Jim Lee must still have the sequined stilettos which is OK because I don't wear heels often. I used to. When I graduated from college and worked in retailing the department store carried size 5 shoes, they could not sell them so I bought them off the clearance rack with a big employee discount. Most stores don't carry 5's anymore, so that is why I wear kids shoes for casual.  Lee I don't find a lot of shoes on sale, well sneakers with Barbie Doll or cartoon characters.  I have bought kids boots (rubber boots) over the years but the last pair I don't know why I did not notice in the store they are really too small for my legs.  They aren't tight but they brush against my legs and are irritating. My legs are heavier than a kids. DUH!

Great prose Maureen F. I was not dressed (clothed, just not for dinner), no make-up and we were supposed to leave in 5 minutes.

Elaine did handle it well!

I hope newbies will blog when memed... I was afraid to pick someone who has not blogged....

Jay:  I would have to take this entry "Members Only" if I disclosed my mother's shoe size.... she is my same height.  

Great support.....  

Fool me once...

I went to check first! 

I know which one Chris is.  I talked to Chris on the phone... I meant to blog about an agent in my office (who is an inactive Active Rainer) being thrilled with Chris's companies product and talking about it at our sales meeting last Tuesday...   Our manager (who is also an inactive Active Rainer ..vowed when he joined that he would not participate..on Active Rain) showed Chris's companies product and where it is on our Business Center...(our company intranet I work for an "awesome brokerage." ) It is hard sometimes for us to know about wonderful products like what Chris's company offers because there is so much on our Business Center. 

Ann: if don't pay attention the silverware is backwords. I did it wrong a couple of weeks ago.

Jeff: Stars and moon help

Karen: I am 5th (?)  generation in America...from the McCabe part of my family but my father is only 1/2 Irish. My mother is all Irish... so that makes me and my siblings 75%?  It is hard to trace ancestry that far back in Ireland and I have ancestors from a number of counties, it is confusing.

I think Notre Dame is a great school... but then I am a Badger not a Buckeye... his hair is beautiful. 

Good luck on your meme. 

I think the Notre Dame seal is classy. I am kinda partial to the little gieen Fightin Irish guy though...

P.S. do you realize by putting the link to your website in the comment you've made the comment into comment spam?  Read Colleen K's recent  blog entry about comment spam, ActiveRain guidelines,  Your name below the comment is obviously a link to your profile which would certainly have a link to your website, which is really the only way that is "Kosher"  to leave a comment here or out on in the blogophere.  We used to have the ability to edit comments that had links in them but our only choice now is to delete a comment where someone has inserted a link to their website, another blog, etc.  Links are welcome if they carry on the conversation, for example some bloggers (but not all)  would allow a link to a meme entry.   The more members slide in a link or two promoting themselves or linking to their business endeavors the less likely you will see bloggers to accept a comment with a link to anything.

I'd appreciate if you could remove it as it is against AR Guidelines. Thanks  

I was looking at my first blog entry here the other day.  I think Kristal Kraft had a link in her comment and I think I probably did it too on other ActiveRain blogs when I was new. I probably used to do it out in the blogophere too.   

When Charles Richey and a few others starting saying it was comment spam on ActriveRain  I did not get it at first... but it finally sunk in.  There is always concern it will look like a link farm, or spammy and that Google won't smile on AR anymore. I think that is just a scare tactic mostly.  We do need to respect one anothers blogs because we are all networked here.
