*sigh* i have knee problems and can't wear any heels at all.  and five 
different shoe stores had no low-heel black shoes that fit me.  i gave up on 
inexpensive shoes long ago, they never fit.   i just want something that 
doesn't pinch my toes or fall off when i walk.  even with an open wallet, i 
cna't find anything :(

ziviya, getting odd looks for wearing sneakers to teach
