Shoe mania

OK, it turns out that for this trip, the shoe count is three pairs of shoes and one pair of sandals. I'd probably really like to pack a few more pairs of shoes, but the suitcase is only so big. And I think I got it covered. One really dressy pair in black, one stylish chunky black shoe, one pair of Tsubo's . I walked all over europe in these shoes. They are so comfortable, it should be illegal. Despite the shoelace, this is a slip on. Great for the airport where the nazi bastards have taken to requiring that your shoes must come off. I'm thinking they just want us to be like the Koreans or Japanese and wear thongs (not the underwear kind either. Get your mind out of the gutter.) For those who don't know me personally, I have more shoes than most of the women I date. (And I dated a woman who sold shoes to retailers for awhile.) Well, maybe she had more shoes, but it was close. Now, I know it's slightly aberrant for a man to have a lot of shoes, but the days of having three pairs of shoes for men is over. Welcome to the world of dressing for the occasion guys. My dad once almost shit a brick when I spent $280 on a pair of Cole Haan lofers. I said, I'll have them 10 years. Funny, I've had them 9. I have resoled them twice and they still look great. That's $28 bucks a year. Works for me. lol This is contrary to the women shoe thing. Where they buy cheap shoes and plan to only wear them one season or even only once. Insanity. Need I say more? OK. I'm done then. I may or may not post the rest of the week as I'm traveling, but pop in and check. Perhaps I'll have a juicy morsel for your edification.
