• 08:38 RT @danphilpott - Introduced my wife to the show Deadliest Warrior. It was a little frightening the enthusiasm with which she enjoyed it.
• 08:39 What?! #deadliestwarrior and the like = safe outlet for my inner Klingon. That, and fencing.
• 08:40 Also via @danphilpott: NIH Improbable Research: www.ncbirofl.com/ . Hours of amusement!
• 08:41 I love that they didn't allow the non-existence of vampires to get in the way of research about vamps vs. garlic :P #ncbirofl
• 08:41 Especially since everyone knows vampires hate garlic but love bloomin' onions.
• 08:41 OK, really - need to eat my oatmeal and go to work.
• 09:35 Have been wearing so many orthopedic bandages/splints of late I feel like a mummy embalmed in Icy Hot. Must MUST attempt to rest this wknd.

I have enough new things for fall. Really.

But, I do like to look.

TopShop is calling this an "eyelet denim jacket", but let's be honest: this is a biker doublet. That's so cool, let's say it again: biker doublet.

I emphatically don't need a pair of black granny boots. I have a PVC pair I seldom wear, but I LOVE having a pair just in case because they cover the spectrum between stuffy and sexy, everyday and costume so well!

Heeled oxfords, suede and patent. Just the perfect combination of sensible sophistication and sleek style. Besides, very 1940s/Kate Hepburn. And, being Clarks, the heels on these might not even be that uncomfortable.
