Fun drunk purchase
One night I was drunk and having a conversation with my husband about toys we always wanted but never got. Obviously moon shoes were at the top of my list. I decided that I’m an adult and I can buy them if I want. So into my cart they went.
There was some trouble during shipping and I didn’t get them for about two weeks.
When they came, I instantly became terrified of breaking an ankle and I can’t do my job on crutches, so I hid them in the garage and told the kids not to touch them. I forgot about them.
Well last week I was looking for something and stumbled upon them. My family was still sleeping and what ever I was looking for was not nearly as important as facing my fear and getting on these bouncing shoes of joy.
It took me about half an hour to get them assembled. I put on my gym shoes and went to strap these bad boys to my feet. My size 9 shoes were far too large for the provided space so I decided to ditch them and go in my socks. I stood up ready to bounce my morning away before I actually had to parent. And with a smile on my face and excitement in my heart I stood up. Only to quickly sink to the concrete. Apparently a 37 year old 140 pound woman is a little to big for one set of rubber bands.
Not to be defeated I added another set of rubber bands and gave it another go.
Holy crap. These things are fun!!! I bounced around my yard for about an hour, taught myself some really sweet jump, and did a lil dancing in them.
I waited for my husband to wake up so he could see all my cool tricks. And then I took them off and demanded for him to hide them and never ever allow me to get on those things drunk.
I can only imagine I would blow out a knee or worse if I were ever to wear them without all cylinders firing.
If your looking for a lil nostalgia and you’re sober. But them! They’re fun.
If your kid is asking for them. Hard pass. The $30 you spend on the shoes will cost hundred on medical bills. These are basically death traps for your feet and there’s not a chance on God’s green earth that I would ever let my kids play with these.
