Quality over Quantity

I went to the gym alone this morning....I stayed for 45 mins & 7 of those minutes were wasted on the sexy eliptical machines because my thighs felt like they were on fire......so needless to say...I don't wanna fucking talk about it *angry face*. It was good therapy though. 

After my workout I went home, woke my son up to get ready for school, showered and got dressed for work.  I tried on like 10 different outfits to finally find something to wear and wondered to myself, why do I go through this every time I have to look for clothes? Why cant the last outfit I choose have been the first outfit I picked out? Baffling!  I slipped on a pair of shoes from the line of shoes that are starting to build up against my bedroom wall, due to the fact that my shoe closet is overflowing. After I was dressed, I left home to go pick up one of my friends, who is having transportation issues until the end of the week *I'm nice like that :)* I let her drop me off at a Lil cafe/restaurant close my job so that I could pick up breakfast on the way in.

After I picked up my breakfast, I headed off on my 5 min trek to the office.  For whatever reason, today I chose to wear my cheap $48 shoes.. nowadays..thanks to this fucking recession - $48 buys you a $20 shoe. As I'm walking, I feel my feet sliding further and further through the keyhole front of the shoe.  It was to the point where I felt my toes literally teasing the road.  If I had to walk 2 more minutes, they probably would have gotten toe road rash.  As I make my decent uphill to get to the main entrance of my office building, my feet start to feel unsure in my $48 shoes.  Once I get inside, I look at my reflection in the mirror and notice that my $48 shoes have a lean...wtf? This is only the 3rd time Ive worn these $48 shoes.  So I head for the elevator and my ankle starts feeling a little unsure and shaky...Lord, please don't let me fall or trip in these damn $48 shoes!

Ding! Okay, AMEN I made it to my floor with no incidence.  I step off the elevator and what happens???? Nooo, of course I didnt fall but my $48 shoe heel gets caught in the safety rugs that have been placed outside the elevator.  The rugs are there as a precaution but in actuality they are a cheap shoe hazard. This hitch of course, hurts my ankle, which has been sprained twice before and now may have been re-sprained thanks to the hazardous - precautionary rugs.  So I finally get my shoe unhitched without falling, but now I am forced to limp to my desk cause my ankle is throbbing from the trauma..FML! I should have worn my $89 shoes today.

Moral of the story:
1..Having a lot of shoes does not mean they are good for your feet
2. Fuck heels
3. If you are going to wear cheap shoes, get dropped off at work so you only have to walk to your desk
