Though slipping my shoe on is painful, as is wearing socks. And what is this fateful injury? Well, it’s a blister on the top of one of my toes. The middle left one. If feet could swear, mine would be giving me the finger. It hurts, man. I’m like constantly aware that it’s there. Whether I’m in socks, shoes, or foot-nude.
