outside there's a boxcar waiting

Since my family is going to Florida (surprise surprise) in a few weeks (or days? Who knows.) I needed to get a new pair of walking shoes so I don't keel over and die on a bench by Shamu (my sister loves Shamu..).

So this trip to pick tennis shoes was very stressful.  All I could think was that a pair of shoes was going to be fine in the store, but the second we got to Florida, my body would be all contorted and impossible to move.

Needless to say -- a pair was found and I'm still not convinced they'll do the trick.

I'll keep you updated, faithful readers....
