let’s talk about my uggs

yes…i know it’s summer and hot and i am wearing my uggs…do you all really think i’m that stupid…but, thinking about it now…you must think i’m an idiot…because why would a person intentionally wear hot, sweaty uggs in the summer heat in arizona AND after doing hot yoga…why? well, i had bad surgery 30 something years ago, and i can’t wear flip flops or any cute shoes for that matter…haven’t we discussed this already…the looks are endlessssssss…it wasn’t actually bad surgery…the bulls. yes. the chicago bulls foot doc is the one that operated on me…but, in 2-4% of surgeries there’s this stupid thing that has a name that i don’t currently remember that can happen…and it happened to me:/…it’s an overcorrection that gives the X-ray of my left foot a very fucking creepy look and as i was 20 when i had surgery and had no pain i paid very little attention…right foot…same surgery same time…looks great…

i balance…i run…i kick ass…i got proof…isn’t instagram all a girl needs?? i saw three foot docs a few years before my Dx…2 said no pain…leave it alone…the other guy…the sports guy…the one who handles “athletes” like me…he wanted to cut me open…possibly cause me pain forever…i wouldn’t be able to do yoga and running, well…out of the question…i’d be immobile…that doesn’t work for me…you know that;) so…i listened to the other 2 and just continued on…and i have no pain…once in a while if it rains…and it’s rare…my left foot has phantom like pain…but, you see me do yoga…you see me run…could i would i run or do yoga if it hurt…i mean i ran a little when it hurt last year:) …but, i’m not an asshole…uggs are like my best friend…if you’ve been to Hawaii with me…at least one pair is coming with. i fly in nothing else…duh

i love shoes too…which is the craziest thing…bags…jackets…shoes…those are my things…because i wear so little else lololol…uggs are a fashion statement now for me…and they make my feet feel good. i am incredibly lucky considering they broke both of my feet when I was twenty and put the big toes and the pinkies back together:) you don’t need the dirty details…it was a challenging surgery…most people don’t do both sides of both feet at the same time…but, i guess i was a little warrior back then too…i’m not an idiot…i know it’s hot as fuck…and if i had stinky sweaty feet i couldn’t get away with it…just another little thing to be grateful for

ps…i did not start wearing them in the summer until last year (2018)…while i was training for badwater…i ran so much i just couldn’t put anything else on my feet…and since i made it through that summer, well, i can make it through anything…non smelly feet and all:)
