As a dancer, we had to learn your approach in order to maintain balance even when tap dancing up/down a staircase.. Made long military marches a breeze for me too! Even works while jogging, but a lot harder to sustain for too long of a distance but helps when you hit that 'jogging wall' at the midway mark.

Yes, I knew about the later day, feet swelling issue, but when I happen to see a pair that I want, let's face it, home from the store they came. Unlike almost all of the girls that I've known and loved, even as a teenager, I have always really disliked shopping, so if I'm in a mall, I have a mission, and shoes are a treat that I reward myself just for being there.

@Alicia, not 'tying myself down' had it's benefits, but there is always a tradeoff of things that one would never be able to experience. The happiness comes from knowing that it was a choice and the knowledge that no one can 'have it all'

@MD, you are an 'enigma' to me. I LOVE IT! Visions of an early KD Lang now :-)) - El @Mainframe:  I too have been guilty of the impulse buying event. Paid for it later, and still do when I wear those pairs, but you know, my feet look "fabulous darling" for those couple of hours.

@everyone regarding hair:  Haven't seen my real color in over 30 years. Was a medium blonde, but it did not look real. So I went for red. Looks more real than my true color and I haven't a clue as to what the real color is anymore save it is tinged with some gray.

Style. Based on an Alien character from a Sy-Fy series whose title I can't recall right now. She was purple and dracula like. Shocking white hair cut asymetrically. Mine is longer on the right than the left ending at my chin. Back is short but long enough at the top to be able to get some lift to it.

Really like some of your ideas and may give them a try.
