Day 18: Your shoes.

I have a lot of shoes. My mom might even tell you I have a shoe problem. I don't like to shop...but I do like a great pair of shoes. Or lots of great pairs of shoes. I could post pictures of my "shoe shelf", a spinning shelf where I keep all my shoes. Or of the shoes by my door (I think there are currently about 6 pairs there...the sad thing about living alone is that you know that it's always YOUR shoes by the door, making the mess. There's no one else to blame it on).

Truthfully, I'd rather go barefoot. Not wear any shoes at all...which I did for a few months in college...just to win a bet (we tied). But this post isn't about my "I'd rather go barefoot" speech.

It's about my shoes. So, here they are. These are currently my favorite shoes. I wear them. A lot.

To run in.
To play basketball in.
To work.
Whatever.

They're awesome. Seriously. Best pair of running shoes I've ever had. Love them.
I'm not crazy about the pinkish tint of the soles...but they're comfy.
I'm not really into the whole 80's neon throwback thing...but they're fun.
I never thought of myself as a Nike person...but I just really like these shoes.
If you're looking for new shoes. Get these.




I'd just like to point out that my socks match today. This is kind of a rare thing for me. I could say that it's because that's what's in style (at least, according to the girls I work with). But if you've ever met me, you know that's not it.
The truth? It's 'cause I'm lazy. I don't like to fold my laundry. But I do it. But when it comes to matching socks, I tend to just throw them all in my sock drawer.
Why don't you just match them as you take them out? you ask.
Sure, that'd be the easy option. If that's how you start out. But once you don't match one time, it throws everything off...because there's never a match for the first sock you pull out. It's in the dirty clothes. And so I just pull two socks out. No one sees them anyway, they're low cut.

Except for the people that make fun of me for this. You know who you are.

Today. I match.

Hmmm...and they qualify for Day 19: Something Orange...score!
