The Agony of De Feet

People, sometimes my own asshattery has consequences even I couldn't have seen coming.

When I sprained my poor pinky toe a couple of weekends ago, I hoped maybe it would cooperate by next week. (That's right, it's not broken. The X-ray says no, but that's not exactly a good thing. Sprains hurt more and heal slower I'm told.) After practicing in my shoes yesterday for a couple of hours, I can clearly see that it will not. People, it was the size of a sausage link when I pulled it out of said lovely shoes. I'm going to try taping it today an see if that helps matters, but I'm not holding out much hope.

What's a girl to do? I have a week and a half until the concert, the perfect dress, and no shoes to wear. Crap, crap, crap.

Anybody have any suggestions?

The only thing that I can offer is pointing and laughing - just like the good old days.

Beautiful blog, btw...

I'm a-gonna go with the pointing and laughing thing. And whoever told you that is right - sprains ARE worse and slower to heal. Especially when you practiced IN YOUR SHOES (Which I know you had to do, but HONESTLY!)

All I can tell you is this. No heels. I realize I just put a stake through your heart, but if you do this concert in heels, you will spend MONTHS recovering. And that's if you don't give yourself permanent damage, which will make wearing heels painful at all.

There HAVE to be pretty flats out there somewhere. Or you could wear a floor-length skirt and birkenstocks. heehee

Shame on you from the entire gay and metro community, nay, nation. Not to mention the fashionistas everywhere. Birkenstocks indeed. *snort*

Yeah, the problem is the dress. And my sense of fashion. There is no possible way I can wear flats with a Post reviewer coming, and seriously, God kills a kitten every time a soloist walks out on stage in flats. Seriously.
