Early Christmas Presents!

Trent gave me my Christmas present this weekend.



Uggs!!
Mine are actually the tall chestnut ones... even better :)

(Both my sister and mother just audibly groaned. Pay them no mind.)

Let me explain why I am so excited.

1. Goodness gracious, they are ridiculously comfortable and well crafted.

2. I am about to be a 26 year old... student. I am a professional student. I might as well capitalized on the advantages that come with that status.

3. I am not wearing them with denim miniskirts and such. I wear them at home, around the house and on late night walks with the dog, and today, since it was freeeeeezing, I wore them on my bike ride and then switched into normal shoes at work. Totally reasonable, I believe.

I love them. Thank you babe, you're the best.

And I renewed my Surfrider membership in acknowledgment of my newly amplified "surfer-style"

1) Uggggggggggsssss! Nooooooo!

2) Wouldn't it be an early birthday present, not an early Christmas present?

3) You had best not be wearing these out in any sort of public capacity.

4) Even I have to admit that they can be comfortable for limited situations like coming home from the pool or...I can't think of another acceptable situation...

Apparently he already has a birthday present too.. I think it is an activity, so these are my Christmas present. And, he is pretty bad about keeping presents secret.. which I am okay with.

I knew you would be thrilled. Secretly you are just jealous. They are SO awesome. They are like a giant cup of cocoa for your feet.

But I agree.. they do have limited public appearance potential. Mostly just dog walking and post-workout situations. I am not an undergrad.

you know what? i just got a pair.

i was at the doctor in town early the other day and saw this woman wearing them, and i thought to myself "she must be an expat" and then she opened her mouth and perfect accent-less french came out. and then all of a sudden i needed some (to be used only in a very limited set of situations)

oh and 3 cracks me up, soooo reminds me of santa barbara.

I love em! Wish I could wear them here...actually I saw some crazy lady walking down the street in a pair here not too long ago. Uggs and Maui just don't go together.
