May. 16th, 2022 10:29 pmI dunno. I don't seem to feel like posting by the time night rolls around. I guess I'm still having a touch of post-covid fatigue. This trip to see Angelbaby graduate will be the first long trip we've taken in forever, and I'm having a lot of anxiety about it, for no particular reason except that I'm not used to leaving my hermitage! I'm trying to pack, but it's like pulling teeth. I was going to iron my shirts tonight, but didn't.
I did FINALLY order some new shoes, and got them shipped to me in time for the trip. Shiny grey New Balance 990s, size nine and a half men's wide! They are fearfully expensive, but I haven't bought new shoes in at least four years, other than the ones for the wedding, which were super cheap, like the equivalent of coffee and a muffin. And wonder of wonders, they fit right off the bat. Yay! When I say I have big feet, I'm not kidding. It was funny last summer when we visited Mr. Science: there were three pairs of 990s, identical save for size and wear, lined up on the shoe mat. Mr. and Ms. Science both wear them too. And you know that if Mr. Science thinks they're the best shoes, this must be most infallibly true.
