My love for shoes!!!!

I think I may have found a solution to my internet connection problems, albeit temporary and very slow, but I will still move on after all half bread is better than none, they say.

For those who know me, they know that I have a penchant for shoes!!!! Shoes, shoes and more shoes. High heels, flip flops, flats, slippers, boots, pumps, name it, I love shoes. How my love for shoes began or came about, I have no idea, it just kinda crept into my life and has refused to leave. Amongst all the lots, I love high heels - I used to say the higher the better. I have worn shoes ranging from 4 inches to 6inches without batting an eyelid, no leg pain, sprain or even a fall. I kept laughing at myself because it was easier for me to fall when wearing low heels than when wearing high heels - simple, I was more careful when wearing my heels.




Anyways, for the past 12 months, I have not worn heels for a while save for testing whether the shoes fit or for a couple of hours during our final departure drink. Of course, I did meet my seniors who were rocking their heels on the streets of Paris..even saw a woman in heels pushing her baby pram one day. But I didn't dare oooooo, I am sure you know the reason. So you can imagine my shock when I wore my heels on Monday and my legs felt wobbly. I deceived myself that it was because I was walking on uneven grounds but after almost tripping twice or thrice, I realised I was loosing my skills.

Yesterday was scarier!!!! I had to conclude that if my legs did not get sprained on any of the two days, I was probably not going to sprain them by wearing heels. I had to walk around a lot - shouldn't there be a memo to all offices that high heels are meant to be showed off and not for walking around!!! I had actually forgotten that one does a lot of walking around on the first few days at work. I wanted to die from leg ache...Yes, I have said it - I can imagine the number of people that are laughing out loud now. Shame on all of you - laughing at a damsel in distress.

Needless to say, I swallowed my pride and went for my cute wedges today. I felt quite better but it was also so strange not wearing my heels. Common!!! That is my logo.....there aint nothing like a pair of stilettos echoing as one sashays from one room to the other. So leg pain or not...I am gonna wear my heels. It aint easy to be a diva....so I am gonna look for my most comfortable pair and use it to get back in the game. To all those laughing already, watch out!!!!
