liz gave me a pair of clog birkenstocks that are too big for her. they fit really well and aren't already formed to her feet. however, my feet are not used to them so the leather is giving me blisters. no doubt because i've been subconsciously influenced by brendan, i'm still wearing them even though my feet are sore so they toughen up. last night i gave them a fresh polishing using brendan's shoe polish supplies. they look brand new. b's pretty fond of mink oil so i thought i'd give it a try. i like that i'm married to a man who shines his shoes. he's so into it that i bought him a proper shoe polishing kit last year for his birthday.
actually, last night was pretty productive. i also vacuumed out the car in the rain. part of me wondered if i might get electrocuted but neither the rain nor the vacuum were very strong so i was ok.
AND i volunteered at the hospital and met all sorts of lovely people. i also saw melissa! i was sitting talking to a 94 year old woman when melissa walked past the room and saw me. it was so fun. i was super conflicted because i wanted to run over and hug her, but the lady was chatting and didn't realized i'd just spotted a friend. it made me smile for the rest of the evening. i also saw meghan from next there too, she works in nutrition and was delivering food to the patients i was visiting. fun fun fun.
you know what i love about having hairy legs? that upon seeing my hairy legs that guys instantly stop thinking of me as a sexual object and start thinking of me as a person (perhaps even as an equal), because my body is of interest to them.

body glide! it lets things glide on your skin so you don't get blisters until the shoes take the right shape. you can get it at running stores... looks like a stick of deodorant. prevents chafe :) i love it.
