Last summer I think wore shoes other than flip-flops maybe twice. Somewhere along the line I joined the Flip-Flop Cult.
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

I can't do them. Flip flops end up hurting my feet. In Suzi-World, they are only good for going to and from a pedicure.

I had a Bad Experience with flip-flops as a kid. It involved an unexpected 5 mile hike and four blisters the width of my thumb. I just can't bring myself to wear them anymore.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Flip-flops are usually the only sandals that don't give me blisters, but they need to have REALLY thick soles because I wear them out so fast.

Megan, my sympathies to you and your MIL.
Trudy, how about flowers and a really nice vase?
David, I got my hair cut too - it's shorter than usual!

Thanks for all the punctuation and ma. It's appreciated!
I also got my hair cut yesterday, to correct a bad cut I got on Tuesday. It's pretty short now! Ieeee....

I watched Lane on GG dye her hair purple...now I wanna do that. Joblessness and being economically disenfranchised should mean not having to dress like a citizen if I don't feel like it. People already look anyways, although Mom hates it when I talk about that. Like if I don't, I'm sitting in a tasteful fashion accessory. Whatever. I'm already not going to blend, maybe I should live in neon, you know?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
tonight I get Perkins, juliana, a murder mystery play and booze - does that count? I'm sure there will be cabana boys basking around juliana and I can bask in her shadow.
errrr. I am going to have to be all tentatively on tonight, I'm afraid. (Juliana, I sent you an email earlier, but if it got to you too late, just let me know, and I will paypal you if I don't make it.)
Stoopid back, stoopid gravity, and stoopid me.

Nana korobi, ya oki. (Fall down seven times, stand up eight.) ~Yuzuru Hanyu/Japanese proverb
erika, I think you should get a custom wheelchair made with round tubing and painted in neon colors. Then, you could dye your hair to match (or in contrast; your hair, your choice) and get tattoos in random places that anyone can see. I say, if ya got it, flaunt it! Just because "it" is a wheelchair, doesn't mean you can't make a personal statement. I think there's been too much of an effort to "mainstream" many types of handicaps, as if by doing that the handicaps will just go away. They won't. So, make it a fashion statement, at least.
