The toes knows




What do your toes say about you?

And do we even want to know?

Toes that are connected? I never heard of such a thing. Isn't that a web? That picture reminded me of an old roommate who shaved her big toes.

Kansas said...

Yeah, I didn’t get the whole connected toes thing either. Sounds like they mean webbed to me. And I also used to have a friend who shaved her toes!

Wow, maybe it’s a more prevalent thing to do than we thought. Maybe we’re missing out, Murf, us and our big, hairy toes!

Murf said...

I wonder if the 'if you shave it, it will come back thicker' rule is true for toe hair.

sage said...

I'm shaking my head--the two of you getting together and comparing toes is more than I can handle.

BTW, my second toe is larger than my big toe which means all kinds of interesting things like I have a lot of ambition and I don't clean my desk, which are probably both true. On a second note, I've never seen a bunch of uglier toes than on that website. Whose ever feet those are, I hope they don't wear sandels.

Kansas said...

Hey Sage, MY second toe is longer than my big toe too, so what they said about you goes for me also. I think what they basically said was that we were A.D.D. and kinda sloppy. It was a nice way of saying we can’t keep our mind on one thing for very lon....oh look, a bunny!

Kansas said...

Sorry, I got sidetracked. But I agree about the ugly toes on that site. You’d think if you were going to put up a site about toes, you could at least find some toes that don’t make people ralph!

And Murf, I’m pretty sure the “if you shave it” rule goes for toes too. Scary thought…

I'm glad to know that those hideous blue toes aren't yours!

Kansas said...

Oh good grief no! I stopped wearing blue nail polish in the 8th grade!

Murf said...

Sage, you have a daughter. We're just preparing you for when she gets a bit older and has sleepovers that include such frank discussions. It's what girls do.

Moogirl - Ooooh...too risky. I'll keep my 3 blonde ones as opposed to having 12 blacks ones come back. :)

Kansas said...

Murf, not to mention how they would feel rubbing up againsst you. Ewwwwwww!

My toes say I'm too lazy to polish them. I have what my mother called "three goober toes". Very long. Look like an unshelled peanut with three peanuts inside.

Ok, what's wrong with blue toes?

Kansas said...

Ok, I don’t even know how to respond to you, Mytoes. Blue nail polish went out with blue eye shadow, so it’s kind of old fashioned.

So that, and oh yeah, YOU’RE A GUY! If a guy insists on painting his toes, he should go with a nice peach, or perhaps a subtle light pink. Because blue polish on a guy’s toes would just look strange…

So you have seen my blue toes! I have tried other colors and I must say they look great in any color. I don't like metallics though.I have some pics with pink, red, black and purple. There is a great story behind why I have decided to paint my toes. No, I'm not gay. Quite the opposite. If you have some time I'll tell you the reason.

Kansas said...

For this story, I’d make the time! I just can’t imagine why a man would paint his toes. It’s a pain in the arse for women to do it.

Kansas said...

Actually, you have pretty nice feet for a guy.

Thanks!! Well here goes. I have been married for 26 years to a great lady. In 2004 she developed breast cancer. She went through a lot of treatment like chemo and radiation. She is now doing fine but cancer is a scarey word. It doesn't mean a death sentence but it's always on her mind. Where will it attack next! I remained positive and together we fought this demon. I love to see her smile and laugh. She had beautiful long hair and she knew it was a matter of time before it all fell out. At first when it came out she cut it real short. Then I buzzed the rest so she would not face hair on the pillow. I did not buzz my hair to be in bald support but I wanted to make her smile . I painted my toes pink, the color for breast cancer survivors. I took a picture and put it as her background on her computer. When she saw that she laughed out loud. I continued to support her with all colors, mostly pink. This also reminded me of what she was going through having people look at her shaved head. I wore the toe color in public and got various reactions. Some laughed, looked away, maybe thought I was gay. Some asked why and I told them. They thought it was cool. I really got more compliments than dirty looks. I remember two ladies looking at my toes while I was in line at a store and they didn't have the guts to ask about them, but actually pointed at me. I was in a rush and didn't have time to share with them. I still paint my toes as a reminder and to tell the story. I think more men should support their wives this way if they can take it. It's more manly to be a leader than a follower. Anyway, that's my story. So I say...paint on and have some fun. Life is too short to judge others for being happy.

Kansas said...

What an awesome story! And shame on me for thinking that there could only be one reason why a man would paint his toes! I’m so glad you’re wife is better. Tell her she certainly is married to a special man. I cannot imagine many men would go to the lengths to make their wives feel better and laugh as you did. Kudos to you Mr. Toe Man!
