i am so cool

I'm not big on tennis shoes. I have my Nikes that I wear to work out and if I think I absolutely must wear walking shoes. I have to dress up for work, so most of my shoes are of the dressy variety. I wear flip flops whenever I can.

When I learned we'd be doing work in Florida that could be dirty, I decided to buy a some cheap tennies . . . I couldn't risk ruining my Nikes! I soon learned that even "cheap" tennis shoes cost $15-$20 . . . even the kind you find at Wal-Mart! I was about to bite the bullet when I found these gems at Shopko: They were $10. But get this--they were originally $30. THIRTY DOLLARS??? Seriously? They look like they should be worn by a 6th grader . . . in 1993.
