Ok, I heard the song Blister in the Sun at school and I had to get up and dance and I guess I was a little too much in a trance because after the song went off and I was back to me everyone elses eyes were on me too. I'm not one to oppose attention but I was wondering what have you all done to get crazy looks lately?
Woke up at 5 am telling everyone we've been asleep to long and to get up. I can't remember anything recenter than that. Wait, yes I can! Eating cherries yesterday and I saved all the pits in my mouth then when i had as many as I could handle in my mouth, I spat them at my friend, one after the other. That got a few looks. Luckily my friend thought it was funny
Walking barefoot everywhere always gets me stares and the occasional "Where your shoes be?" comment from the folks here in the "Ghetto".
Falling asleep while watching The Clerks. I guess it's supposed to be a really good film or something coz everyone was horrified that I could fall asleep during it. But what can I say... I was tired.
Being barefoot is a big one - for some reason, a lot of suburban Floridians are apparently very concerned with my feet and what might happened to them. They can't help but make a comment. I also get comments when I slip my flops off while playing with my Pink Floyd tribute band. I've got four pedals to deal with and quite frankly, the less I look down the better. There's usually always someone who's gotta say something.
i had that song stuck in my head a couple days ago, in the morning. decided i wanted to hear it. so i turned on the radio, and there it was. then i went to a friends m_space page to wish her a happy birthday, and she had it there, too. now someone else is talking about it. how nifty.
and no one ever in my entire life, even when i was living in florida, EVER gave a flip flying fuck about me having bare feet. i think perhaps you're just fixated. for me, my horrible fashion sense got me loads of stares. unusual behavior was just par for the course with me, so i stopped noticing.
Perhaps... I guess I just figure this is Florida - it's warm year round - people shouldn't give a crap. I got less flak for it when I lived in the northeast! In any case, it's mind over matter: If you don't mind, then it doesn't matter.
yupp!! that's the attitude to take. barefoot was just how we lived in florida when i was growing up. there wasn't anyone who worse shoes if they didn't have to, like for a job or whatever. and they kept flip flops for areas with broken glass.
