Shoes....

I have been a girl for my entire 21 years, but this morning I had a startling revelation. Apparently, it is expected that if you are to wear a shoe with heels you must be in an ungodly amount of pain. I realized this when I thought back on something that happened exactly one week ago (give or take a few hours). I was observing and a little girl looked at me as I passed by her desk, and asked me "Why do you always wear those shoes?" (In my defense I have only observed 4 times and they are my FAVORITE black strappy heels, which I don't wear frequently.) So I tell her that I wear them because they are my favorite, because I have finally managed to find a cute shoe that doesn't kill my feet, even after 3 hrs of walking around her classroom. What does she do? Looks at me like I am crazy. So apparently, heels are supposed to be painful. Why doesn't someone just realize women would be much happier if their feet didn't hurt constantly.

hey! i linked to your blog through diamondkt's... but i totally agree with you on the heels thing. i have a pair that i wear and more than a handful of girls have given me that "look" while asking why i am wearing heels?! well, they are hardly a hell anyways, i have worn them down to flats basically, but they are by far the most comfortable pair of shoes i own. probably more comfortable than my sneakers. so all those girls need to put their snarls away and go find themselves some comfy shoes! : )

I know I completely agree! I think they are just jealous that they can't find a pair of comfy heels....
