I Knew to Lie




I remember my first pair of hot shoes. When I was 8, I bought a pair of 3-inch heels from a garage sale for $2. They were strappy black and gold stiletto sandals. My mom saw them, freaked, pictured my future life of prostitution, and asked me how much they were. Instinctively I knew to lie and say that they only cost $0.50. She warned that I would break my leg. (Totally unfounded!) I did cartwheels in them to spite her. And I was fine.
