That’s right, anonymous blog reader, I was prescribed my favorite kinds of shoes! (I subscribe to the theory of gender performativity, but if ever there was a case for gender essentialism…) It is very difficult to find the support my feet need because my arches are soooooo high! I’d been trying to wear flats and tennis shoes to alleviate the pain, but the doctor explained that the best shoes for my feet are actually heels and wedges. Apparently, my foot problems are the fault of my feet’s high arches and my shoes’ inadequate arch support. My Staunchly Manhattan Podiatrist turned out not to be a kidney-harvester after all, and she gave me a surprising diagnosis. If you’ve seen the Sex and the City episode where Miranda meets the man who hasn’t left Manhattan in a decade and has no plans of venturing out, you know what I’m talking about.

They love their borough and they hate leaving it. However, the longer I live in New York City, the more accustomed I grow to meeting the Staunch Manhattanites. I think this is quite a feat, considering that she lives and works five minutes from Brooklyn. I also learned that the doctor is from Brooklyn, but since she left for college, she’s never looked back. I may have learned as much about her bichon frisée as I did about my foot condition. I liked her even more after she told me she’d ordered special doggie take-out for her dog and that it smelled ‘better than lunch!’ The doc’s first words were, ‘Pretend you didn’t just see me smoking out there’, and I liked her right away (not because of the smoking because of the gruff New York frankness). It’s not every day someone looks at me with awe or incredulity, so I say milk it for all you can.ĭone admiring me, she ushered me to the exam room. It was actually the closest podiatrist to me, but I tried to look as though I felt I deserved a medal. I filled out forms, in a darling waiting room with blue tufted chairs, and gave them to the receptionist who was shocked I’d made the trek all the way from Brooklyn. (Do you think she does it on purpose, to temper expectations?) I passed a womyn smoking a cigarette and stepped inside where I heard the familiar ‘DOC-tah’s Ah-fiss’. A pretty little wrought iron stand planted in green grass behind green bushes. Probably when they took out my kidney, I decided. Walking in the Lower East Side, I wondered how I’d be able to tell if the doctor’s office was a sham. NOW BACK TO REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING.*** I wouldn’t be surprised if it had the most cupcakes per capita in the world. Long-live New York Cupcakes!

Dreamy, wispy Magnolia cupcakes minimalist Sprinkles Hunky Crumbs, Neon cart cupcakes, artisanal Brooklyn beer cupcakes, teeny adorable Melissa‘s cupcakes (thumbcakes, I call them) and every cupcake in between…New York’s got cupcakes on lock. I’ve decided New York has an acceptable cupcake-to-kristy ratio. WE INTERRUPT THIS BLOG POST FOR AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE ABOUT NEW YORK CITY CUPCAKES.*** Just add halal food trucks, Boar’s Head brand deli products, a fruit stand, and a cupcake shop. This pretty much sums up New York’s food culture. On the way, I passed a grocery store with a sign suggesting it only carries It was hard to remember having a day without foot pain since last July, so I headed to see the ‘DOC-tah’ I hoped would be a podiatrist. On the day of my appointment, I felt apprehensive. I wondered if I was being scammed, but I’d found the ‘DOC-tah’s ah-fiss’ through my insurance company, so I crossed my fingers and made an appointment. ‘Doctor’s office,’ said a disgruntled voice with a thick New York accent. It all started when I called a podiatrist to schedule an appointment. My life got a whole lot better a couple of weeks ago.
