socks and dress shoes

When i was in 6th grade my sister told me an extremely important fashion rule. she said "jen, when you get into 7th grade, dont wear socks with your dress shoes." This seemed easy enough for me...instead of wearing socks with my dress shoes, i wore socks and boat shoes. i can distinctly remember wearing a long flowered skirt, some random solid colored shirt and green socks with my boat shoes. why am i telling you this? well, because today i broke that rule. as i write, i am sitting here in the welcome center (the gateway to maranatha) hiding my feet under the desk.
see, dawn sent me a bunch of useful coupons, and they expire today! i was going to use them this weekend, but i ended up working almost all normal wal-mart shopping hours. so i decided to go on Monday...well on monday i was sick, so i looked at my planner...hmmm...today was free! why not make a who evening out of it and go to the outlets and kohls, etc? so my friends and i get all ready and i was driving down the road and my phone rings. it was one of those "odd" ringers because it was from an unavailable number. sure enough, it was the welcome center employee reminding me that i was scheduled and already 5 minutes late. my heart sank. so much for a night out on the town (oorrr...at wal-mart anyway). acting fast, i rush home and throw on a skirt...and committed the fashion mistake of the year. not only am i currently wearing socks with my dress shoes, they are white socks with pink flowers on them and black shoes. yeah. i look really stylin'. dawn, thanks for the advice. i am sorry i let you down;)
