The Devil Wears Combat Boots

Many, and I do mean many, of my coworkers wear these, men and women alike. They want to protect their feet from getting stomped by a kid throwing a tantrum of the grande variety. Evidentially it happens during restraints but this priss can't bring herself to purchase something so damn ugly. I mean I'm ok with the black because I do wear a lot of black, but can I get something in a strappy sling back with a low heel? Hell make it a steel toed sling back. Hello? Manolo Blahnik, I see a new market for you.

J-I said that too, but not in those exact words. It was more along the lines of, "Oh, no fucking way in HELL!"

I've now wasted a good deal of time looking for something sexy in a steel toe. You are out of luck. I think you'll have to go goth.

You can get get knee high boots and put a metal plate in them. Make your own steel toed boots. Now, that's an idea.

Jethro-Thank God you're not a podiatrist!

Good god woman, can you please at least put a picture of Saddam Hussein up or something? Anything but those? You know, an update on how YOU are would be good too.

I'm sorry folks, I've just been busy, emotionally spent and tired as hell. Not to mention this freakin' heat is killin' me. I'll work something up. Sorry for the delay.

I love 'em. I would wear combat boots with a white skirt. Does that "Trailer trash" or what?

J-Miss you more!!

Brighton-Oy! Don't get me started. Humidity is a bitch too.

Inanna-Trailer trash, eh, maybe a wee bit. But that's ok, I still love you.

Is there a difference between trailer trash and red neck? If so, what?
