Evildeb is reading technical support cases in German. She’s translating them in babelfish. We thought the above was from the error message, and wondered why we couldn’t have the same words in the English error message. But it’s not part of the error message. None the less, it’s a good blog title. My day, however, is going just fine. I have some new shoes on, and they feel great! Danskos, which I got for half price from Danskooutlet.com. Dansko….. not a cheap shoe. But good for walking. My feets deserve some new shoes. [I got the “Fran” btw, in green]
A few weeks ago, I went up to Vancouver BC for the day. And like a dumb, vain girl, I wore impractical tall boots. Now, they aren’t much of a heel, mostly platform, and I wear them all the time. So, in my defense, I didn’t know they would be so problematic, or I wouldn’t have worn them. But they make me taller, which I like. We ended up walking around the neighborhood a great deal, because it’s a walking type neighborhood. And I could tell pretty quickly that the boots were going to bother me. The socks I was wearing where on the thin side, and there is no cushion inside the boot, my feet were kinda sliding. Sliding leads to friction, and you know what friction leads to, don’t you? Blisters. I knew my shoes hurt me, but once we got back from the walking, I was basically sitting and they were ok. When I put my shoes back on to go to my car, it was not comfortable. Ok, it hurt. But I got to driving and didn’t stop for soda until I crossed the border. I had to use the little girls room too. When I got out of the car, when I stood up, I collapsed back on the car seat. My feet hurt like hell at that point. Because the blisters had arrived. On the bottom of my feet!
