We Have Met the Shoe Salesman
and the Shoe Salesman is Us


In the mail room I ran into a familiar looking man. Having never met a stranger, I turned and said, "Hey, do you sell shoes at Macy's?"

"Yes, I do," he replied with the slightest blush.

"You've sold me two pair of shoes!" I exclaimed and shook his hand; too vigorously I suppose.

These are the pair I finally decided on. I was there at least three times trying some on.

I take my shoes seriously.

And now I'm on a first name basis with the shoe guy at Macy's. Who works in my office. And I remembered him. Huh.

(There isn't a punchline.)

Did you know feet are a serious sexual distraction for most men? Just fyi. ;)

Feet? Is that before or after they smell them when the shoes come off after not wearing socks?

I could see how they'd be a distraction at that point, but not a good one.

oh no! It's BEFORE and AFTER smelly socks. All they have to do is look. It's quite disturbing actually. To me anyway. Weird.

TF: Have you considered the possibility that this is not gender-wide? Maybe you have exceptionally distracting feet.

Never considered it. I think my stubs are pretty much extraordinarily normal.
Do a post about it. No one answers on mine, meaning you have more hits. Asking all men..."Are feet a visually appeasing extremity on women?"
Why would a man sell women's shoes?

Hmm. I think there should be more research into this. Start a meme, GF.

I may post photos of my shoes. Of course, I can only dream of shopping in Macy's.

Payless? I'm there.
