Firefox Posted February 26, 2002 Author Posted February 26, 2002 This is post 402 for me and the first outing in the slingbacks. I have to say I'm looking forward to the spiky boots though
Highluc Posted February 27, 2002 Posted February 27, 2002 Congratulations Firefox, would you believe I would even trade my wedges or platforms for your sling backs without hesitation? Be youself, enjoy any footwear you like and don't care about what others think about it, it's your life, not theirs. Greetings from Laurence
Carolyn Posted February 27, 2002 Posted February 27, 2002 I've got some cowboy boots or something now. I like them, the loafers were gash. If I posted here every day. I'd soon be wearing the slingbacks! ~Caz
Laurieheels Posted February 28, 2002 Posted February 28, 2002 I stalled! Oh no! I need to get back into the swing of things and get those lovely slingbacks. Can I do it? So long as I get out of these wedge things, should it matter? Haha.
ShockQueen Posted February 28, 2002 Posted February 28, 2002 Somehow I'm not sure what he would do if he was caught barefooted, unless it's changing from one pair of heels to the next. Not that I'm any different (anymore). *grin* SQ cybershockqueen@juno.com SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
Francis Posted March 1, 2002 Posted March 1, 2002 Yay! Yahoo! Whoopee!! I just graduated from wedges to 3.5" boots! Now that's more like it. I can feel slightly more normal
Laurieheels Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 This is just an update, not a celebration. I am at 160 with this post. 40 to go. I think I should have this problem cleared up by Monday for sure. If I can go to the actual site of heels online hre in Calgary and personally pick out a pair of five inch stilettos for my training program, then I will be posting entire threads of celebration, and I will be free from this hell that is the wedge. I prefer The Edge, not wedge, anyway. So cheers to 160, which I should have hit yesterday, but once again, I was busy. Sometimes it is just too easy to talk to a certain person, and time vanishes like a snowman during a strong Chinook.
IHeels Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 Love it, wonder whether modem person would know what a chinook is. I do and I'm not Canadian, it's the warm wind from the land of John Denver. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
Francis Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 or a large helicopter usually used for cargo and troop carrying both would have the same effect

Laurieheels Posted March 2, 2002 Posted March 2, 2002 Yes, Chinook, one should drop by for tomorrow. Why is it not here today? Saturday is for going out and doing things, and Sunday should be the cold day with snow, so I can enjoy all of my baking and cooking and what have you. What have I? Pierogies, I hope if tomorrow is a good day. Chinnoks are good, they bring warm weather, melt snow, and allow me to wear the shoes I would wear. Without them, I am stuck with my beat up boots and suffer at three inches. Such is life...
IHeels Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 Very Polish, make sure the fillings are nice, something carbo is good. Enjoy. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
Laurieheels Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 I will have an excellent cottage cheese and potato filling, it tastes wonderful. I made them once, and they were great. Considering I stole a recipie from Martha and made it better (I tend to do that with her recipies) I am quite proud, especially since I got it right my first time. I'm still not going to cooking school. I don't think they allow short skirts and heels for a chef. Baggy striped pants seem to be the rage, matched with clogs. How horrid.
IHeels Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 I'm not a chef either, just read the odd cook book. My attire also, might not conform to that of chef's. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
Francis Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 just get yourself a big tall flimsy hat and you'll fit in
ShockQueen Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 Less than 10 to do before I get into something stylish! WOO-HOOOO!!!! Kitten heels, here I come! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
Laurieheels Posted March 3, 2002 Posted March 3, 2002 Big tall hats, what does that have to do with cooking? Why are chefs wearing them? A kerchif or a hair net or a simple little hat would do the same trick! Or is it a way for the chefs to be seen over everyone else? Height as status, but instead of heels, they use hats. Well no silly hats for me! The pierogies were wonderful, by the way, and enough were made for a BIG bag to go into the freezer. my bread tastes good, but did not turn out to look as it should. But as long as it tastes good...
IHeels Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Hat, pretty hard when one's hair is 25 to 30 inches long, ie nearly to my butt. Hanky too small, hair net - yeah that will probably work. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
jo-jo Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 yipee :grin at last out of those horrible loafers now I am starting to feel much better - got to get to those slingbacks jo-jo xx Don't ask me how I walk in them just try a pair
Francis Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 I remember when my hair was nearly that long any longer and I'd be able to wipe my arse with it unfortunately, work demands meant that it had to be cut a very sad day !! but now that I'm not hacking down trees and building revertments and bridges from them I can grow it again
Laurieheels Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 And to think, I decided to cut my hair back from mid back to shoulder and then to a bobbish style just a bit longer than my chin. Certainly a different fashion trend than is being touted here. Is there something men find interesting about women with long hair? What does it do? For me, all it did was take forever to try and even longer if I wished to switch my shade of red. 2 boxes of colour is too expensive when I get the whim.
Laurieheels Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Well, this is it. 200. I am FREE of those freaky wedge things. Wedges are a way to cut vegetables and fries, aka chips. They are used to hold open doors. I suppose some people can use the door stops for shoes, that's great for them. Not for me! 200! Streamers and Balloooooooons falling from the air. And it is another monumental day. Why? Today the search ended, new shoes! So go ready some other section and get an eyefull of type! And you thought I was posting a lot last week???? Look out!
Highluc Posted March 4, 2002 Posted March 4, 2002 Lauri, I'm sure if you could see a graphic depiction of the number of postings you did over the different time periods since you joined, its shape would look like a wedge. Keeping that rythm up will be difficuld so as from now I expect it will look more like a platform. Please don't attempt to produce a spike. Greetings from Highluc anyway. Be youself, enjoy any footwear you like and don't care about what others think about it, it's your life, not theirs. Greetings from Laurence
Laurieheels Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 I spiked in my first two days, actually. I have been up and down, so it is a saw. Or maybe, the mouth of a Tiger, many teeth, some longer than others. I am too unpredictable to assign a shape to my posting patterns anyway. I like that.
IHeels Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 That's better the heels more spikey, more me, wooo hoo! Think this is #300. Inga HEELS are POWER the HIGHER the BETTER.
ShockQueen Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 I think this is it! Number 50! WOO-HOO! I'm OUTTA those cowboy boots and into something more stylish! On to the next hurdle! SQ.....still busting societal molds with a smile...and a 50-ton sledge!
Highluc Posted March 5, 2002 Posted March 5, 2002 Looks like I lost my kitten heels (not practical in winter and inappropriate of a man my age). I'm glad to be on wedges, but am aspiring for a better style on top of that sole (these look good for grandma). I wouldn't be caught dead in those on the streets, but think they would be very practical for home wear. Be youself, enjoy any footwear you like and don't care about what others think about it, it's your life, not theirs. Greetings from Laurence
Firefox Posted March 6, 2002 Author Posted March 6, 2002 I've got a pair from Next like those wedges, that I use at home for slippers. Actually they are a bit narrower heel. Congratulations to everyone on their promotions, especially Inga; 4" is always the first big acehivement!
Laurieheels Posted March 6, 2002 Posted March 6, 2002 Wow, I hit 200, Inga hit 300, do I need to spend another week of furious posting to get to 300 as well? I am jealous now! I need four inch heels here as well... <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: Laurieheels on 2002-03-06 04:34 ]</font>
