I hate my feet but....


do I hate them this much? Seriously, I think I have the ugliest feet around. If I weren't so serious, I could probably enter them in an "Ugliest Feet Contest" and win hands, uh, feet down. I have never had a pedicure because of my thoughts about my feet. I read today about a place that has a new pedicure that is supposed to be pretty effective. It is a FISH PEDICURE. See the pic? Those women actually have their feet in vats of warm water and they are letting 1,000 of doctor fish nibble the dead skin from their feet. Sounds delightful doesn't it? Who thinks this crazy stuff up?

I am WAY too ticklish for THAT to ever work. Plus if you really think it's something you like, I know a nice little beach in the Mississippi where you can get that done for free...

You confessed to having ugly feet well let me join that club b/c with all the dry skin on my foot I could sand, and saw for days and nothing gets them smooth. The cracks in the back of my heal you could drive dump truck through, and I have to tell these ladies living here in Mississippi you don't have spend any money to get this treatment just go to the local creek, the fish love to nibble on ya.

But I have say it does look disgusting.

Deanna, I just had my first pedicure at 40 when my hubby took me to the Alluvian. Like you, I have been a little self-conscious about my feet. Since he made the appointment as a gift, I accepted and it was wonderful! I am hooked!

However, the fish pedicure is a little much. Don't know if I could do that.

Oh. Freak. No.

I have this horrid fear of fish. I won't go snorkling for fear of the touching me. I don't do the lake, they may bite me/touch me (nevermind that they may or may not have teeth).

This concept sends shivers down my spine. Ew. Ew. Ew.
