Damn these feet!

God has given me flat feet, it is not a curse. It has it's uses. However it makes the line of work, waiting tables (food service/hospitality), that I am in very trying on my feet. Especially as I get older I start to notice that I don't bounce back from the soreness. I need to "pamper" if you will, my feet when I get home. An ice bath, and now I'm going to try a heat pack. if I don't have the right pair of shoes.

And damn it finding a good pair of shoes and/or inserts that can take the rigors of my line of work, is one of the toughest challenges. I've already blown around $150. I have to mention that I walk on concrete all day or the equivalent of it. Which is the worst part of the whole deal! Argh, damn these feet!

So I need cushioning with arch support. But right now I'll take something that will not aggravate my abnormally swollen right foot. It's disgusting! I am going to try and solve this the best that I can by going to my doctor and seeing what she may say. I think it's infected. My blister that is, and it's spreading which is starting to worry me a little. I may be overreacting. It's the butt that I am really starting to get a little worried about it.

On a much lighter note, I met someone that was really interesting tonight! This person spoke Hungarian! I couldn't believe my ears, really! I didn't even hear her when she did it. It was one of the absolute coolest things that's happened to me in a long time! I should really stop using the exclamation point before it loses it's meaning. However it's hard to contain my excitement, I haven't spoken Hungarian with a complete stranger since I was a wee lad! She's someone I work with, she just started like the last two weeks. It was a truly awesome experience. I was actually at a loss for words. No, really I was, I couldn't think of anything to say in Hungarian, the language is slowly draining out of me. Plus we both sounded like American kids speaking for the first time. It really was cool. If she is interested in practicing it, that would be so awesome. I'm keeping my reservations though.
