A co-worker just asked me if I knew what the best "haunted house" -type events or attractions were in the Seattle area. I told him I had no idea, but I'd ask some friends for recommendations. Help me, LJ hivemind! I have no idea what groups even host haunted house attractions anymore.

In other news, please remind me that I cannot deal with 3" heels for long stretches, no matter how pretty or gothy the boots may be, so I should just stop looking at the Fluevog site RIGHT NOW.
(Yes, I periodically visit the Fluevog site and sigh wistfully over the Countess Olivia and Dame Agnes boots. (clicky-links!) I know they'd kill my feet. But gracious, they're pretty.)

In other other news, hey, who else is going to Bats Day in November? Because we're going! Yes, the combination of it being in November (instead of August) and it being right before my 40th birthday means that we're going. Direct some sympathy toward![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
stroppy_baggage, because he's not a huge fan of theme parks and really didn't want to go to one again for a couple of years. But he loves me, and knows that I've wanted to go to Bats Day for aaaaaages.

I'm vending on Saturday, and then we're going to extend our Disneyland stay for a few days after too.
I didn't know very many people there (and all of those people were from lj) last year, and I'm excited that you guys get to go too! :D Disneyland is definitely one of those 'the more the merrier' type of places. ;)
And I'm *so* glad it's going to be cooler. I am happy to be able to wear *real* clothes, and not have to dart from AC to AC...lol. I'm also hoping that it'll be not as crowded too because of the season, but also because maybe people aren't vacationing as much. ;)

Also, Fluevogs are incredibly durable and well made. It's hard to choke down the price, but they will last you a decade if you take care of them.

Yeah me too - particularly the Dame Agnes boots since the others would not fit over my calves. So pretty! So would not be good for my feet or back...

I've got the original version of the Rococo heels (that were released in what, 1996 or so?), and while I love them fiercely, I wouldn't say they're shoes I can wear if I have to do any amount of walking.

I really wish they would re-release some of the old styles from the 80's.

Of course, I can't wear anything over an inch and a half until my knee gets better anyway. *sigh* I could wear those heels otherwise since they're not spiky, but the knee is a deal-breaker.

And I have been whining about seeing the Haunted House in its Nightmare before XMas version.
Why oh WHY didn't I get sinus surgery months ago??
Oh, yeah, my mom was in the hospital...
If I am good, I want to just drag Eric and GO to the Park!!!

I work on my feet all day and have foot/knee/back issues. I can go 10 hours in them with no problems AT ALL. They are MUCH more comfortable then they look. I have wide feet and can not wear any kind of pointy toed shoe at all, but these have a boxy toe and I have not had any problems with the at all. I put them on layway to pay for them -- $50 at a time make the price a bit less dear. YOu know I work for uber conservative high end retailer and I wear them at work (ok, under pants) all the time. love, Love, LOVE these shoes. You need to buy them.
on another note: If I make you some yummeh smelling pink skull and cross bone soaps, will you pick up the BPAL Bats Day scents? **bats eyes**
