now i know i said i don't wanna grow up.....

and for some reason, payless has decided that female shoe sizes 4ish to 6ish are "growing girls". (while that sort of bugs me, nevermind the whole genderfication shite.)

yes, while it is humorous to be strutting around in "growing girls" shoes, it's, in a way, a bit demoralizing......
ok, actually, the only twinge of embarrassment was at point of purchase. the rest of the time, i'm bemused.

does this mean i can still grow?

hey. for the first time in a very long time i am a 10 1/2 instead of a size 11. for most of my life (short as it may be) i've had the toughest time finding nice shoes to fit because not too many folks make size 11. although payless does. but i never thought to consider that not only big feet are discriminated against. i've heard of women who wear a size 5 having trouble finding shoes. what's up with that?! it's like if you're not between a 6-9 you walk around barefoot?

yeah, generally, a 5 1/2 to 6, wide.
payless tends to be generous with their wides. so i like them for that. that, and the wonderful trashiness of many of their styles.
i suppose i shouldn't complain then. "growing girls" is better than no shoes. though, personally, i hate shoes and would prefer to go barefoot if i could.

this sizism is horrible.
