diamonds on the soles of her shoes...

well this is my first blog...after many conversations about them with several blogging friends i decided to give it a whirl! :)

i am currently going thru a paul simon phase and can't stop listening to his music. i am very much partial to his solo stuff and not as much the 'and garfunkel' part. one of my favorites is the title of the blog...no surprise there because i am insanely obsessed with shoes.

sidenote: my roommate and i were talking about all of my shoes one day and realized that I had bought 11 pairs of shoes in the nine months we have lived together....i feel that might be a bit excessive.

anyways...there is just something wonderful about paul simon's music that just puts me in a relaxed and wonderful mood. i love how music can truly do that. music has such a powerful way relating to so many people and emotions and experiences for so many different people. i love how listening to a song can take me so quickly to a memory i feel as if i am in that moment all over again.

'heaven is a place on earth' is a huge song of my childhood. whenever i hear that song i immediately remember being in preschool and rollerskating around the gym in the afternoons while i waited for my mom to pick me up. that was my jam back in the day!

well i hope that this blog is interesting to those who read it. alli and i have had discussions that we don't think we are interesting enough to blog but i want to prove that wrong...anyways enjoy!
