Little Miss Momma: Heel Skin and an Eye Ball {true story}

Heel Skin and an Eye Ball {true story}

Today I received a looooong overdo pedicure.

As in 5 months overdo.

It had pretty much gotten to the point that it was either get a pedicure,
or else move up a shoe size to make room for my new claws

{because I don't usually take the time to clip my own nails--sadI know}.


And everything was glorious as usual about the whole pedicure foot bath experience...

That is until the guy giving me my pedi started to use that giant chain saw looking machine to scrape the 3 pounds of dead skin off my heels...

and a large chunk of heel skin flew from my foot directly into his eye.

and he nearly vomited with disgust as he ran to the sink to rinse out his eye ball.

and I was mortified,

especially since I spent the rest of the pedicure staring at his blood shot and swollen eye ball.

But at least I left 3 pounds lighter.

true story.

Okay I sooo don't even know you but you seriously crack me up every.single.day! Thanks for keeping it real! The diaper is hilarious because my 2 year olds looks like that more than I want to admit! If she hasn't pooped, I forget to change her! When Huggies size 3 says 16-22 pounds...they aint kidding!! It can really hold that much liquid!! =)

Oh my gosh! LOL! That's too funny, embarassing but funny. It's one of those stories you'll tell forever. Your toes look pretty and the pampering was probably wonderful! I wish we had a spa or nail place where I live! Hope you have a good Turkey day!!

Oh geez! I cracked up the second I read "he nearly vomited with disgust". One time, I was clipping my kiddos nails and one of them flew into my eye, I basically threw my poor kid down and started freaking out lol.

That pedicure story is truly awesome! Hope you threw in an extra buck tip... even though it was most certainly not your fault at all.

PS -- I'll trade you kids. I think my daughter might be able to load up a diaper a tad more. but my only a smidge. maybe.

Ha ha ha ha, you are so funny! I have to admit something....I have never had a pedicure, ever. I am WAY too self conscious about my feet. I too have awful, dry, yucky skin on my heels and I can't imagine having some person handle them.
Typing this out makes me feel foolish, but in just thought in would share ;)
Happy thanksgiving!

You have NO idea who I am, but you're a friend in my head from the wonderfully truthful and often funny things you blog about. I almost NEVER leave comments, but that diaper shot made me feel like maybe I'm not the worst mama... I've got two little boys and their diapers often look like that and my mom caught me slackin' one day and made me feel embarrassed for it... I really and very truly thought I was the only one... thanks for reminding me that behind closed doors we are all the same!

Oh. My. Goodness!!!!! And I thought it was embarrassing when I stopped in to have a pedicure and realized once I she started that I hadn't shaved my legs in about 4 days!!! I am of Italian descent . . . you do the math!

Am I the only person in the world who doesn't get freaked out by feet missles flying at my face? I'm sure if it was a growth like fungus I would freak but corns or heel skin....bring it.

And thankyouthankyouthankyou for showing me solid proof of the diaper because I honestly thought I was the only parent who did that.

Former life, before Evelyn's closest and blog, and kids, I was a mail tech. Definitely had a toe nail hit my eye once. Terrible. Gross. Relived it reading this. Vomited a little in my mouth.
