2, both are the strappy sandal kind as I usually only need heels for weddings in the spring/summer.
Name 3 small but annoying things your DH does?
Leaves his underwear on the floor, has to set the sleep timer for 45 minutes exactly every single night because he is superstitious, will leave the expired milk in the fridge & open a new one and continue to drink out of the good one without trashing the old one (he also eats all the cereal I buy).
Do you dare to wear crocs (or the off brand)?
I used to wear them before they were a big thing. Now, I don't own any. I might wear the work ones for work (nurse), but I'm not sure how they would hold up. Definitely getting some for our kids when they are old enough since they are so cute!

soda
What was your first job?
I was a hostess/busgirl at an Italian restaurant. I think I made like $35 a week plus tips. I hated warming bread as I always burnt my fingers on the pizza oven & they made me wear a tie, which would constantly get dirty from carrying dirty plates and crap.
Lastest book you've read?
hmm, I'm reading Catching Fire now. I think the last book I read was Hunger Games. I tried reading 50 Shades of Grey, but it couldn't keep my interest and I didn't finish it. I had a really hard time reading during the first tri.

If you went to prom, what did your dress look like?
The first prom my dress was navy with glittery sparkles (it was subtle though). It had a line of crystals along the top edge, was fitted through the body and flared out. It was really comfy (& I still have it). I even wore it a few years ago on New Years Eve. For Sr prom, I borrowed a friend's dress that was grey & black. It was a trendy style at the time, but so ugly looking back as the colors like swirled together.
How many pairs of black high heels do you own? Probably six... and I maybe wear one of them on a regular basis.
Name 3 small but annoying things your DH does? Leaves his dishes in the sink "to soak," procrastinates on EVERYTHING, freaks out about small scratches, etc. on the walls, floors, furniture (small stuff that I see as just part of life).
Do you dare to wear crocs (or the off brand)? Nope. But I do rock the Dansko clogs.
