Dare: Accepted

I am not, at the core, a rational person. I do a lot of irrational things, think irrational thoughts, and say irrational words.
However, I do try to live up to my agreements, even if I made them in one of my more irrational moments.
So, on a facebook post with a good friend, the following happens:
Her: [posts a picture of a gothy leather boot thing with toe spikes and rose decor and stuff]
Her: This looks awesome and it might kill me
Me: This would be great for Origins Gaming Convention
Her: I would die and take others with me
Me: I would wear them in solidarity with you just for that
Her: That would almost be worth it
Me: You buy me a pair, I'll wear them
Days later, I have forgotten this entire conversation.
Her: Hey, what's your mailing address?
Me: [address]
Me: I bet she's going to send me a box of cheese like she did 3 years ago
Days later, I am expecting two packages to arrive at my door. Three packages arrive.
Me: Huh. What the hell did I order?
Me: Oh wait, she sent me cheeses, haha, what are the odds of everything showing up at the same time
Me: .........
Me: These aren't cheeses, these are boots.
Me: OH NO SHE DIDN'T
Me: OH YES SHE DID
My bluff was called, and I am an honorable dude. I put on the boots.
Me: Huh. These are actually pretty comfy.
Me: [walks]
Me: FUCK HEELS ARE HARD
Me: FUCK I'M TALL

Will I be practiced enough to wear them for a full day at a convention? WE SHALL SEE
