Okay, here's the deal, I know pedicures don't seem like that big of a deal to most people, but the idea never sat well with me. I'm not really a fan of strangers touching me and I would always imagine the person giving me the pedicure being grossed out and judging my feet. As if my feet would be the worst they've seen. That's how insecure I was about it. Now, I've given it a try and it's still a bit strange to have someone I don't know grabbing all over my feet, but not too bad.
This is a completely rational fear to me. As much as I would like to think of myself as a tough kind of chick, I know that it's unlikely I would be able to overpower someone if I was ever attacked. I hate knowing that. I always hope that if I ever do find myself in one of the crazy scenarios I often imagine, that a huge adrenaline boost will give me some freak of nature type strength. I wasn't even walking in a particularly dangerous area, but was still pretty freaked out. I've watched far too much murder television not to assume that any place can be unsafe.
