So I decided today (well I decided a long time ago, but I am announcing it today), that I am a HUGE fan of high-heels … on women (thought I should clarify that for some of you folks who think you are funny). And no, I do not mean those Sketcher style make you look 14″ taller go-go gadget shoes; I mean heels. Real heels. Ya know, the kind where the heel gets (or is) smaller at the portion that touches the ground as compared to the part that is connected to the shoe. In addition, they usually make that nice click-clack click-clack sound as a women is walking. Ahhh. Those are the ones, and I like ‘em, a lot. And herein lies my problem; WWU is not high-heel friendly.
If you got rid of the rain, placed WWU on a completely flat campus, and brought in some sun-light, WWU is still not high-heel friendly? Why? Those damn bricks! Every corner you turn on campus is another endless row of little red bricks that are haphazardly laid over dirt. Sure some are pretty solid and do not move about much, but others, umm, yeah. So what you end up with is a dull red ground that moves about while you’re walking. With that in mind, I have a hard time walking on those things in some rough and rugged Lugz, so I can only imagine what you ladies must be going through.
So, while I know most of you are just one step away from breaking your ankles while trying to march from class to class in something akin to a stiletto, I do appreciate it. Not that you are doing it for me (obviously), but it is a nice change from the WWU sweatshirt, blue-jeans, and open-toed sandals imagery I am subjected to on a daily basis. So thank you, as you are making WWU a bit easier to live-with.
Oh, and yes, these are the random ass things I think about while walking across campus. What can I say, I need help.
