Ohmigod it’s pouring here in San Fran. Ok, not east coast pouring but I’m practically swimming to work. I decided over the weekend I had to get rain boots because the worst thing ever is trying to get through a work day with soggy shoes. They never seem to dry out like the rest of your clothing eventually does.
I shopped around and while I found some rain boots, golashes actually, the thought of trekking 3 miles in a soft rubber boot with no support whatsoever made me go “enh”. I dunno how people do it. I see people in SF trucking around with these boots from Target that look like they have as much support as a sandal. Maybe they have less finicky feet/ankles than me?
So off we went to my favoritest store evar: REI! =D I asked the super helpful guy there (ever notice how ridiculously happy REI workers are?) about waterproof shoes and he directed me to a row of very nice (and rather expensive) waterproof hiking boots. Ugh. I had just spent some decent money to get a new waterproof jacket so spending more on shoes was not so appealing.
Judy came over to take a look and after a couple of seconds, she points at a shoe on the display and asks me, “Isn’t that the same shoe you bought for Half Dome?”
Me: “… Hey! That one does kind of look mine doesn’t it…?!”
Sooo… turns out my hiking boots were a fantastic investment because they are also waterproof! Money saved is yay! (What would I do without you Judy?!)
So now my next purchase is apparently a waterproof cover for my backpack because everything in my pack got wet today. /sigh
Anyways, I have kitty photos today!
Anyways, I have kitty photos today!I think this set turned out a bit too red…
And a really old photo that I finally edited for posting. My kitties are actually pretty good about paper towel and toilet paper rolls. They won’t touch them unless they are on the ground. Anything on the ground is fair game though. Judy left a roll of paper towels on the ground one day and… well, cats will be cats. =)
