Magic Is Happening.

Okay, I have a really good reason for not posting in 8 days.
...
Finals.
and Christmas Parties.
I go to work by day, then DJ at Christmas Parties by Night. It's exhausting. I'm actually writing right now because I can't concentrate on anything. (I'm waiting for the coffee to brew - yawn)

So, the magic thing

when you wear high heels, your feet hurt?
yeah, me too. I love the way I look, hate the way I feel. Usually after an hour (I'm a wimp) I have to kick them off because I like being able to walk without a weird look on my face. Welllll, I was listening to Kellie (on the Kidd Kraddick Morning Show) and she told me something I was very skeptical about.
If you tape your third and fourth toes together, your feet will hurt less.
(basically your foot doing the "west side" sign that we all did in 6th grade)

so... I tried it.
I had some medical tape lying around the house
and I taped my toes together.

and...
 HOLY TARDIS OF GALLIFREY IT WORKS.
I have these 4 inch platform pumps I am absolutely in love with.
I bought them for like, 7 bucks in a sale at Charlotte Russe.
they're exactly like this, except black.
so, I can't wear these babies for long. at all.
(sorry for the teeny tiny shoe. if you wanna see it, click here.)
...
I wore them for like, 10 hours.
Magic I tell you!
but not really.
According to WhoWhatWear there is a pretty simple explanation behind why this works.
 There’s a nerve that splits between those two toes, and when you put pressure on that nerve (a.k.a. when you wear heels) it causes pain. The tape removes strain on the nerve, allowing you to wear heels without the pain!

So, unless I'm wearing peeptoes (which I never do, I am not a fan) I will definitely have my toes taped!
That's all for today folks, coffees done!
(PS I passed all my finals and classes. yay me.)
