random podiatry

Apparently I have knock knees and flat feet, and desperately need orthotics. (I also need new shoes.)


I don't know about you, but "knock knees" always puts me in mind of fictional orphans wearing hand-me-down gingham dresses and gazing wistfully out the window at all the society girls going to tennis parties...
(Yes, I read a lot of very old novels.)

"Flat feet" doesn't put me in mind of anything, really. But knock knees are appropriately fictional.


Knock knees and whooping cough, all within a month! My campaign to become a romantic fictional character is going well.

Woo! I'm coming up with quite a list of those, too - starting with the glasses...

Alas, I don't think they're so picky anymore...
