Shawnee, there is no topic you can parody that won't have a response from me.
Especially shoes.
Although I am twisting it to talk about my feet.
This is allowed.
My feet hate shoes.
My feet Blister and BLEED when they even look at new shoes.
Sensible and expensive school shoes? Blister and bleed.
Matron got used to seeing me in the first week each term and stopped saying "Why didn't you put plasters on at home?" She knew I would be back requiring more plasters at break, at lunchtime and before hometime. Because my feet are prodigious bleeders.
Lovely soft moccasins? Bleed.
Handmade shoes (tried once when I had the money) bleed.
£125 designer shoes when that was a month's rent. Bleed.
Flip flops (aka thongs). Bleed.
My superhero power would be to wear any shoes any time without pain.
So what I mostly have is platforn shoes, as they do not blister as badly as heels. And I need to be tallers; heels hurt more in general. Laces, velcro, slip-ons - not bothered. I change shoes on a monthly basis-ish. Am currently re-breaking in my boots so I don't bleed next Friday.
Honestly - feet like mine are such a torment. Someone set up a charity for my extreme suffering?
Now I have to ask you about your friends.
What kind of friends? Do you have more than one friend? Are your friends straight-laced or easy-come-easy-go? or just easy? Do you call them friends? If you call them friends do you specify "close" or "casual" friends or do you call them something else entirely? How many times do you change friends? Do you walk all over your friends? Do you have friends to sit around with? Do you like friends? Are your friends your shoes? Can you have more than one type of friend? Do you have friends of colour? Do your friends match your pants? Are they lovely friends? Can I fuck your friends? Did your great grandparents have friends?
