I went to Cedar City on Saturday and saw two plays, "School for Wives" and "The Taming of the Shrew" (if you'd like to locate me, just follow my giant carbon footprints to and from the Utah Shakespearean Festival). "Taming of the Shrew" was such a FUN performance. It's really a shame that we saw it first, because "School for Wives" paled in comparison. The performance of "School for Wives" was not terribly well attended, though, so the ushers let us move into very nice seats on the main floor. Being offered better seats was a treat, especially since the ushers we encountered at the earlier show gave one of my friends stern warnings about not touching the gold leaf on the balcony (she had no intention of touching the gold leaf) and scolded another friend for coming in the wrong door, even though we were sitting exactly in the middle of a row and the only extra person my friend had to climb over to reach her seat was me. The ushers owed us a little sweetness and kindness and goodwill after all that chiding.
I wore these shoes on Saturday, because they are cute and they make me happy. I had never worn these shoes all day before. I will never wear these shoes all day again.
Today I wore these shoes to church, because they're cute and they make my feet look grown up. When I bought them, my mom commented that they're pointy enough to use to kick out a bug's eye. They are, indeed, pointy. And after several hours they feel a lot like the shoes I wore yesterday.
Which is why I put on these shoes as soon as I got home from church today. My feet need a little sweetness and kindness and goodwill, too.

Nice change on the shoes. I personally came home from church today and threw my shoes in the garbage can because they are falling apart and I knew if I did not throw them away, I would wear them again. And now--I have no summer church shoes left.
I had to do that with a pair of my work shoes recently. I knew I'd keep wearing them unless they were out of the house.
