good ole hot summertime pavement---dry cement sidewalks heated by the sun; scalding parking lots, even cooler summer sidewalks in the evening---still hot but tol'able IN THE GOOD OLE SUMMERTIME
yep, summertime has it's benefits! Tanned, clean(ish) feet and no 'arnt your feet cold?' stupid-ass comments shayla x
yeah, because you just want to walk around in pain all day , some people really got the runts share of brain cells.
This time of year, the air temperature can drop rapidly in the evening, while the ground remains warm for a while. The feel of the warm ground (especially smooth blacktop or concrete) in the chill evening air is great.
Just did a 3-mile barefoot trek in 80-degree weather (LOW humidity). Going barefoot is summer is FREAKIN' GREAT!!!
i don't mind comments, its the looks that i like to mess with people when i see them. when someone says something it can become a learning moment. few weeks ago an older woman looked at me and said in a slight sarcastic tone, "nice shoes" and half smiling. i'm not normally fast on my toes but i looked her straight in the eye, smiling, and said "thanks. my parents gave them to me". was fun watching her 60 year old brain try to process that.
The temperature just before the pavement gets scolding is perfect. It would be nice if somehow the pavement could stay that hot and the air could stay around spring/fall temperatures...
If you go barefoot and your mama catches you, you WILL get a scolding! Likely as not, it will be scalding! But fuck it, go barefoot anyway!
