WHO IS ERICA SWEENY???

* editing to add-hahaha oh. the author. got it

I guess it's gross but I'm barefoot almost all summer long. My feet toughen up but stay smooth like leather. They are not crusty or dry like people that wear shoes. They handle hot roads no problem. I have zero corns, ingrown nails, fungi, cuts, etc.
I've taken a road trip to Florida and stayed barefoot the whole time, inside and out. Fun fact about that trip, I was never asked to put on shoes except during our drive back north, in a mexican restaurant at South of the Border (if you've ever been there, you might find it surprising they were the shoe sticklers).
Two arguments I've received about being barefoot in establishments is: 1. It's unhygenic to the business. 2. It's not safe for me, the barefoot person.
But, any barefoot person knows to watch the ground extra carefully when they walk, keeping track of anything they might step in. Does a person wearing shoes, staring at their phone do that?
AND since the barefoot person has carefully stepped away from anything super dirty, how is it unhygenic for the business? If anything, the construction worker, waitress, and dog shit cleaner all walking into that same business with whatever on their shoes willy-nilly are the unhygenic ones.
Which does mean, yes, I'm walking barefoot on the same floor as the above mentioned shoe wearers, and yes my feet probably are picking something up. All I do then is wash them.
And no I'm not a snob, if anybody asks me to wear shoes I do.
One area I've stopped walking barefoot is in the grass. I've seen how many grass spiders are out there and I just know there's probably some under my feet.
Foot rant over.
