Some days I should just stay in bed...

There are two vastly different ways of looking at today:
1. I am very lucky
2. I am very unlucky...

Why, you may ask?


1. I got out of the house before 12pm on a Sunday and went into town to see a design exhibition in which the beautiful Bell had been a collaborator (10 points to the person who tells me why that sentence doesn't sound right - mum you don't count)

2. The gallery was closed because a member of staff was sick...

(The note sticky taped to the door)

1. This gave Eddy and myself ample time to go shoe shopping and we each proceeded to spend a chunk of our hard earned money

2. This gave Eddy and myself ample time to go shoe shopping and we each proceeded to spend a chunk of our hard earned money (it fits in both don't you think?)

(not the shoes I decided to buy but one that interested me none the less)

1. Shoes distract me from reality and send me to my happy place

2. Shoes distract me and so I forget that I left my phone on the couch on which I was sitting to try my shoes on.

1. A shop assistant was kind enough to point this out before we left.

(A completely unrelated photo that I had wanted to post a few months ago... this gives you some kind of idea of the type of crazy woman I looked like when working as an intern last summer)

1. After shopping there was even time to eat lunch!

2. I accidentally left my brand new shoes at the table we were eating at when we left...

1. The women who had been sitting next to us noticed and got a member of the cleaning staff to put them in a safe place for us, ie, I got them back :D

(Another unrelated photo I wanted to share... the greeting I received at work 2 weeks ago in recognition of the release of my final university semester results and therefore impending graduation! :-D)

2. I dropped my train ticket when on my way back to the station

1. I got it back too :D

The moral of the story? It would have been much safer for my belongings if I had never gotten out of bed this morning (bearing in mind that my DSLR was in my handbag the entire time) but those little green men must have been smiling on me today because I obviously had luck on my side.

Just thought I'd let you know.
