Shoes

"...so I walk in these shoes
when I feel it's the blues,
if it ain't it will do..."

~~ from Shoes, by King's X.

Most of the snow is cleared from the streets, but as usual, the parking lot at my place of employment is still good and slick in some places. I parked on an incline, and to save time and energy, I slid down the parking lot in a sustained, controlled slide, until I reached a portion of the parking lot where no snow/ice lay. Entering the building, I noticed my shoe was squeeking. When I sat at my desk, I noticed that the sole of my shoe is split right across the ball of my foot! I mean, I'm practically barefoot! I need new shoes, and I need them right now. If you're reading this, and have extra shoes, please send them ASAP.
