I am doing a two day posty. It's about 11:50ish on Saturday evening. I was taking a shower a few minutes ago and wondering how I was going to make it through tomorrow. In case you missed it on the facebooks, I managed to skewer my foot...TWICE..in less than 3 seconds on some rusty nails out on the carport. This was Thursday. If you have never had a puncture wound on the bottom of your foot before, let me just inform you now...it hurts like hell and you can't walk very well. I'm actually walking somewhat like a giraffe right now. It's not the most graceful thing you have ever seen. So I am worried about tomorrow. Mass, my mom's house for lunch(with her entire church there too), then to the in-laws for dinner/birthday celebrations. I had this idea. Since the puncture wounds are on the middle of my foot and the heel, I can only bare pressure on the tip of my foot and toes. Well, when I wear insanely high heels, that's all I bare pressure on anyway! Brilliant! Maybe I don't have to walk like a giraffe tomorrow! So I jumped(umm, hopped, more or less, not so gracefully) out of the shower. Wrapped myself in a towel and ran(umm, still hopping, actually, but faster than I had been hopping all the same) to my closet to grab my highest pair of high heels. The ones I never wear because they are stupid high. I slip them on. Holy.crap. I can flipping walk. Painfully, but without tears.
Now I haven't been able to wear my heels that are higher than 1 1/2" since my ankle sprain(coincidentally the same foot as my nail puncture). That was...umm, I dunno, late February? Early March? I thought this might be a problem, but fortunately the pain from my puncture wounds covers up the pain from the weak ankle.
Wish me luck tomorrow. I'll let ya know how it goes. This should be really interesting, or painful. Either way, I will blog tomorrow night about it.
(the black/floral shoes pictured here? Yeah. those are the ones. Seriously, wish me luck.)
