OMG Shoes!

Ok so there's a little dichotomy going on here... I'm not a shoe girl.  I have a pair of beat up tennis shoes that I wear pretty much every day.  I have a pair of brown shoes... and a few pairs of black heels left over from high school dances, never come out of their boxes.  I just can't get into shoes.  Yea I like pretty shoes... or sandals... but I can't bring myself to care enough to actually go out and look and buy them and find the pair that I like the look, are in the right size and fit well enough that I don't wanna tear them off after 20 minutes.  Shoes are just TOO much of a hastle.

Enter my dolls.  It must have something to do with the fact that they never complain if the shoes are too tight or if they have a funny spot in the sole.  Never sweat up the insides and can wear the shoes indefinitely.  I LOVE shoes for my dolls.  I love them hard.  Heels.  I just got three pairs of heels in the mail (thanks mom! ^_^) and good lord I don't think I could be happier trying on these little shoes on my doll.  I nearly choke at human shoe prices.  I buy them at $20 or less.  Doll shoes... 20 bucks barely bothers me... I get spendy if I see shoes under 20... and if the measurements say they'll fit... hide my friggin wallet. 

Over the last couple of weeks I've gotten cranky because it turned out the shoes I wanted were out of stock... two separate times... That's right.. cranky for days...

What is it about these little shoes?? Is it honestly because -I- don't have to wear them?  If you have a theory I'm GLAD to hear it.
