Paris Boots

As you know, I am not a fashion plate. When I was in Paris, I really dug these tall boots that the women tended to wear with trench coats. I need to get a new long coat too (Mine is shapeless and circa 1992ish). They wore the wool coats that are belted, but have shape like a skirt. I am sure that you can not really picture what I mean about it, but maybe I could find a coat like it here. Anyways, the boots were tall, with flat soles, but not clunky lookin'. I like things I can walk in, you know what I mean. So with great delight, I found a pair at the mall today when I was momentarily distracted (getting a birthday present for one of my kiddos). I saw a pair of Paris boots in Paris for 250 Euro, but 100 dollars was much easier to swallow (on sale). Who thought Paris boots could be found in White Plains? I have been scanning boots for them for a couple of weeks. The only other pair I found were on sale for $400 which is way too steep for this cheap bastard. Now I need a good excuse to wear them. I do not think they would work for my job. Hey, I am going to the city on Saturday, and that is perfect!

I watched American Chopper tonight (half of it when I remembered), because they were doing a bike for Mott Children's Hospital. Of course those losers did not reveal the bike on the episode. Now I have to figure out when it will be on again!!!!
