I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

They seem so charming! Are they reputed for crap taste (I'm not including teabagging here -- that should be irrelevant. Please let it be irrelevant).

I don't know about how they decorate their apartments or what books they read, but one of them, at least, is a big Red Sox fan. (They were here over the weekend.) I guess it is a funnier joke if you know who Carl Yastrzemski and David Ortiz are. (Neither is particularly girlish.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I guessed they were ball players -- it was the taste part I was wondering about.

Are these shoes dainty?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They are borderline.

What's wrong with me????

You like big shoes?

I cannot lie.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I would have just said no, not dainty. I think you need something with a thinner heel to qualify as dainty.

What is even happening?

I think if they were grey/silver, you could get away with those, ita. The thick heel ought to be mostly disguised by the dress and the front of your foot. I don't think I'd wear black shoes with that dress. The dress has a whole soft vibe about it.

I tried it on with silver shoes. But I'm not going to wear silver stilettos again. You don't think she looks okay?

I agree with Cindy that those shoes could work, and would probably be better in a lighter color.

So, I literally can't do any work still. I feel like maybe I should go home. Not that I mind sitting here, it just feels so useless. I guess I'll do some homework....
