Cruel Shoes

These would be the cruel shoes purchased last Sunday that did most of the damage to my feet. Note the spot of blood at the heel of the left shoe.

These are the pair I bought Thursday night for the sake of torturing my feet in a different place and so I don't end up in the same boat I was last weekend. My only pair of acceptable office shoes died and I had to go out and buy *something* PDQ. I like these ones quite a bit better, actually. It's the sole that really makes them-- the leather is painted to look like cherry-wood. Very neat touch.
