Shoesies

[impy]

I have new icons! Huzzah! I like the new MLP, I do, so... expect me to just post random crap to use them for the next week or so. :P Sorry. This, however, is not random crap!

  I've been in need of new shoes for work since... well, it's been awhile. Every other time I went to buy them, something would come up. Sometimes it was even more than me not wanting to look for shoes. I hate shoe shopping 90% of the time. The rest of the time? I'm usually buying shoes that I will only wear once. :P Anyway, I thought I'd ask someone to keep me on track for buying 'em. After numerous recommendations for those stupid Shape-Up shoes, I decided to give it a shot, especially since the ones I was recommended are supposed to be comfortable after the initial wearing. Since I'm not expecting them to do anything beyond be shoes, I'm hopeful. Also? They went from $100 down to $57 and some change. So Applebloom's delight over the thought of having her cutie mark is exactly how I feel.

Except watching her is making me dizzy.

Have you been wearing them, and if so, how is that going?

New shoesies are pretty awesome. They have a couple of drawbacks (non-existent arches means they rub occasionally where arches should, in theory, be), and the shoes have a need for walking. Which is great the first two nights of work, and the last night in my week, but the other two when I'm chained to the register, they start to feel a bit like concrete blocks if I don't start pacing or something.
