The Flip Flop Girl

Hey Everybody,
I just feel so so good right now and I wanted to share. The weather is totally awesome and you know I'm loving it, totally into my flip flops and with a beautiful fresh coat of polish. Today it's been pink flips and ruby polish. Lucky for me, I was out and about while the sun was bright and shiny. It started to rain on us here in Seattle by the middle of the day. I was back home catching up on some work that's been piling up. Anyway, I haven't done it quite like this in awhile but I decided to indulge and I stuck my foot in my mouth! First the big toe, started suckin on it. Had some music on and, well, I guess I did have some wine too. But I made a promise to myself to indulge, be a little wild, and then get back to work! I did it. I met my deadline and all is well. So, yeah, I had my Merlot, sucked my big toe like a little baby and then right along and licked and sucked the rest of my toes, one foot and then the next, and by the end I was holding my right foot in my hands and had all five toes in my mouth! I'm crazy, I know. And somehow, it feels so right to let all of you know...makes it even better, ya know? Can you see that? Yeah, it's just a cool thing to me. A great way to release stress. In fact, I have to say, I do it more often than I might realize. I know, here and there, just to give me a lift, I might suck my big toe as I'm doing yoga. Now, that's something I'd like to hear from all of you out there--doesn't it soothe you-care to admit? Well, I'm admitting it again as I am prone to do. And I'm admitting I did a lot of it today. Anyways, that's all I have to say for now. Take care and Peace to ALL of you!

Oh, Eliot, What Have You Wrought?

This from Time.com:

On a day of heavy ironies for one of America's most prominent and promising politicians, there was this: the prostitution ring that New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer allegedly patronized was called the Emperors Club VIP. It was the governor's own imperial mien, after all, that will make this fall from grace particularly bruising.

And here's a good link to the whole sordid
tale of falling from grace.

Well, what can I say. This is the sort of news story that knocks my flip flops off!!

This has everything people! And, after thinking it over, I think Eliot needs to chill out and plan his next move. Hopefully that won't include jail time for this character but it might. All things considered, I think one thing Spitzer needs to do is decide now if he can go ahead and crossover to the other side where all the fun he so desires appears to be. This guy's life story has already crossed over to the entertainment news whether he's ready or not. But, if he is honest with himself, maybe he needs to find himself on some talk show or some other razzle dazzle pursuit. This has worked for former Cincinnati mayor Jerry Springer although he got his name into the tabloids after he'd left politics and got into show business, right? Well, more than likely, Spitzer is not as daring and will gradually fade away and do all he can to rebuild his reputation in the same vein as another sex scandal fool, Gary Hart, which will mean writing bogus academic books in the coming years. Hey, his wife seems to support him. She encouraged him to fight on as governor! So, maybe that's the state of shock talking or maybe Mrs. Spitzer is simply putting things into perspective. The man will want to do something. I just don't think it's necessary for him to continue a charade of being one thing when he'd love to be another. He would be doing everyone a favor by getting a divorce.

I mean, if Eliot really would rather be in the Playboy mansion than the governor's mansion, he really should go ahead and make it happen and he could at the snap of a finger. The tragedy for this guy is that he's too afraid to do it.

In Eliot's mind, he could hold the masses up to one standard as the crime busting "Mr. Clean" while he could indulge in the very thing that he, "Mr. Clean," was suppose to be fighting against. Was he disillusioned in his work? Are the trappings of power all a sham to him? Who is the really Eliot? Well, it would be pretty hard for him to distance himself from all the tradition bound circles he travels in although the man has managed to live a double life. As do any number of other powerful men. It's interesting that he has not been caught in a true affair but instead found to be "Client 9." Wow, from "Mr. Clean" to "Client 9." Which is closer to the real Eliot? Which is closer to the real America with its collectively uptight views on sex?

What is totally wrong, beyond the fact he's found paying for it and all, is that he appears to have wanted to push things further and have sweet little Ashley engage in some unsafe sex acts. How far did this guy want to sink? So, here he is putting his loyal wife at risk! That to me, is the last and final straw. Maybe there's more to the story here but I don't think so. Sure, Ashley must have been the highest end call girl you can get but that doesn't guarantee she couldn't possibly have an STD. Or how about the risk of getting this aspiring singer pregnant?

Well, it's all over now and Ashley seems more than ready to collect her fifteen minutes of fame and then some. Who knows, maybe once the smoke has cleared, that's what Eliot should do and provide us with whatever type of entertainment sideshow he'd like to partake in. It certainly worked out for Dick Morris. Remember that infamous toe-sucker? I've done some research and this man really fell from grace but the public-at-large seemed to take only so much notice or didn't want to know too many details about his paying to suck the toes of a high end call girl. Was it Ashley? No, she would have still been in grade school. For those of you who don't know, Dick Morris was Bill Clinton's top adviser and coined the term, "triangulate," in other words, finding ways to work both sides of the political spectrum to the middle or something like that. Anyhow, Dick Morris, the supposed political wizard, got caught in his own sex scandal drama but today enjoys a regular presence on the talk show circuit. I've seen him. No one ever mentions toe-sucking to him. So, why not Eliot? Give him some time. He might still come around. Not most likely to happen but this guy is full of surprises.

