Busy, busy --
Aug. 28th, 2006 01:11 amBoy, I'm a terrible correspondent this month. I have been to a writing convention in Austin (ArmadilloCon) and a massage therapy convention in San Antonio. Both of them were interesting and informative. My energy levels were much better than the previous conventions -- I used the Coriolus, and this stuff ROCKS! I finally got to meet ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tia_tarina, who told me I could probably use a fountain pen to write, and corrupted me by loaning me several.
Thus allowing me to corrupt W. We're such viruses.
Now, no more conventions for a while -- not until World Fantasy in early November. On the other hand, I'm going to San Francisco on family business come September.
Anyone have suggestions of what to do? I see the specialist on Friday, but will be there by noon Thursday, and leave Sunday AM, thereby getting the slightly cheaper rate for a Saturday stay-over. We won't have a car ($46 a night PARKING IF you are staying at the hotel, more if not) but we're in West Union Square, so we aren't far from the cable cars.
One big thing is on my list. I hear there are actually shoe stores close to my hotel (the area is office buildings, hotel, shoe stores, and one bookstore. We can deal -- ) I cannot find a pair of dress shoes that fit my obscenely narrow heel, wide ball of foot, and Morton's syndrome. And I've broken both little toes just to complicate things. I haven't had a lot of problems with my toes yet, but they're laying in wait for me.
So -- black boots, and/or black strappy things. I will settle for either, but both would be nice. I am taking a %##@! amount of cash, prob Traveler's checks (no, I don't like debit cards, why do you ask?) and am ready for the possibility of paying someone to make a last of my feet.
And I thought learning to stand correctly and getting those spasmed muscles to relax would make it easier to find shoes! Hah!
