      i want new feet.  

       Especially after spending the last 6 hours walking and walking and walking - without benefit of sneakers.  However, i did get a new skirt and sweater set and comfy sweater and top to wear with a suit i'm wearing to the Christmas - oh wait - politically correct - Holiday party tomorrow night.  And buy some clothing for a set of 5 year old twins girls, that the office is sponsoring this season.  

       So much fun was had, but i'm betting by tomorrow night, i'll walk into the building and find a chair - especially since i intend to wear the killer heels.  

       i do have to seriously look into this foot pain thing though.  It's getting worse and i am positive i'm not quite that old that i should be suffering this much.  Probably too many years of wearing cheap shoes and for some bizarre reason i get deeply calloused right in the ball of each foot.  Where most of the pain is.  Time for a podiatrist (or however the heck you spell that anyway.)

       i find it a bit disconcerting to be shopping with 'vanillas'.  Well more than shopping - it's a socializing thing as well.  But i was home for so long before going back to work - and not in the outside environment at all - so now i find it strange to hang around with people who aren't involved in D/s in any way.  

      A few times i found myself about to say something, only to realize that first of all i'd be outing myself and second, they'd probably thing i was very daft.  It's hard to hang with a bunch of girls and not talk about your relationship even a little bit.  And some things are dead giveaways - such as when the friend i was with was looking at corselettes - i commented that Himself had bought me a custom made corset.  That's a far stretch from the pretty little thing hanging in the closet.... and her eyebrows went up accordingly.

     The weird part is i think this woman would find a niche in this lifestyle.  Most likely as a dominant since she does have a very determined sort of personality - but there's not a chance i'll ever talk to her about it.  There's wisdom in leaving one's personal life firmly out of the office.

     Off to sleep and resting sore feet!
