Let's go back to actually living.

By that I mean wearing my Vibram Five Fingers. Today I switched back, as stated in the earlier post, and my feet are killing me. Let me give you some insight as to why. My orthopedist says I have "the flattest, or second flattest feet" he has ever seen. Since Five Fingers feel as if you are walking barefoot, giving no arc support, the arc in my feet are killing me. This happens every year, I have to go through a break in period where my feet adjust to the barefoot feeling. Orthopedic arc supports only comfort your foot, they don't actually improve the arc at all, they just make it hurt less. While Vibram Five Fingers actually strengthen the muscles in my feet and legs, improving my arc. Neat huh?

As for daily life that doesn't deal with footwear, I didn't really do much today. I am sorry to hear about my friend Rodger losing a lot of his music and all of his photos from the last two years due to a virus/hard drive failure. Not exactly sure how I would classify it. I lost a lot of my music about six months ago due to hard drive failure. It sucks, but music can be downloaded again, timeless photos cannot be refurbished.

As of right now, I am tired from a long day of doing nothing, but I am going to skype with my love before I stumble along into dreamland.
