names, toss it my way.  writing rambling )

(edited to get rid of the Tilley links that wouldn't work right. They won't let me link directly to the pictures of the hats I want. Bah! That was half of my point with making this post. http://www.tilley.com/ They have different colors (or colours) available on the sites for different countries. How dumb is that?)
