Stina (stinalee) | 653 comments Okay, so I am wearing a new outfit today which includes a dress that looks like a Barbie dress paired with super cute HIGH grey suede heels. I look adorable. I got the A-OK to bring my little darling dog to work, so my mom dropped her off with me about an hour ago. On my way through the parking lot, I TOTALLY fell TO MY KNEES in front of the entire showroom (my office is in a car dealership). A Grizzly Adams looking character ran out to make sure I was okay and it was hideously embarassing.

I don't know what's worse... falling for no reason, or falling because the cute shoes you're wearing are obvious death traps. Why did it have to be in front of the window? Why are shoes that are cute impossible to walk in? Why does it feel SO HIDEOUS to fall down in front of strangers? Why am I completely unconcerned by my bleeding knee, and yet SUPER concerned about Grizzly telling his family this story over dinner tonight?

smetchie | 5729 comments Kristina, you're so funny. I love you.

I wore heels for the first time in like 10 years this weekend. I walked a mile on cobblestone streets from the car, carried my 5-year-old 2 blocks in the rain, chased my 2-year-old around a dance floor for 3 hours, (drunk) and didn't fall down once. It was fucking awesome. I rock.

Stina (stinalee) | 653 comments See? I want to be THAT kind of heel wearer!! You do rock!!

Sidenote: I was wearing another tall pair of heels that I have at Target about a month ago. In the parking lot, this weirdo starts following me and when I get to the door, he says, "I like your shoes." I said, "Thank you." He followed that up with, "I bet you can't run real fast in 'em." I said, "You'd be surprised" and then trotted into the safety of the store.

WHO THE HELL SAYS THAT? Creepo McRapist... that's who.

I was just making an observation. Small talk. An ice breaker. Sheesh, give a guy a break. I'm kind of socially awkward.

You've got nice, thin wrists, too. I bet I could snap one pretty easy.

Hey Kristina, I like your neck. I'll bet my hands would fit perfectly around it. Also, you've shamed me into honesty. They were really short sensible heels. Not high and sexy at all. That's the only reason I didn't fall down.



Joshua Nomen-Mutatio (joshuanomenmutatio) See, this is why I don't wear high heels.

Kristina! I hate how I think it's so funny when someone falls. One of my students fell off the table when we were playing silent ball, and I laughed so hard even though he was hurt! I apologized, but dang! it was funny. I also laughed really hard (and still do when I remember it) when your sister fell down the stairs and landed in a puddle right at the entrance to a frat party in 1995! HahahahahaHA! and it hurt her, too, and got her all muddy and damn if I didn't laugh all night.

Stina (stinalee) | 653 comments I TOTALLY remember my sister telling me about falling down the stairs at a frat party! I'm not going to lie, I also think it's hilarious when people fall. I just don't like being the one who does it... and I fall OFTEN!! Usually it's not a big deal, but falling off your heels is just retarded, because everyone who sees it thinks, "Why is that dumb bitch wearing those shoes if she can't even walk in them?"
