I don't know your opinion of monkeys, but I think they are pretty funny animals. They throw poop, and I've seen them "help themselves" at the zoo. They are basically our furry crude cousins. Although not crude, I like my silly monkey necklace that I'm wearing today...

Here's a closeup. The little dude is covering his eyes. Maybe he did something crude and is ashamed?

I'm wearing this with my earrings from Erin that I showed on my last post. It goes together quite nicely today!

I'm also wearing my J-41 shoes. I bought these on a whim from 6pm.com for $20 and they have turned into one of those fantastically lucky purchases. This style is the Sara Sport and they are uber comfortable and (I think) pretty stylish for casual shoes. I wore them for an entire 4 day time period in Chicago and my feet never complained about the constant walking. These shoes rock.

We're hosting a party this weekend and I'll be honest and say that I feel really overwhelmed about the whole thing. There are so many things to think about when more than 2 other people are coming over. Food!Drinks! Entertainment! I can't have people bored, hungry, and thirsty.

I'm even taking a half-day today, just so that I can properly plan it all out this afternoon. It's supposed to be a casual bbq, but I guess it's like natural makeup - there is still some effort going into it.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!
