Heh. Sounds tasty.

Interesting news about Matt's CEO. Sounds like leaving was even more right than he knew. I hope is last day is not too tough on him with the emotional appeals.

I got my new hiking boots! It's a good thing I followed the website's advice and ordered big -- I'm usually a 5 or 5.5, maybe a 6 in sneakers. I ordered a 6 and a 6.5, and it's the 6.5 that fits. They're lightweight and comfortable and seem relatively water-resistant, and I wore them all day today with no blisters!

It's amazing how much less painful and tiring walking is with better ankle support. The first thing I noticed while walking in them was that I didn't have to twist my hip at each step to compensate for my ankle turning in -- I barely notice that I do it when I'm walking in regular shoes, but I definitely noticed that I was swinging my legs straight when I was wearing these. It was a very weird feeling. Cool, though. Too bad I can't get ankle support like that in a lighter-weight sneaker.

Yay hiking boots! Very cool. High top sneakers don't help?

Just had a 4.2 earthquake, centered maybe 20 miles from me. Biggest one DH has been through. Very rolly.

K-Bug and I were in the craft store and she tried to argue with me and say it wasn't an earthquake. Getting home and seeing them talk about it on the news - vindication!!!

I don't know. Last time I wore high top sneakers was sometime around 1989. Do they even make them anymore?

Yikes, earthquake! Stay safe!

Hm, maybe they don't. The one's I was thinking of I bought in th elate 80s. Reeboks, fwtw.

It was not too big an earthquake, I doubt there will be aftershocks to worry about.

Eta: too funny that K-Bug denied it was a quake. DH has only been through the ones that feel like a big truck going by. His reaction was "What the hell was that?"

Converse makes high tops, but no arch support.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

didn't feel it here.

Matt got another offer. which he turned down. his no still is not acceppted. co-workers were just weird. He felt like they were treating him like he was the savior. (as in there would be nothing left if he left) he said it was surreal.

Here are some Reebok hightops: [link] Kind of expensive. More so than I remember.

Looks like all of them are leather. Thanks anyway.
