Shoes That I Have

Realized I have Footwear Autism, or something. A few things came together to realize this. My sweetie runs a shoe store, so I've been getting the good shoe hookup for the past buncha years. A while ago, she got me some shoes for around the house, and I loved them. I think they were some Crocs with a fuzzy lining. Loved wearing those things. Which made me realize that I hate walking around barefoot! I don't really like just socks either. I don't like the sensation! I hate to feel the floor on my feet! Also, I'm a big ol' toe walker so if I'm not wearin shoes, I'm toe walkin'. Probably because I hate the sensation of floor on feet! Footwear helps me walk normally, which is probably better for me, yeah? So I had shoes for in the home, I had shoes for out of the home, and I had to get non-slip work shoes too. That was the start, kinda snowballed from there. Of course I kept getting new shoes, and I naturally started using them for different purposes. I don't think this was super conscious, until maybe a month ago when I realized I had a bunch of different pairs for different utilities. And I try not to use them outside of that utility! It's really nice actually. Gone are the days of me wearing the same beat-up slip-on Vans everywhere all the time! Here's a list of a lot of my shoes and their utilities: Vans Lizzies for skateboarding All black New Balances for theatre tech blacks Non-slip Crocs for working food service Slip on Uggs for walkin around my home Onitsuka Tigers for active walkin around my home (housework, cleaning, lotsa movin) Shitty Ikea slippers for walkin around post-shower until I can get socks on (wet feet on floor is a big no) Slip-on Vans for quick going outside Big ol winter boots for snow time, both for if I'm walking through snow, or just if I expect to be walking on ice because they're good at not slippin. Hi-top Vans with a fuzzy lining for more casual going out in the Winter to keep me warm I got some New Balances and Pumas for exercise (but I don't exercise so they're in p good condition, I'll use them for Ring Fit or going on walks) Worn out shoes become shit shoes for doing outside work or whatever Got a buncha other stuff for just goin' out, different cute Converse n Vans n junk
