cute heels do not make good walking shoes

Now that the holidays are over...i have more time so i blog...HA! yeah right, school is busier than ever and with everything else i am doing there is little time. But just to keep you entertained and updated on my life here is a little story for you:

New years eves-A beautiful night is las vegas. the game plan was to park close and walk a few blocks to our desination on the strip. doesn't sound that hard. because of the short distance i put on silver heels that looked fabulous with my outfit. and that is what we did-walked a few blocks.






i go to the bathroom at mcdonalds and when i come out the plans have changed. We now need to go to the other end of the strip to see fireworks and evil kinevel jump. sounds like fun. we walk back to the car to drive a little closer. then we start on the journey. a few blocks has now turned into a few miles. i am doing just fine. after mile one-my feet start to hurt pretty bad. but who wants to be the party pooper? not me, so i did not say anything. we finally get to the strip. we celebrate the new year....except we are on the wrong side of the building and we cannot see the fireworks or evil kinevel!!! After walking a lot of the strip i cannot take it anymore. i tell jeffrey that i can no longer walk because my feet hurt so bad and they are swollen.

I then am carried piggy back style. After awhile jeffrey got tired. So i told him i would try walking again...but i could not. my feet hurt so bad i could not even fit them back into my shoes!! the statement is true-beauty is pain. so jeffrey carried me some more on his back.




Finally, jeffreys arms were getting very tired and we switched the the shoulders. This worked out quite nicely-for me at least ;-) Needless to say, i will not be wearing heels to the strip again.

I, too, made the mistake of wearing heals to walk down the strip... yeah no so good. I ended up taking off my shoes to walk back to our hotel.. that's how desperate I was. Yucky! Ha ha.
