i need a quality pair of shoes. something that won't hurt my feet (even Doc Martens hurt my feet) and does not look ugly.

this is really hard.

helper:
are you looking for shoes, boots or sneakers, or any of the above? do they need to be weatherproof? any other factors, etc... smile

Anna knew she had to have some new shoes today, and Carlo had helped her try on every pair in the store. Carlo spoke wearily, "Well, that's every pair of shoes in the place."

"Oh, you must have one more pair ..."

"No, not one more pair...Well, we have the cruel shoes, but no one would want..."

Anna interrupted, "Oh yes, let me see the cruel shoes!"

Carlo looked incredulous. "No, Anna, you don't understand, you see, the cruel shoes are..."

"Get them!"

Carlo disappeared into the back room for a moment, then returned with an ordinary shoebox. He opened the lid and removed a hideous pair of black and white pumps. But these were not an ordinary pair of black and white pumps; both were left feet, one had a right angle turn with separate compartments that pointed the toes in impossible directions. The other shoe was six inches long and was curved inward like a rocking chair with a vise and razor blades to hold the foot in place. Carlo spoke hesitantly,

"...Now you see why...they're not fit for humans..."

"Put them on me."

"But..."

"Put them on me!"

Carlo knew all arguments were useless. He knelt down before her and forced the feet into the shoes.

The screams were incredible.

Anna crawled to the mirror and held her bloody feet up where she could see.

"I like them."

She paid Carlo and crawled out of the store into the street.

Later that day, Carlo was overheard saying to a new customer, "Well, that's every shoe in the place. Unless, of course, you'd like to try the cruel shoes..."

my boss was talking about her friend's baby "you know the one? the little peanut. little pea-head peanut oh-he's-so-cute" ...and i guess i was expected to nod or something, or say "oh, yes, he's adorable," because she kept looking at me. she tilted her head to the side like a dog and started to ask me again. i am unable to deal with/promote small talk...

HA! i hate babies! And they're ugly and kinda nasty looking with the druel and other random fluids exuding from their body. And i definitely can't pretend i find them cute at all. . . until they're able to talk. . .then the only thing cute about it is getting them to say dirty words or rediculously outlandish words that they can never pronounce and haven't the slightest clue what they mean. Sophmoric i know, but it's the little things in life i guess.

I suppose i could be a receptionist at a tattoo shop. That would be the right kind of atmosphere. But, i have the worlds WORST phone skills . . . and i'm not that good with people either. If the shop is looking for a first impression of an amicalbe atmosphere, me on a phone would be a bit odd. My friend since second grade is constantly making fun of my phone skills. There's something odd about not seeing the person i'm talking to, and then i'm all fsdhgousbgjkerbh;g. But it's definitely a job i'd look for and take wink

For the record I agree with you 100%. Babies always remind me of a young Richard Nixon.



You tell me - what the hell's cute about that?

every time i update and say i have nothing to say-- that isn't quite true. it means i have complaints but don't want to be whiny. it means i am worrying about things but don't want to bother other people with any of it.

so, like i do in real life, i'll speak when spoken to.

tell me something interesting! all of you! biggrin

Something interesting. . . .well, i dont know you, and i dont remember which group posting i clicked on you from, and it's raining in new orleans, and i know that the word Dust is its own antonyms.

Dust the furniture vs. Dust the cutting board with flour.


hope that was random and interesting enough for you wink

it is too fucking cold. i hate the cold more than i can express. and this isn't just whining and complaining. i really do not think humans should have to live where it gets this cold. (i know there isn't enough room for everyone to live in the tropics. i just don't understand why any settlers wouldn't have tried to go farther south.) i hate...
