👟
I mean the very specific sensation of knowing you're wearing exactly the right shoes for the task at hand. Like the way that the fabric moves is so perfect for the activity you know you made exactly the right choice. Some examples:
Ballet shoes for when you're dancing and pointing your toes
Slingback kitten heels for when you're seated to sip drinks in a nice bar
Comfortable walking shoes that support your ankles when you're hiking
A pair of light trainers in the summer that grip the pavement and don't make your feet sweat
Chunky boots in the winter that you can feel are completely waterproof

1. "Sneakers" -- Everyday, comfortable shoes that present as casual.
2. "Work Shoe" -- It could be a nice loafer, a heel, or steel-toed boots. Regardless, you need them for work.
3. "Workout Shoe" -- Maybe you rock climb and need special shoes, maybe you need those Peloton bike shoes, or maybe they're just Goodwill running shoes.
4. "Slippers" -- Comfortable shoes that are too comfy for the everyday sneaker. You usually wear them in the house. They could be traditional slippers, Crocs, flip-flops, or something similar.
5. Cowboy Boots -- Self explanatory, but obviously optional for some. I have party/going out boots and formal boots, but I'm your friendly neighborhood house party cowboy.
6. "Weather Appropriate" -- The shoes you need for your environment, such as snow boots or warm-weather sandals.
7. "Mania Shoe" -- Optional but encouraged. This is the pair of shoes you bought in the heat of the moment and have worn maybe twice.

1. Don't set an alarm and wake up naturally. Snooze for however long you want to, it's okay
2. Have breakfast. For me it's toast. Have it with butter/jam/honey and a lot of water and coffee and juice.
3. Listen to an album in full and do some puzzles until it ends. I like to stick a record on and do the nyt games (connections, then wordle, then the mini, then I'm ready for a crossword)
4. Shower and use all your best stuff. Smell great. Make your hair feel soft.
5. Wear an outfit you don't get to wear that often. I tend to wear the same thing over and over at work so I wear something a bit more fun and less practical.
6. Go outside. I live near a road with secondhand shops that are great browsing but quite tempting on a budget. To beat the temptation just look in the windows and then walk round the streets or to a green space if it's a nice day. Walk as fast or as slow as you like. Try and spot cats that might let you stroke them. See how each place you go smells different. Walk down streets that you've not been down before just because.
7. Come home and decide how much energy you have. If you have energy do an activity (I would write, play an instrument, do some art, read, play a game) if you don't then watch something from your watchlist. Saturdays feel like a good day to watch something new.
8. Cook yourself a meal. Start before you're hungry and spend ages on it. Use every pot. Listen to music. Sing whilst you wash the dishes.
9. Play! Video games, board games, internet games, card games, phone games, rearrange your plushies, embrace your inner child. Play with ideas, experiment with felt tip pens, write a limerick. Get silly with it.
10. Talk to your friends. Invite them over, call somebody up, text that person back you didn't have time to. I like to spend a good day off by myself then have a great time talking to people after I've recharged.
11. Have so much fun getting to do whatever you want you fall asleep at whatever time. Monday - Friday is about appeasing your body clock, Saturdays are for filthy pleasures like falling asleep at 3am because you were too busy flirting or reading or watching videos.
