To other people, I am the human equivalent of sensible shoes.  Comfortable, supportive, almost invisible.  I've never been anything else, really.  Maybe sensible shoes getting really worn around the edges and falling apart, now.  I've come to terms with this fact, for the most part.

But for just once in my life....

I really, really wish I could be someone's black velvet stilettos with diamonds in the heels.
