First, for me they are called slippers
Liese and I are one on this one. It's not a deference to caucasians, but it's a Everyone in Hawaii calls them slippers, or more phonetically slipp-ahs.
Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Home now. So ready to go to sleep.
But, weighing in on the very important subject of flip flops, I always had that problem with the pain between the toes, which is why I didn't wear flip flops. But then, one day, I saw these absolutely adorable Coach flip flops that I simply had to own, pain be damned.
But there was no pain. Just joy and cuteness. So now I'm willing to pay stupid sums of money for the right flip flops.

Just watched ep 3 of Heroes. Eventually I will catch up. Unfortunately, a marathon on tv doesn't help as there is no way I can watch that much of what I want anymore.

No, they call that a superhero.

90-some new posts, 70-some about flip flops. I love this thread.
Also, the flip flops with a flat bit in between the toes are much better than the ones with a round bit in between. Also, I think I have pudgy toes, as I've never had any bone bruising. I sometimes have trouble keeping them on. (Doesn't mean I won't wear them nine months out of the year, though...)
And will there be leather pants?
Only if Unca Tim loves us verra much. Ok, at least me.

I think Tim should watch Dexter. Like someone said earlier, it's sort of like The Inside episode "Pre-Filer." But twelve times better.

I haven't really worn flip-flops in years, but back when I lived in California, I found the soft ones with rubber or plastic between the toes excruciating. Harder-soled ones with cloth in between still chafed a bit, especially at the beginning of the summer, but were much more comfy and worth it for the coolth. I find there has been much less need for coolth since moving to Alaska though. Occasionally it's hot, but not long enough to break in flip-flops...or feet.

I know that this is not the best part of having a child, but reading this just made me happy for you and mac all over again. I don't know if I've written this before, but he really is adorable, and you both look wonderful together, and I'm so very happy for you msbelle.
