The Not So Daily Aigner

I know some of you may be wondering why I started a featured listing called "The Daily Aigner" only to end up listing it weekly or late by a couple days, etc. I mean, all you have to do is look at the date on the listing and the date it was actually listed to see that I am waayyyyy beyond what could politely be described as "chronically late." I'm uh....morbidly late.

Now, to do some sort of fashion penance, I just out myself right then and there by confessing my lateness right there in the title:
The Late Daily Aigner, The Fashionably Late Daily Aigner, The Extremely Tardy, The Lately Listed, etc etc... But now I'm running out of names!! What's a girl to do?


Maybe you've even suspected that after almost 3 months straight of doing this daily that I am running out of Aigs even. But you're wrong. I am not out of Aigners. I'm out of "The Daily". Who ever has enough Day to get them through their Daily? Deep thoughts by your favorite undead shoe slingin' Garbage Pail Mommy. (are there any others? cool, then I win)


So after this weekend I promise I'll try to do better...But I'm still testing some of 'em first...
Just some quality control, that's all. I think I'll call this one "The Company Ink" cause I am definitely dipping into it like its an ice cream sundae.

mmmm.....

Thanks for supporting the master Mister Etienne...and keep checkin' out my Aigs!

My own Sleepy Hollow complete with Mother Nature's mean ass slip and slide (patent pending)


just a gratuitous rushing of water





Driveway V. Creek


A dead tree stuck on the border between two properties.
Looks like a lot of bugs and birds have a new home,
cause this is way out of our pay grade.
(Its hard to believe the water level was so high it picked this up like a toothpick
and needled it in between this grate and a barbed wire fence a foot above it.
Insane. )


Mother Nature
combined with 3 years of a broken down 1949 Ford 9N tractor
makes for a mean ass slip and slide








Our thoughts go out to all the families, individuals and organizations who've experienced loss during this massive weather event we just experienced in our great state. I know new life hides just below the surface, so I approach summer with thanksgiving and hope.

Side note: I'm so happy I could barf cause we finally got a new mower so this will all be gone tomorrow. So enjoy the lush wildness because its all croquet courses and badminton courts from here on out.

Love,
~RR

Shit My Mom Says

"Dear Rags*,
So you can remember--- Cappagallo is not a brand.
Were you trying to be funny?. It is Pappa Gallo as in Italian grandaddy wine maker, or pizza restaurant proprietor ( Pappa John). Catch you later, Mom"


Now you tell me what you think this says? The P totally looks like a C. Don't front.


The sad thing is I totally know the brand Pappagallo. I grew up in those shoes. But this label looked different to me and I actually had seen tons of them and thought there was another whole different brand called Cappagallo, which strangely I never questioned as strangely similar sounding as the brand Pappagallo. So now I'm totally exposed. The shit already sold! But whatev. You guys don't know me from jack. Except maybe half of you who are fam or friends or just have the nads to follow this blog "officially" rather than just blog stalkers although I welcome ya'll too cause hell, I understand this game! A listener's a listener! Anyhoo...Its out. The cat is out of the bag.

I am a full blown airhead. Add it to the list.


And I don't care what she says...I still love me some Cappagallos! Now pass me the wine and pizza, I'm starved already!

Yours,
~R.Rags

I literally said this. To my dog.

"Bite me. No really, bite me! Then maybe I can go to the hospital and get a day off for once!"

Blog Fast Broken and just like breaking any fast, you have to start with a small cracker

I guess I'd qualify as a small cracker, as I am not on the tall side and I am definitely a cracker.
So there you have it. I'm your cracker. Nourish yourself with my white flourey goodness.
Now, to business.
Featuring the Daily Aigner for the ...Day!!..(duh)



Featuring this week's
Saturday Night Bootie






Ahhh....been gone a month and look at all the dad gummed new crap, right?! I know, I know....I hate it too, but look, I gotta try and keep it lively or rather, undeadly, or even I will get bored of this racket.

And I'm the obsessed one staring down these gorgeous foot coverings every night, not you!

I'm the one haunted and mocked by finding the perfect ever shoe in the history of the universe, in someone else's size!.... not you!!!

I'm the one rubbing oils and protective salves on these unappreciative and sometimes downright dirty ruffians!

I'm the one running up and down 3 flights of stairs every day trying to answer each and every question that might come my way....

What is the insole length?

Are they true to size?

Do they talk back? Seriously though, lets keep it undead sexy but moreso, lets try and make it fun and somewhat inane, again, for fun. Fun and Stupidly Fun, my kind of combination.

In that vein I offer to you "The Daily Aigner," and I give you "Saturday Night Bootie" my new category of shoe listings!!!

And you sit there unpeturbed and not even slightly surprised that I am actually trying to put every one of my store items into some sort of sale category. I'm such a capitalist ho. Anyways...

Check me out!!!

(oh yeah, you can leave now...this is it. I told you It'd be a cracker. Thats a morsel, remember?)


Love ya, mean it....

Happy Valentimes Day! It's couples weekend!!!! ...er...couples week!

No one wants to feel alone on Valentimes Day weekend! Not even a pair of old shoes. So to celebrate this weekend and to commemorate love, friendship and companionship I am listing couples of pairs of shoes all weekend and cause I'm a softie and a capitalist, lets just say all week. So not one pair but two in a row that have something in common, share a brand name or style, somehow complement or contrast with the other pair or just seem like they belong together in some wacky way.





As with many things in my life, I am already a little late on this one as one couple of pairs already sold before I could even blog about it. Classic.

Don't get me started on the zombie pictures of new clothes I need to list that I've just been sitting on for 3 weeks and some of the boots I modeled the clothes with have sold. I gotta get control of my calendar, right? (picking up dirty laundry littering the hallway)

I mean, business is business!!! (kicking a wrapped up diaper out of the way)


I hope you enjoy. You know I just did this for you.

Valentime.
