Anyway. The point. I had one, I swear!
Uhmm... back when I first started taking ballet class I told my husband that if I ever went en pointe I would walk around the house like that all day. And he said okay, as long as you dress like Mom from the cartoon Dexter's Laboratory. Because she perpetually walks en pointe, you see. Another character, the annoying sister Dee Dee, always dresses in a pink tutu and ballet slippers, and is known for being a ditz and dancing around at all times. It's possible that back in college my boyfriend used to call me Dee Dee.
Anyway, I was just trying to find a little video of Mom walking around on tiptoes to post here. I was NOT looking for creepy-ass cartoon porn.
At least not today *wink*
Yeah, don't do a search for my little pony either. Internet!!!! (Shakes fist at screen) even with safe search on you still get the sick stuff :( I am apparently up for pointe shoes in a few months, and you can bet I will be walking around everywhere in them :)
ReplyDeleteYeah... for some reason a few weeks ago I was looking for a picture of Babs Bunny from Tiny Toon Adventures. I never would have guessed how many... uhmmm... "admirers" she seems to have these days...
DeleteHAHAHAA, you all say that now! I was SO scared in my pointe shoes. I had to try them and make sure I was happy with them when I was home but I was so scared at first. I was lucky my first pair actually didn't make me feel the floor so much, my metatarsals supported my foot so I really didn't FEEL the floor. Now a days I feel the floor almost too much when I sink in certain shoes, otherwise you will become familiar with the "ahhhhh" feeling after removing your shoes from pointe work.
ReplyDeleteAhh... Dexter's Laboratry, good memories. The other day I had a search term of "straddle splits in high heels". I was like Awww... c'mon man- really?! It could've been worse.
Oh my GOD the search terms that people have used to get to my blog astound me! I didn't even know there were people who WANTED rheumatic old ladies in knee braces to do... those... things... ahem!
DeleteOh geez!!!! Yeah the Internet is a weird place for sure in its dark corners...
ReplyDeleteOh I walk around on the tips of my Demi pointe shoes I have now, and I'm fine... They don't have a "real" box, and no shank... But I'm fine :)
