I haven't seen my favorite aunt and uncle in 2 and 1/2 years. They are in town tonight and I have plans to eat dinner with them. I wanted to look nice for them so today I ditched the tennis shoes and jeans and I brushed the hair and put on the heels.
I normally wear tennis shoes because I work at a manufacturing plant. Actually I work in the front office of a manufacturing plant. Regardless, I have to run into the plant several times a day and dodge fork lifts, saws, and machines with big cords. Wanting to keep all of my toes, I wear shoes that will protect my feet, not ones that cause my clumsy ass to trip over anything.
I walk in and it's the first thing everybody notices: Holy shit, Jamie is taller! Gasp, we can see her feet! (My favorite receptionist made several stabs at my beloved New Balances.) All of a sudden I feel like I have to explain myself- What? These old things? Hell, the dog chewed on them or I wear heels when I'm not at work.
One lady exclaims, "Did someone make a trip to Payless?" That was the exact moment I lost my "no care" attitude. "Payless? PAYLESS? Girl, these are Steve Maddens!" Snapping of fingers and head waving may have occurred.
I'm just so sick of everything being a big deal around here.
