"New" shoes

At work last night, one of the techs came in and asked me what size shoe I wear. When I said "eight" (on my left foot, anyway), she got all excited and said she had a pair of Chuck Taylors for me. I had no idea she was talking about Converse, and started to worry that maybe she was giving me a pair of dress shoes or something.

 

She put them in my locker and I tried them on and they fit (my left foot, anway)! Yay for pink Converse! I've wanted a pair for a long, long time, and I'm so grateful that she gave these to me. She was going to give them to Goodwill, but they're still in great shape, so she wanted them to go to someone she knows will get a lot of use out of them. That lucky person was me!

 

I'm so excited. My feet are over a size and a half in difference, so I never buy shoes. Ever. It makes me cry. I have to buy two pair to get one pair that fits. Norstrom will let me buy a mixed set, and I did buy my running shoes there about two years ago. Other than that, my last pair of shoes were the Birkenstocks I bought in '02.
