Oregon Trail tees for sale!


Ohmygod these are hysterical! Do you remember when computers weren't in the classroom, they were in a computer lab and if you were lucky you learned how to program that old Apple 2e (or something) to go up one and over one so that it made a circle? Well if so, then surely you remember Oregon Trail?!? We played it in social studies, you had your team, you had oxen, a wagon, had to decide every day whether you were going to buy medical supplies or food. Were you going to hunt or walk or rest? Invariably regardless of what you did, you died of dysentery. This tee is a subtle reminder that in the end, we all wind up in the same place!

Stylehive & Bluefly pair up for 'The Hunt' Contest


Okay for all of you Stylehive fiends - they've recently partnered up with BlueFly and are running a scavenger hunt of sorts. It's a really cool idea - basically "hivers" are encouraged to dig through all of the great things on BlueFly, find something really cool, unique, etc.. and bookmark it in their hive. Then said hiver, encourages all of their followers to hive the find (in my case Prada peep toes last week). She (or he) with the highest rated find wins a $200 BlueFly Gift Certificate. How BRILLIANT is this?? I was mighty proud of the fact that my Prada peep toes not only made it to the Top 15 last week, but I also picked up like 7 followers. Yippee! Here's a picture of my find - now go out and conquer The Hunt yourself!

Okay, I'm ready to start blogging again...

Ugh - I was soooo disappointed when I found out that I accidentally deleted my blog, but I'm ready to start again so here goes nothing...
