Erynne

Still going at it. I've worn them for 2 hours a night the past 2 nights. Really trying to work on ankle flexibility. I think that not being able to straighten my legs really throws off my balanace.

I've had a pair of ballet boots for about a year or so. I was bummed when I first got them that I couldn't stand in them much less walk. I've only worn them a handfull of times over the year. Mostly for activities that take place laying in bed rather than walking around if you get my drift. Well today i decided it was time to start working on it. I finally found a set up of thick socks and padding that allowed me to stand up. I took a couple of very tenetive wobbly steps. I was able to stand up from my chair and walk to the wall and back. about 20 feet total. I'm going to continue working on that until I can do it well and then expand the distance.

If someone were to post defamitory video of me on youtube I would ask to have it removed on the basis that companies aren't allowed to use a person's likeness for profit without permission. I guess it's kind of a grey area of the law so i'm not sure that it would work but I'd sure give it a shot.

Hey I just thought I'd share a few of my freestyle pics.

So I got this new pair of boots. They're not high heels but... well we have to have some flats. Well the problem is that they're knee high, 30 eyelet boots but no speed laces or zipper to allow for easy entry and exit. I have to unlace them about halfway down to get my foot out and it takes about 5 minutes per boot to put them on!

Does anyone know of a way to retrofit a zipper down the inside or add speedlaces to the eyelets?

A while back I was at the grocery store wearing heels. I had been wearing them all day and kind of forgot that I was wearing them. I went to stand up on my tip toes to get something off a high shelf and I wouldn't go up. I was like what the why can't I? oh yeah..i'm wearing heels, already on my tip toes.
