I can’t feel my toes. They told me these boots would require some adjustment, that there would be a “breaking in period” (though now that I think of it they never said what it was that would be broken in, the boots or my toes), but it’s been a long time - it feels like a long time, anyway - and the only thing that’s changed is that where my toes used to be in excruciating pain, now I can’t feel them at all. So maybe that’s it; maybe these boots have been molding me and I am finally, completely, broken in.
