Your Mom Wears Combat Boots!


I thought my opening song was appropriate for this latest post.

You know how they say, "the sqeaky wheel gets the grease"? Well... I have a new one for you, "the bitchy woman gets her Combat Boots!" Oh Danila, thank you for your comments on my previous boot related post, I think it may have had an effect on Matt's opinion of old ladies like me wearing them.

Matt took Riley shopping for shoes Saturday and came home with a pair of Zombie Stompin' Combat Boots! He had Riley wear them into the house and pretend they were hers. I think she's a little disgruntled because she wanted to share them, but since they are 9's and she's only a 4, I'm saying no.

Of course I tried them on immediately. Dani, Ethan, Arianne & Troy were there and I could tell they were all secretly jealous. It was very hard to see but I can spot that Combat Boot Hunger in a person's eyes. I've often seen it in Catherine's eyes, though I doubt she'll admit it. Hey Catherine... you could stomp some wolves in these... I'm just saying...

Well they felt just kick butt awesome! And they looked sublime, though the effect may have been ruined a little since I was wearing capris at the time. I threatened to wear them to church the next day but I don't think Matt believed me... he did look a tiny bit scared though.

Now I just have to keep an eye on Riley, she keeps trying on the "Lara Croft" boots and begging to either wear them, or have some of her own. Hmmm... maybe if I can convince her they are for stomping boys who get too fresh....
Next step... the 20 eye boot that comes all the way up your calf!

AWESOME!!! You go girl! hehe.

So glad the comment helped! And remember you're only as old as you think, or act. So in my case I'm still 18.
