More pointless news -
Love at first sight does exist! With boots.
Normally I am not even a shoe person, but when I went shopping with Crocky last week I found the boots I have been looking for for some years now. Well, almost - they're as high as I wanted them to be, they're laced, they fit my pudgy legs - but the heel is too high to make them wearable on a more than monthly basis without serious blisters.
Well, I still might buy them. They're absolutely gorgeous, and they fit in spite of my fat calves!! Well, only because everybody started wearing their trousers inside their boots now... Which I am not going to do. Sigh. The heels are too high, but apart from that, they fit, but I have all the shoes I need, including a pair of boots.
But those are not laced - although they do have a heel problem. What felt just fine in the shop turned out to feel like whip lashes on my bare feet at every step after the first kilometre, I'm afraid the same might happen with the other boots, too. Well, and I daresay it will happen...
Blessedly, they don't have stilettos, but all the same, they're too high for me who hasn't owned anything more high-heeled than 5cm for more than four years. Still. Me wants!
Am I a bad person if I buy shoes I really don't need? I'd feel like wasting money, but they're cheep, and they're pretty... but they might just be a bit too extreme to wear on a daily basis, and there's the heels, and... Sigh. Enough of boots.
Off to work on a tutorial assignment on two poems by Sylvia Plath. Destitution and the self. Great.

no subject

Lame, I know).
