The Friday Five gets shoe-obsessed.

1. What size shoe do you wear?
Circa 7-7.5 B. B because it denotes a narrow foot, like my wallaby-trotters. Family curse.

2. How many pairs of shoes do you own?
Lemme just go count... um, five in fairly regular wearing, plus three others for odd occasions.

3. What type of shoe do you prefer (boots, sneakers, pumps, etc.)?
Boots! Um, well, sort of. I really like boots. A lot. I mean, yeah, I have three pairs. But frankly, I prefer slip-on-and-go sandals. I'm that apathetic.

4. Describe your favorite pair of shoes. Why are they your favorite?
Well, that'd be Loki and Bartleby, my newest acquisitions. (And this comes as no surprise to anyone who knows me.) They're business boots: flat, solid, good quality. Come about a third of the way up my calves, lace-up, plus there's two straps and buckles on each one. They're black, with red-orange flaming at toe and heel. They be way cool.

5. What's the most you've spent on one pair of shoes?
Aforementioned Loki and Bartleby. They cost me circa $270. And were worth every last cent.

And because I think it's an important question:
5 and a half. What's the least you've spent on one pair of shoes?
Well, technically, I didn't spend anything at all on them, because they were a present from Jen's mother, but had I been buying myself, they would have only cost $4 anyway. And yes, I'm talking about the insanely high white strappy heels. (I like to call them Bambi and Thumper.)
