Lucky Rocketship Underpants, et al

There is a Calvin & Hobbes cartoon that follows Calvin through a day where nothing goes his way, but he is oblivious to the chaos because he is in Superhero Mode. Only because he is wearing his Lucky Rocketship Underpants.

There are days when I can sense I am going to need Lucky Rocketship Underpants, when Alexander's Terrible Horribe No-Good Very Bad Day is going to sit in my back pocket from the get-go.

Today started last night, knowing today would be one of THOSE days. Unfortunately, I don't have Lucky Rocketship Unders.

I DO, however, have Lucky Herioine Shoes. These are Superhero shoes, the kind that say I'm smart and sassy and tall enough to reach the top shelf. These are comfortable enough I can chase the villains all day and look good doing it. These say, "Why, yes, Mr. CEO. That WAS my idea and original presentation. When can I share this with the rest of the C-Suite team?"

And. They sparkle in the sun. What more could a working girl want?
