Size 7? Well that would do it then. It is difficult to keep my anything is possible if you try attitude when faced with that bit of information. I know it can be tough. Strange, taller women, larger feet, and thus higher heels, making for taller women. This world is indeed strange.

Francis is, right, Nata. Just post! Look at me, I just type about whatever, adding a few shreds of insight, and away I went. Sometimes I can power post, which is tough, but right now it would be easy for you. Just share how you feel!

A revoltuion in honesty and sharing on the internet. I think this is great for our community. Yes, we will always be cautious, always be vigilant in the face of those who would abuse us for our trust, but I like this picture posting. It makes us seem, well, like more than just personalities.

I was not such a fan of sugar when I was younger. But I am a soda pop addict, so I suppose it would help to be young again. I can say, that skipping dessert saves money, and one day that saved money will be used for shoes. And then I can show pictures, get more attention, and be featured in more community stories! I think I should run and hide right now...

You are right, Nata. So long as some of us are wearing stiletto heels and getting people to notice, they will never go out of style in that sense, and there will always be something to talk about here, if only because some of us are out there in heels, making the difference. Of course, there are many reasons to discuss things, so fading out will never happen.

WHy do you think that, Nata? Foot size issue? Flexability? Nothing says you cannot try it out, and if it doesn't work, then you know for sure!

The Community story is fun, but commenting on it should go in a different thread. So I am starting this new topic. Why? How the heck did I get dragged into it? And dessert? I hate dessert most of the time! I think I would rather ay for drinks... Now that I cleared that up, feel free to keep writing in the community sotry, and maybe we can discuss the plot over here? Don't change the story on my account. It is a story, after all, so let it live as it will. I thought that since my name was used, I would make sure we know that I am not a dessert person, but I am glad the fictional Laurie is. I bet she would not put on extra pounds from it.

Fox, you just asked the world's second most dangerous question. What more could we want? Money, power, unlimited closet space for hundreds of pairs of shoes and boots... The world's most dangerous question is, of course, "Can you do me a favour?" Watch out for that one... If you'd like to comment on this, bring it to the general discussion area, as it will end up going there anyway.

WHo is giving up? Diversity, that's the key! Take part in everything and have fun!

Yamyam, you cannot post something here and not expect a heated debate! This is our way, we love to discuss, and we all have slightly different ideas. Isn't it fun? You posted a topic and it came to life!

Laurie seemed a little confused by the offbeat comment, but she was the type to take any compliment she could get. "Thank you for saying so, I like to think I put some effort into well worded self expression."

I might stand a certain way, I might tap a heel on the ground, sometimes a bit rhythmic tapping. I also play a bit. Slip my foot out of my shoe for a moment, slip my foot back in... Of course, the playing part is new for me, I always wore something that laced up or was sling back. Almost always, at any rate. I also like to slide a foot when turning. It makes a different sound and perhaps gets someone to notice. When working the counter for dealing with accounts, and I need something from the file closet, I tend to do that. People can see all of me, and I like to make them notice. Of course, I cannot check to see if they are noticing, I am busy digging for different information. I like to think it works...

Ask me what? Oh, yes, agrred, Inga. Light hearted banter, and thinking on similar lines, yes all of that. It just shows that limits are guidelines and everyone can have fun without going to far or doing something dumb. Silly? Yes. Dumb? No.

Debbie, you have the right of it. Dressing the way you would like and the way you look best is important.

My Patent Jante courts. Also posted on Jenny's site, but I get posts towards a promotion here, so worth reposting.

Hello! I realize some people may not visit Jenny's forum, so I decided to repost. It is also excellent practice for me as I am a writer, and certainly not informed about web coding. Expect more pictures, I think.

Like your pictures.. Somehow you look very much the way I pictured you in my mind. (I always do that when I know someone only form writing/phoning, but mostly I'm way of... )

I look the way you pictured me? Wow, and here I was changing my shade of red every few months, trying to be different all the time... and now, blonde and I will likely change that every few months as well.

Maybe you are talking about something that goes beyond hair... ??

Thank you for liking my pictures.

Sad to report, no new shoes today. Being a poor girl is never easy. Okay, not poor, really, but certainly I am not a girl with extra money on hand most of the time. Life is expensive and filled with problems. Fraught with danger, maybe? Family members need help, bills are being paid, prices go up all of the time, the government is inept... We may have to wait a month or two before I can go for new shoes. It is a sad reality, but nothing can be done about it. I hope no one is disappointed.

As for limits, since Melissa mentioned it, there are so few they hard to remember. I think the general rules about being respectful in postings and what have you, are the only limits we can have! Otherwise, there's a place for you to talk about what you like, and if not, someone can make one!

Charlie, how did you get out of telling us, no one is forcing you Slick, that's what people do to hair, isn't it? Charlie, I am amused. You are patting yourself on the back for being slick and we would not have noticed otherwise. Yes, you are fun, and if you are not as much fun at work, don't ever log on at work, the rest of us would wonder who had stolen your user name.

Sorry, Anonymous, I have not been as "lucky". Calgary is filled with access grates to underground power vaults and water systems, all laid out across the entire side walk. I have become quite skilled at keeping my bootheels out of the spaces in those grates. Okay, granted, they do have foot prints on them for stepping, but in the winter, they are more of a hazard as these little plates do not react well with snow. Consider it excellent training for just that situation.

Cut and paste that link into your browser, and go over to Jenny's to read why I decided to let everyone have a peek, albeit an old picture.

You cannot direct link from here, so you need to copy it out into a new browser window I believe. Even then it gets tricky, so be warned everyone.

Try to hilight the link from right to left, and when it goes yellow, copy. If it says copy shortcut, then you need to keep trying. Don't ask me why.

Flowers die quick. Shoes take a long time to wear out. You must be right, Heeldog.

Sighting at work, possibly a new girl, young, must be a phone jockey for sales. Short dress, long jacket, four inch heeled platforms that were far too strappy for our weather. -20 C and this girl is going outside (for a cigarette break?) and back in, wearing strappy platforms. Even I have more common sense than that... I wear something with a closed toe at least!

Boring? An insult to them, a compliment to us? I know many fun people who wear heels only on rare occassions or never. Especially people I work with.
