To'short

I had winter-foot-itis and was ready to get rid of it, so today I got a pedicure. I love pedicures because: 1) I get a leg massage. 2) Freshly painted toenails are the bees knees.

So I get to the nail salon and a little Vietnamese woman takes me to a pedicure chair. I immediately turn it on full back massage and pick up the closest tabloid. As I am enjoying the little jacuzzi for my feet the Vietnamese woman says something. As usual I have no idea what she is saying so I ask her to repeat herself. After about three times I realize what she is saying. "Yo toes to'short." Really?? Jerkface. I wanted to tell her she was too short, but then I figured she probably wouldn't understand. So I gave her a half smile and pretended to be fascinated in a picture of Taylor Swift at some charity thing. There goes my career as a foot model and my self esteem all in one swift blow.

I have decided that in my next life, to avoid this same conversation I will have these feet instead of my baby marshmallow toes.

  2. Hahaha! That reminds me of when I went to the beach a couple of years ago and decided to get a pedi. We were camping so my feet were probably a little dirtier than normal plus tar kreeps up on the beach every once in awhile and happened to get on my feet. Well the Vietnamese dude pulled my feet out of the water and started scrubbing them. He then looks up at me with a disgusting facial expression, tounge twisted to one side and with a loud gurgle of a noise says KUH KUUUH...YUCK!! Repeated 3 or 4 times!! Then turns is head and face over his shoulder and keeps scrubbing like he was trying not to barf! I was like DUDE! It's only tar GET A GRIP!! It was actually quite funny, I just laughed and laughed and still laugh remembering it. =)
