Did anybody see the Scrubs where Elliott and Carla totally made the men not pay any attention to what they were saying by using the code phrase "strappy sandals?" If the guys thought the women were talking about shoe shopping, they took a mental vacation for a few minutes, and were only brought back by the phrase "lace bra" or some such.
I went shoe shopping today and I wonder why it is that I can find it a great way to kill a few (kid-less) hours, meditative even. I'm looking for the perfect summer shoe, and I have next to no $$ to spend. Even if I did, I'm so cheap that it still takes me forever to decide.
Do I buy the wedges with cork soles that are trendy, but not that comfortable? Do I go for the earthy mama sandals that aren't as cool but will make my feet feel happy in the jillion degree heat this summer? What does it mean that every single shoe I look at was made by a person working for pennies in a 2/3 world country? Do I still buy shoes? Where do I buy them if I can't afford the ones that were made fairly?
These, the questions, on my day off.

Welcome to RevGalBlogPals! I look forward to reading your posts.
Oooo... such shoe dilemmas!! I always find myself with similar struggles -- I'm so cheap (and at times simply poor) that it doesn't matter what I look at it, I won't buy it... other days, well, that's a different story!!
shoes my favourite problem... looking forward to reading more
