Something interesting happened this morning. I usually wear sneakers into work and either bring work-appropriate shoes or select from the stash I keep hidden under my desk. I have two pairs of flat shoes that I keep under my desk. They are the exact same pair, only one is brown and one is black. Today, I pulled off my sneakers and socks, put on my work-mandated knee highs, and slid my feet into my flat shoes. I got sidetracked with phone calls and e-mails and it wasn't until I walked past a half a dozen people on my way to the copy machine and someone laughed and told me to look down, that I noticed my gaffe.
Cute shoes, right? This reminded me of the time when I was interning at the Tierney Group and would meet Soska at Saladworks every week. One time, we were forced to skip Saladworks because we had to take the green line back to Drexel so that she could change her shoes because she actually left the house and spent the entire morning wearing a one brown shoe and one black one. It was on that day that I swore that would never happen to me. Obviously I was wrong. Deja vu.
This reminds me of the time that I went to the gym, ran 4 miles, stretched for 10 minutes, and then finally (after about an hour) laid on the mat to do abs, stretched my legs up in the air above my head and realized that I was wearing 1 green and white nike shox and 1 black and pink nike shox. Nice f*ing friends I have- they were probably pointing and laughing at me the whole time...
