What is it with so many WWs and foot rubs? Is it only us that notices this?
Personally, I HATE for anyone to touch my feet - I am TICKLISH - I suffer through pedicures for vanity's sake only...
Not to mention, I think feet are YUCKY!

Rubbing someone's feet is supposed to connect to nerves throughout the body. Maybe they're hoping they'll find the cheating nerve and pinch it off.
Anyway... I love my feet, they are special. They do a lot for me, I don't think I could get by without them. My feet carry me wherever I want to go (although they are starting to complain a little). Me and my feet are joined forever and ever. Amen.

You and my wife both! If we were stuck on a desert island and the only way to get the raft built was for her to accept a foot rub - well we better start liking coconuts.. I know doesn't make any sense but you get the idea.
My WxW used to go out of her way to rub MY feet. I mean, she would have me soak them, she'd trim, pumice, grind, massage, oil and smooth them. She would sometimes spend two HOURS working on my feet (and I have pretty gnarly feet, if you ask me).
This was her idea. I never had that kind of treatment before, and I certainly haven't been transformed into some kind of foot "fetishist" since...

Wow, so we should all just file that under "too much information"?

I don't know...the "grind" part sounds interesting.

Nah. He's had that signature for at least two years. He can't STILL be 42.
I do believe that his wife is still 39, though.
This thread's about to get interesting again.

And since Mr. W used *my* name to post his silly "pome", as he calls them, I am outing him: HE USED A POETRY GENERATOR, PEOPLE!
