Lupus Shoes

Today’s prompt for the 30 Days of Writing Challenge hosted by We Work For Cheese is “Stiletto Heels.”

I used to have so many Stilettos only in the 80′s they were called “pumps.”

I loved my pumps!

I had pumps of every color and I wore them every single day.

Jeans, button-up top with neon colors (“hot” colors, as they were called in the 80′s), with a matching tank top under the shirt, collar popped.  No stockings.  Bare feet or sometimes very thin socks with a little ruffle around the top of the sock and pumps to match the shirt.

I rocked that outfit!

LOVE the suspenders! Baby blue pumps with this outfit to match the suspenders.

Black pumps that day

Now?

Fuck those damn shoes!

Lupus Arthritis in the toe has made me hate heels.  Stilettos, pumps, whatever people call them these days.

I walk down the street wearing my New Balance sneakers (or my work boots that the doc said I should have orthopedics placed inside) and I see people walking down the street with heels on and I cringe.

Part of me worries about the pain they will feel in a few years from torturing their feet so much now.

And part of me wants to see their ankles snap in half because I am jealous that I can’t wear them anymore.

But this video?  Makes me feel a lot less jealous!

What happened to Number 8?  Where exactly did she go when she fell??  Hahahahahahah!
