Now Arno, you know we have fun, our little bouts make for interesting times! I am not disturbed at all, unless you mean in terms of mental conditions, then there might be something. I just wish you would register and post as someone other than Anonymous. And dial a psychics are far less credible than reflexology. Haven't you ever heard the song, it goes like this... The toe bone's connected to the, foot bone, the foot bone's connected to the, ankle bone... Miss Cleo is just a lie, but at least our feet are connected to the rest of us, so I would think the dial a psychic is less credible, not more credible.

Ben, did I get some credit in the conversations? I can hear you now "Yes, some weird girl online who likes high heels came up with these ideas we're discussing" To which a friend replies: "Ben, how much did you have to drink? How long have you had this fantasy world?"

Hoverfly! It's not about hours or paycheque. It is about life, and life having a lot of difficulties that I need to help with. A part time job will just steal my free time and work me to death. Then I will not be here posting! Besides, I have enough stress with one job for a big company. I don't need to struggle through anything else. Now, as for lobsters, alive is best, but I only know one way to kill a lobster, and that is a plunge head first into boiling water. The trouble being, I would prefer to steam the lobster, so do I just drive a knife through the brain? If I am in heels, you can imagine my first inclination would be a stiletto into the lobster to get it to stop attacking me. And those claws are dangerous! A pincer and a crusher claw, and I could be going to the hospital if Pinchy has no bands... I think I will need Lobster, shoes, and some hazard pay for this one...

Nata, your brother will be shy until he matures, and in men, this is more random and spread over different ages. I think for women, there is more of a constant in maturity. Give him time! He needs to build confidence. Help him by encouraging him, or even forcing him into a harmless situation, like telling a girl about him, almost like you are trying to make him uncomfortable and trying to get the girl's help, but in reality, you're setting him up. Okay, so it is a bit complex and very much a scheming, plotting type of idea. Those are my best!

People like my advice! Wonderful. I did write that myself, plucked from thin air. If someone else once wrote that same thing, then I have never come across it. I think many of us are at the "live it" stage for heels. Maybe that is why we relate to the new advice quote. Good for us!

Stunning, yes, we all have little taser things and we use them quite well. You'll be unconscious in a moment. It will only burn for a second... Or would you prefer a club to the head?

squid cooked in it's own ink!

-slurp!-

Squid is good, yes. Yum. I really like ordering some when I go for sushi. And everyone eats Calamari, but I prefer when the restaurant includes the tentacles, because no one else will eat them and I love them. Crispy, crunchy bits of goodness.

I think Hoverfly is talking about some other awards. Oscar would not pick science fiction as the best of pictures. There's a new channel in Canada, the Independant Film Channel, and it has some great commercials, which inform us that hollywood movies are bad. In the most recent commercial, they are in a class room, and the russian director is teaching everyone. On the board behind him it says "Hollywood crap is waste of film" and when the girl is proud of her movie title, "Love is Flowers" she is told it is hollywood crap, and actor Michael Rappaport, the guest in class for the day, suggests that "you gotta love, spanking the monkey". I don't watch this channel very much, but they did play the movie Seven during the day and I watched it at work, on and off. So it has to be a good channel.

Fox, the thrift shops here are boring at times. I may check into it. I do know, however, that the good stuff is snapped up by the staff when it first arrives, and then everything goes out for the public to buy. Also, going for size ten and eleven will make it a bit more difficult. I'll still try when I have time. Mr. Ponytail. That is a tempting offer, and maybe something I would take up for people as a service one day, but not today. Wow, that would be surreal, people sending me things, and I use pictures as payment... this is a whole new internet industry just ready to explode. Now, can someone send me lobster, and I promise to have pictures taken, me in heels, preparing lobster. There's an interesting area of service industries.. Hey, a girl has to eat, and shoe leather may not be tasty.

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, You wear high heels too, Happy Birthday to you... Go out, have fun, and enjoy. 32, that's a low number.. there's still fifty years of fun left in you.

I seem to have a problem. I am quite distraught because I am stuck with one pair of shoes for work, and I end up wearing them every day. It isn't enough variety for me. Should I ditch the idea of five inch heels every day and switch pairs more often? This would mean having to wear some three inch heels for a few months until I can save up for new shoes. I know, get leather, but I can't afford man made materials, this will make it a bit longer for saving and a bit longer with one pair of five inch heels suitable for the season. And those shoes are already showing a few signs of wear, scratches and the like. I need everyone to help focus me. How should I go about this? I can't wear one pair of shoes all of the time. Yet how do I continue to develop my skills for five inch heels and beyond? I admit, I am a bit depressed, and I feel very much the stereotypical self centred girl right now, worried about shoes and fashion and making everyone happy. What do people think? Everyone's advice is welcome here, so post!

Melissa is right, there may come a day when it is time for five. You will try it once, out of curiosity, and find that you like it, so you will try to become good at five inches, and then, you'll spend more time at five inches and maybe even dare to experiment higher. Try it, like it, love it, live it. Don't like it? Skip it altogether.

