Shoes, just shoes

Bought some new shoes today. For those of you who don't know, that's a big deal. I've got pain-in-the-ass feet to fit and usually only the expensive shoes will do. Every now and then, I've lucked into some orthotic-friendly pairs which cost under the $50 mark. I wear those to death and then find another pair eventually, with lots of agony.

This time, I went to the specialty shoe shop in town. They measured my feet, helped me find shoes that accept my old-lady-like orthotics and accommodate my ice-skate-blade-narrow ankles. I'm delighted.

I think I helped Warren Buffet out a bit when I bought the SAS shoes. They ain't pretty, but I hear they will survive a nuclear attack while supporting my injured feet in comfort, if not style.

Sighs, it's like buying tires, they ain't pretty, but you need them.

Tomorrow, I go back to work after being off for a week. It's times like these when how much I despise my job is thrown into sharp relief. It's as if having time off makes me see how much this job doesn't fit me. I can do it. I'm good at it. I'm just tired of being the admin and not using my other talents.

Ah well, new animation on Fox tonight... that should be fun. And, I'm about to get a home pedicure. :)

shoes, work
