Ana's shoes.
Feb. 6th, 2005 10:59 pmAna's got this pair of sneakers. They don't have zippers, they have a velcro strap, and they're sparkly red. I am *so* jealous of these sneakers. Alas, her feet are just a little bit smaller than mine are, and I cannot steal her sneakers from her, even if they are really cool.
She also has a pair of space boots. Did I mention that I'm jealous of my niece's footwear yet? It's pathetic.
Talking about footwear, I went barefoot the other day. On the ice. That's exactly why I was barefoot, in fact, because I kept slipping, and I figured my bare feet would have more traction than my shoes. I was right, too, but by the time I got home my feet were screaming from a combination of cold and salt. The cold wasn't so bad, but the salt can kill a nice day out.

But I remember running down to my sister's then-house (two houses down and one across) and back out of a misunderstanding, in summer. I literally burnt my soles. They hurt for the whole day, but were fine the day after.

and it was the middle of the day, so the concrete had been hot for some time.

1. It wasn't that cold out. No, really, despite the existance of ice on the ground, it wasn't that cold out. The only cold spots where were the ice was, the rest of it was fine.
2. I wasn't out there that long anyway, just like two or three blocks from my home :)
3. Trust me, it was better than slipping on ice on that hill, landing in the busy street.
