Goodbye, old friends... but oh so worth it.

That is my shoes, of course.  Some beat up bad, some worn never or only once...  many goth circa 90s, you know, the kind of buckle boots you can't buy anymore. 2 pairs of thigh high, 1 veggie-patent lace up the front boots and 1 patent leather boots.... several really pretty granny boots, etc.  Also, some boring shoes purchased for office work.

My feet seem to have gone down at least half a size, for some unknown reason. I've been having issues with my shoes/boots as a result, maybe I should get knocked up and start wearing some of my bigger pairs!

...actually I have a pretty big shoe surplus/graveyard to get rid of myself, and some busted up boots I desperately wish to repair. I should try that. It'd take less time and, y'know, pregnancy. :D

I feel kind of silly about having bought these the other day

dear shoe memories

I am sentimental too!

I have shoes that carry many memories, ones i know I will not wear, and some I am currently wearing as i have practically no cloths after leaving Santa Cruz.

I have a pair of leather mary janes my ex-girlfriend, Jodi, bought me. They are falling apart but they are my only every day shoes. I am planning on buying a new pair, and strangely think of the pain/ loss of throwing these old shoes away.

I've fixated on sadness at throwing other monumental foot wear away before.

I think River actually got me started fixating on objects, she used to tell me when i was about 3 or 4 that my food would be sad if I didn't eat it, and as a dutiful, puppy dog, little sister, i believed every word! :) I', kinda joking, but i do wonder why I get so emotionally attached to objects.

Bless your shoes! Goood bye, friends.

on another note, my Mum was a size 10 shoe forever and recently got checked only to find she has grown to a 12, or some such. (maybe 13!)

Scary, as i was last an 8.5, but now rock a nice size 9.
