[nothingshocksmeanymore]

7. I strive to one day

be so idle that I sit around my house taking pictures of my sneakers and posting them on the internet:rofl:

[progmom]

11. you are a good mocker

I will grant you that.

I immediately got all indignant, went to post about how I'm soooooo not idle...and then I remembered that I invited you to mock me. Sigh.....

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

13. Thanks for being a good sport

nice shoes, btw :D

[progmom]

18. you know that i think you rock the casbah

[PartyPooper]

3. Shoe horns don't work on those kind of shoes.

That's what I've always found.

:D

:hi:

[progmom]

6. how right you are

it's all about getting the right approach to the shoe...

[Huckebein the Raven]

[progmom]

They are unbelievably comfortable.

[RevolutionaryActs]

9. Oh yeah..... I have better shoes!

[progmom]

12. maybe nsma will mock you too now

she's a very good mocker.

[RevolutionaryActs]

20. Pffffttt, I ain't askeered of nsma!

I say bring on the mocking. :silly:

[KitchenWitch]

19. Those are way out

Love those shoes...do not let the badgers at them.

[RevolutionaryActs]

24. I'll beat the badgers off with my purse!

And the pins say:

1) I blame you.

2) If you are not outraged you are not paying attention.

2) War is not the answer.

4) No war, but that one shows up pretty clearly huh?


And my favorite pin....





Needless to say, I make quite a statement when I out. :silly:

[KitchenWitch]

31. NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!

Love your buttons!

One of my buttons says "Lobotomies for Republicans...It's the Law"

[RevolutionaryActs]

35. LOL! I like that!

One of my mom's friends has one that says, "make the scary republican go away"


:7 :hi:

[JVS]

14. You didn't decide to go with these shoes instead?

[progmom]

21. i don't even know how to respond to that

i have a pair of 3 1/2 inch heels - those are hard enough to walk on...

[JVS]

22. They're for the sophisticated lady, who likes to fall down

You can buy them here http://www.exoticfashionmall.com

I think they might just be for show.

[progmom]

23. they go up to size 15?????

Holy cats.
I thought I had big feet. Sheesh.

[JVS]

25. Sounds like they might have some men buying these

[progmom]

I really don't want to ask how you found this site.

[JVS]

[KitchenWitch]

33. I love to meet a woman with a firm understanding

LOL - Big footed women unite!

[progmom]

37. you bet!

Ever shop in the Tall Girl store? They have lots of bigger sized shoes.

[KitchenWitch]

41. Our Tall Girl does not carry shoes :(

but we have a Nordstroms by us, and they are noted for carrying shoes in extended sizes. I also shoe shop by catalog and in Chicago - better selection than here in the Twin Cities - and I get to go watch outdoor baseball there!

[Huckebein the Raven]

[Misunderestimator]

50. That's just scary!

[Cadence]

26. I've been thinking about getting a pair lately.

I saw some at the store the other day, and I think I might get some. Of course I don't know if I can rock the camo the way only a progmom can... :shrug:

[progmom]

32. i'm not generally a camo girl

but these were blue camo, and they made me happy, so i went with it. :P

[Cadence]

38. I think they're cool.

Excellent choice. :D

I'm good. How you doin? :hi:

[progmom]

Though I am posting late to piss off my husband with whom I am currently having a minor squabble. :P

[Cadence]

42. I'm sorry.

So I guess tonight wouldn't be a good night to wear your new shoes to bed huh?

Maybe tomorrow.

[progmom]

44. heh heh

Chuck Taylors in bed?

[Floogeldy]

34. I'd rather see your toes.

If they look really good, I might. ;)

B-)

[progmom]

40. i'll consider that request for another time

[RevolutionaryActs]

[Nicole]

[JimmyJazz]

[deutsey]

49. Are these shoes the subject of this song?

In These Shoes?
Kristy MacColl

I once met a man with a sense of adventure
He was dressed to thrill wherever he went
He said let’s make love on a mountain top
Under the stars on a big hard rock
I said in these shoes?
I don’t think so
I said honey, let’s do it here.

So I’m sitting at a bar in guadalajara
In walks a guy with a faraway look in his eyes
He said I’ve got as powerful horse outside
Climb on the back, I’ll take you for a ride
I know a little place, we can get there for the break of day.
I said in these shoes?
No way, jose
I said honey, let’s stay right here.

No le gusta caminar. no puede montar a caballo
(I don’t like to dance, I can’t ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar? es un escandolo
(how can I dance? it’s a scandal)

Then I met an englishman
Oh he said
Won’t you walk up and down my spine,
It makes me feel strangely alive.
I said in these shoes?
I doubt you’d survive.
I said honey, let’s do it.
Let’s stay right here.

No le gusta caminar. no puede montar a caballo
(I don’t like to dance, I can’t ride a horse)
Como se puede bailar? es un escandolo
(how can I dance? it’s a scandal)

:evilgrin:

[progmom]

51. did you know that i am a HUGE kirsty maccoll fan???

I love Tropical Brainstorm, and am devastated that it's her last record. :cry:

[deutsey]

52. No I didn't know that, but I'm not surprised!

And, I agree, she was a great talent taken from us too soon.

:evilfrown:

[progmom]

54. you've got me listening to Kirsty on my iPod now

:loveya:

[deutsey]

55. I heard "In These Shoes?" on the radio the other day

which is why I thought of it when I saw your shoes. The two just sorta went together for some reason.

[deutsey]

53. I bought a pair of shoes from Adbusters

http://adbusters.org/metas/corpo/blackspotsneaker/orderv1.html



I LOVE these shoes. Very comfortable, sturdy, anti-corporate, and not made in a sweatshop. I highly recommend them.

These are the V1 style. The new V2 style suck, imho.