An Awesome 2008 Ahead, Toes in the Air, Suck Away, Have Fun, Be Free!

I really don't have anything to say but just wanted to say hello. Actually, I always have something to say. I wish some of you would have replied to my last post--just curious. I really thought that was a cool article and hit on the themes I keep shouting about. If we were more free, we'd be less tense, and either we wouldn't be going to spas so much or the whole spa thing could somehow be a more healthy experience for everyone involved. Or maybe that's asking too much, especially from the spa workers. I especially liked the part in the article about how young women these days, at least in New York, are very comfortable with lying on a table naked for just a bikini wax. It's not a Brazilian so what are they thinking? And, if it is a Brazilian they came for, fine, the whole thing doesn't matter anyway. The most intimate has become just another piece of armor in the game of sex. The armor for amore.

Anyway, there's always something to say. The political process is in full swing and there's always plenty of flip floppin goin on there, especially by Mitt Romney. Oh, that's too easy. But that guy is just weird in the sense I really don't think he believes in anything but himself. If I had to bet on Brit or Mitt, I'd take Brit anytime. But, since I have your fleeting attention, I should roll out something juicy for the horny element among us, huh? Hey, you guys can settle this one for me, which is better: clean pretty feet or dirty pretty feet? Matter of taste, huh? Not too much of that barefootin on sidewalks, no. But what about clean pretty feet that look dirty? Like dipped in chocolate, all messed up like that? Yeah, that I like. That I've tried a few times. It's messy but it's fun. He likes it anyway. I might talk more about him in this coming year. We've been up to some fun and it gets me excited thinking about it. Oh, I've meant to do a lot things with this blog. Well, I'll just see how I feel let things happen naturally. Just sayin hello.

Here's another perspective related to my main theme the sensual/sexual nature of flip flops and the like in the current issue of New York magazine.

I think the very last paragraph speaks to what I'm working with. We love the flip flop way beyond what would seem reasonable, for instance, because maybe a lot of us find we're getting something from that flip flop experience that is hard to come by otherwise. We also want things fast and now and the flip flop is definitely instant gratification, isn't it? Cellphone + iPod + flip flops = happiness.

New York magazine, Dec 3, 2007 issue:

And yet there is also Hochschild’s question: Is something missing in our lives that we’re trying to replace with spa services? Kim and I talk again about why her clients want these treatments—why so many more, right now. “These days, people don’t have family, that’s the problem,” says Kim. “Because at least before, even though they don’t get married, they have their intimate partner, or they live with brothers or sisters, they always have company. These days, they travel a lot. Every family member is living so far away. And when they go home, they do their computer, they watch TV, then they go to sleep; that’s it. You don’t have your sister to say, I do your nails, I braid your hair—even with your family, you’re not really keeping company; people are so individualized.” She smiles and gazes out onto 72nd Street. “How many people do they have to do the braiding of their hair?”

Barefooters.org is a wonderful organization focusing on walking barefoot. Check them out here.

I think walking barefoot on a bunch of rocks would be quite a challenge for me. I'm not sure I'll be doing that anytime soon. But the barefooters group wants you to know it can present a spiritual high. I can see that. I love all sorts of sensations on my feet. What I don't really like are calluses!

Leave it to TMZ to provide some very juicy toe sucking stories like this one.

For anyone who has seen "From Dust to Dawn" this isn't a shock. You have to hand it to Quentin for being so free with his foot fetish. The photo says it all to me: we have so much more to discuss! I don't know if any of you guys who have posted have really yet articulated what it's like for you to love a woman's feet. I'd love to read your specific thoughts. As for you girls out there, I realize it's more of a touchy subject but I'd love to have you chime in too.

Well, I suppose this inspires a call for a top ten list of foot fetish celebs. Quentin would have to be at the top of this one.

Actually, I just learned about this TMZ story from there very own show on TV! Did you see it? They started to come up with their own list: Tommy Lee, Jack Black, and some new model, I didn't catch the name. Oh, well. As I think we realize now, all of this just goes to show there's so much more to this very fascinating subject.

I hate to say this but does Quentin gross anyone out? Is his foot love just a bit too much?

HIGH HEELS GOT YOU DOWN?

Here is something sent in by a friend with a sense of humor and well as a sense of what is right and wrong. This is an ad on Craigslist in Seattle. The title and, as you will see, the content makes me think this is more appropriate as some sort of personals ad and not a professional ad seeking a potential employee.

The company, Seattle Stair, appears to do great woodwork and, from the ad, appears to have quite a foot fetish. Check it out.

Isn't it illegal to discriminate based on sex, etc? The ad doesn't explain how this administrative job has anything to do with being a woman, much less a woman who wears high heels. This is just hilarious. But it also makes me mad. And it baffles me too. What a sexist jerk! He probably lies around watching Fox News waiting for a peek at his new admin girl wandering around in flip flops. I could see this guy saying he's all innocent and didn't mean to offend anyone but that's pretty lame.

This is the original High Heels ad.
And what follows is the same ad:

High Heels Got You Down??
