I got up early enough this morning to walk to work in the thin, pretty sunshine AND stop at the shoe store on the way.

My Merrels have served me well, but they're getting pretty solebare and my big ol' feetses are complaining.

As usual, it was hard to find anything to fit me-even the most 'rugged' womens shoes seem built for the fashion conscious, not at all for my wide, prehensile stompers, so I got me some mens New Balance joggers-they aren't the least bit dainty and they won't go with a dress, but I'd rather be comfortable than fancy any day and they seem to fit pretty well. I walked the rest of the way to work in 'em and made it in good time-well, almost, I was a teeny bit late to massage a ballerina(talk about sore feet! Poor girl).

I got most of my packing done last night, just need to cut some heads of lettuce when I get home, toss 'em in a bag and I'll be ready for Yoel(the artist formerly known as Yoni) to whisk me off to the Critical Massive nudie fest!

WHoohooo!

Should be an interesting test of my new sneakers, I've never hiked in JUST my shoes and socks before...

At least I won't have to think about whether they go with what I'm(not) wearing!