Checking my new patent stilettos, the wear is only a tiny bit off. After three weeks, the slightest bit of extra wear on the outside of each heel tip is visible. I do think how one walks determines the wear pattern. For me, I know I rock my feet outward at times when I am standing, as a pressure change activity. So it may not be walking alone, but other foot movements when at rest. I am visualizing how I walk and I am sure that most of the wear comes from what we call shoe play, when I am standing. I will keep watching my heel tips and see if this changes. It has been 3 weeks, after all, and not nearly enough time to tell what pattern will develop.

Fox, some people are... different. I think this comes from the car being power, the heels being sexy, and power, and combining them, a sexy heeled woman who has power is taming a powerful machine. I agree, be careful with the heels when driving, they tend to be damaged. I have little makrs all over my oxfords. Speaking of the oxfords, a new observation. The type of heel also determines the driving style. With a stiletto, you have a small point and the foot can pivot easy, but this means a lack of control as the slightest twinge of the foot can create some pivot action. My oxfords have the square post shape, and they offer more surfance contact on the car floor. This allows for better grip and control, so despite the four inch height, I can manage by balancing on the heel, or laying the heel along the floor. Either way leads to dirt or damage. This is why my ankle boots have tape on the back, because I drove in them all winter and the back seam for the fabric ripped open from the pressure of rubbing every now and then.

Fox, you're giving me a complex! I don't think all of my posts are of such quality and importance, but maybe the silly ones are entertaining? So long as I never feel like a reporter at a newspaper, and always expected to produce some great work, I may survive. No pressure, now, no, none at all! I just have to keep posting like mad! That may not be a problem, I'm already mad... not as much as a hatter, but then, no mercury here.

Pokemon? Isn't that the show where people enslave animals in spheres and force them to fight for amusement and glory? And they say cockfighting is bad, yet allow this type of show on television. Why don't we teach children to bait some bears? Rabid dog fights in a pit?

Usually the ones that win are the worst pieces of tripe to ever stain our planet.

Comparing award winning movies to tripe is an insult to tripe!

(Yes I have tried tripe once, and well, it's stomach lining. It's chewy, it's pale, and while it was well prepared for flavour, it just wasn't a good texture for me. Much like overcooked squid.)

No injuries, not to worry, Francis. The old trainer would have preferred if I were broke right now, and wearing a new pair of five and a half inch heels this Thursday. This is far too soon, and just because I love shoes does not mean I should give up things like, oh I don't know, eating?

It is quite unusual. I did say I will let you know when it happens, and while I wait for someone to comment on my shoes without me pointing them out, I am noticing that EVERYONE is complimenting me on my hair. There's no way to win in this world...

Awards shows are evil. They are the most vile and purest evil there can be. Why? They are about conformity. They are about greed. Movie #2 wins an award, and it is called "best" so people should spend money to go see it, and then buy the DVD, after renting it, of course. Why? Because it is best. Not because an individual might like it, simply because it won something. The same goes for music. Bands without much skill or depth or meaning win awards because that is what sells. If it were based on talent, bands you never heard of would win. So award shows are evil. There are good awards, like Nobel Peace Prizes, humanitarian awards, the Calgary White Hat award, things that say "hey you, nobody, you're a somebody now because you made a difference". These are not broadcast on TV with much glitz, glam, fanfare and high priced commercials. Why not, they certainly award something more important than five boys now ben who sing together and have never picked up an instrument or even written a song. Yes, I am bitter. The world would be better if we awarded useful people. Imagine, the award for most heroic fire fighter, or best cab driver, or even most friendly doctor. Things would be better, because people in professions that matter would try even harder, and we'd all benefit.

Let's get away from this trivial man/woman stuff and ask the Nuclear Option question.

If you have a dark side, you will appreciate:-

What's the point of it all .... why bother ?

(sorry, Laurie, if this presses too many buttons)

It does press many buttons, maybe because I ask that question a lot these days. I'm still smiliing so the need to apologize is not important, I am fine with it.

I drive in heels quite a bit, usually three or four inches, but I have managed five. Yes, automatic transmission is easy. It takes some practice, and one must leave a bit of extra distance in case reaction time is cut down for moving the foot from accelerator to brake pedal. It gets easy, with practice. The key for me was learning how to position my foot on the floor. Resting on the back of the heel does not work, because in heels, this shifts to the heel tip, and puts the foot at an awkward angle. My foot rests on the back side, and the heel runs along the floor of the car. I find I have better control this way, as my foot has more contact and stability.

Break it off clean, quick and easy. If you are always going to feel that something is missing because she will never wear heels, dump her ignorant ass as soon as you can, and find someone that can make you happy. A relationship needs to fulfill you and your desires, not just placate you for a few weeks. You will never be happy with a woman who will never wear heels. You may have to settle for a part time heel wearer, but at least you know you will get what you need from time to time. So look for something to make you happy.

I do not feel out done, not to worry. That would not matter, as everyone should share the daily experiences. If someone has a better shoe day than me, all I can do is be happy! I'm not out to be the best, Fox, just to be myself, so please post, and everyone else as well.

I'll let you know if it ever happens...
