new shoes, and job hunting

[aslant]

new shoes i bought yesterday. so comfortable! they are the first pair of high heels i have been able to wear since the surgery last summer. the scar is not pretty to me -- the line is not tight and too blurred, and i am still kind of self-conscious about it. i've definitely caught some stares in public. the hardware is not painful, but i hate how it deforms the line of my already-lumpy, short ankles.


in other news, it turns out that a job i was going to apply for today is not on a portland campus, but rather in klamath falls, a six hour drive south of here. boo hiss.

Your feet look adorable in those shoes. K-Falls isn't *that* bad, but I know you want to live in Portland. If you moved down there, you'd be near Rachie!

klamath doesn't sound too bad - i could totally live in my dream farmhouse and have a huge garden, and rachel could advise me about the proper stoking of my wood stove :)

the slight lack of pdx jobs immediately available has definitely made me look at corvallis & eugene options. though i keep reminding myself that the whole point was to be near my family, and a two-hour drive is hard to justify as 'near.'

It's better than a loooong plane ride.
