Oh Plei, that sucks! (And sadder still, I can't offer to take them off your feet hands.)
Easy Bake. Flop-a-palooza. Woosh. Pop. I don't skulk.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
but I swear, I'm about ready to slice off my fucking toes if I can fit into a pair of semi-stylish shoes once the wound heals.Don't maim yourself. Unless it's the little toe. I think you can live a good life without that one.
So sorry. That just sucks, Plei...
Reminds me, I need to go through my closet and toss all of the pairs of shoes that don't fit me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I am so sorry, Plei! I feel like I stole the bootma, because the pair I bought arrived today.
Do you know anyone you can sell them to? Someone you like, so maybe you can get a teensy contact high? But not someone you hang out with all the time, so you don't have to see them too much.

ita, sadly, I think I know two people with feet about my size. I think one of them has my width issues, and they're not the other one's style.
Eh. Maybe my mother would break her all-Birks-all-the-time rule for them.

for chocolate at Moonstruck. Or, Ethel's Chocolate Lounge. Or, Chocolate Cafe. Or, Vosges.
Ooh, walking tour of the chocolate shops. And then, if I've got my refund, a stop at the Apple store to look at iPods.
ita's idea sounds good, Plei. Or, one of those trade newspapers or something? Maybe you could find something you like just as well, that way.

Kristin wears a US 6 or 6.5 depending on the shoe.

Even my local Nordstrom's flailed when attempting to fit my 6-wides.
Oh well. Now that I've vented, I feel less bad about the whole thing.

Heh. I was hoping Plei's story would be "She said it was a 6.5US, but really it was a 6.5 UK" and then I could offer to take them off her hands. Sigh. No such luck.
But I shouldn't complain--I FINALLY found a pair of boots today! I've been looking for black boots for weeks and weeks, but it's all cowboy boots and flat boots, or cheap pleather for $100 (I'll buy cheap pleather but only if it's actually....cheap). And today I popped into Bloomie's because it was next to the post office, and voila! Boot sale!
