I was curious at what point it would become embarrassing, though in my mind they don&#8217;t look like <em>that</em> many shoes. I am a mid-twenties female afterall. That likes dressing up and looking sharp.<br/><br/>Cowboy boots, black boots, Fall boots- 1 pair each. Understandable. A few flats, 2 pair Converse all-stars, some sandals. Ok. <br/><br/>29 at first count. <em>Ok, not so bad. That&#8217;s&#8230;.typical right? 29 pairs?</em><br/><br/>Then I kept finding more around the apartment.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><em>30, 31&#8230;<br/></em><br/><br/><em>Ah shit. I&#8217;m the stereotype&#8230;</em><br/><br/><br/><br/><em>32.</em>  </p>http://risingconverging.tumblr.com/post/22756587624http://risingconverging.tumblr.com/post/22756587624Wed, 09 May 2012 21:10:00 -0500that's a lot of shoesa girl's gotta have her bootsflatssandalsChucksTOMSmore flats<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m3r2laKoZz1rth9uqo1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://risingconverging.tumblr.com/post/22730969932http://risingconverging.tumblr.com/post/22730969932Wed, 09 May 2012 15:19:12 -0500
