i think i’m psychic!

I think I’m psychic. Last night, I slept like a rock and had some pretty vivid and strange dreams, the last of which involved me trying on a pair of bright blue TOMS with a $70 pricetag. In my dream, Julian told me that if I liked them, I should get them, which was awesome. We were also in a roller skating rink, but that’s beside the point. What a silly dream – everyone knows TOMS are only about $30 a pair, which doubles their awesomeness (the other part being that every time you buy a pair, they give a pair to a child in need).

Fast forward to now, when I am browsing NYLON’s blog and come across a post about a collaboration between TOMS and TopShop, the popular UK retail shop. Their croqueted version of the shoe (which I’m not quite sold on) sells for $80 a pair

Weird, right? Am I psychic? I’ve never even owned a pair of TOMS shoes and now I’m dreaming about them and their high price tag, then I see a similar thing on a blog the next day? Strange, I tell you. Maybe it’s all the LOST I’ve been watching.

Also – does anyone else have that thing where you simply HAVE to tell people about “that weird dream you had?” I sure do, just ask anyone who knows me. My Mom used to get so annoyed every time I wanted to give her the mundane and intricate details of my dreams when I was young. I try to hold it in more now. Except for today.

    hey! those are not “toms” those are “alpargatas”!! Gauchos used them here, they are the cheapest thing u can buy, u can finde some for arround 6 pesos, which will be less than 2 dollars, so i would never pay 70 for a pair! if u want i can mail u some, just give me ur shoe size :D besos all teh way from Arg

    Haha! Well, TOMS is a brand – very philanthropic – everytime you buy a pair, they donate a pair to a child overseas. It’s pretty cool. :)

    I actually watched all 6 seasons of Lost in less than 6 months, so needless to say, I had some pretty crazy dreams. Also, prepare to get some weird looks when explaining your dreams after a long night of watching Lost. lol.

    Ps: I love following your blog.

    Wow! We just started last week and are midway through Season 2. Pretty wild, but the four day weekend helped matters a lot. Last night we only watched two episodes. We’re totally becoming those boring married people! Ahh!

    I’m glad you’re following me! :)

    Haha weird! How come you didn’t tell me about that dream??

    I try not to tell you every single dream I have, because that could get annoying. Sheesh, babe, didn’t you read my post at all? ;)

    Happens to me all the time, seriously. It’s not psychic, it’s prophetic; I remember listening to a couple of your dreams at Christmas and telling you I felt that about you. What He’s showing you is that you are “seeing” correctly SO THAT when the next really important dream comes you’ll know to pay attention to it.
