Conversation with Mr. W
Mr. W called me a couple hours ago to tell me that he took a little trip to Famous Footwear on his lunch hour…
Mr. W: I have to get rid of my new shoes…they are still hurting my feet, so I wore my New Balances today. But, I was sitting at my desk, wondering what this horrible smell was, when I realized, it was the shoes. So I went to Famous Footwear and bought a pair of basketball shoes and some new regular tennis-type shoes to wear on days like today. But I have to take them back.
Me: Ok…why do you have to take them back?
Mr. W: They are too shiny.
Me: What did I tell you about buying shoes that are shiny? (We’ve had previous conversations about his unhealthy adoration of shiny sport-type shoes…it’s a little scary…no, really,…scary!)
Mr. W: Well, they didn’t look so shiny in the store, but they are definitely too shiny, so I have to take them back, and now I’m wearing my basketball shoes…(trailing off…)
Me: I love you.

I skimmed through a few of your posts…don’t have time to read the entire webblogsphere.etc like I’d like to but yours was readable. wwwDOTthewvsrDOTcom is a good one. I wish I could post daily but it looks like semi-yearly is all I have the time for; ain’t that a shame…
“yours was readable” is a complement BTW
