coming of age

Is there any correlation between comfort and dollars paid on a shoe? And does it matter if they're made in the mountains of Italy or an undisclosed location? Anyway...who knew that purchasing a stylish heeled sandal could make me feel like I had arrived at womanhood? Perhaps this is similar to the feeling of reaching biker status after steering a bike by the seat around tourists in the slender walkways across the Ballard Locks. Or amateur photographer status after taking a great night shot. Or poet status after scribbling several unintelligible lines on a napkin. Or tech-geek status after checking email twice at a stoplight. Ah well...I suppose self-definition ends up being fairly meaningless anyway...smile...

Gorgeous, absolutely gorgeous. You may be an accountant by profession but you are first and foremost a woman and now you're a woman with some pretty dazzling footwear! I hope you wear them with everything and stand up straight and just dare anyone to mess with you :-)
What's the brand, by the way? I might need a pair of those because I'm pretty sure I don't have any that color or style and I have some extra spots in my shoe storage thing...
