At times Señora is such a spendthrift. She is attempting to convince me that I have maximized the utility of this particular pair of Sperry boat shoes.
Puts me in mind of a picture that was most likely put in the trash years ago. I had a t-shirt commemorating Arkansas Razorback basketball that I wore for years when I jogged – in Arkansas. It got to the point that there was no cotton left in the t-shirt. Just the base polyester weave, making it entirely see-through. A picture was taken of me as I very reluctantly placed it ever so gently in the kitchen trash can. I was thinking it still had a few more jogging miles in it.
Truth is I have a couple of other pairs of boat shoes that I purchased as I thought perhaps these were a little tacky to wear most places, nearly as bad as wearing a pair of house shoes to the supermarket. Don’t tell Señora, but I did put them in the trash can today. For some reason it had become almost impossible to keep rocks and dirt out of them.
And so they went.
RIP
hahaha! You and Greg. He’s the same way. He also keeps odd pieces of electronics. I’ve been on him for years to get rid of it all. I’m glad he didn’t because some of it recently came in handy when I was looking for cords for my video transfer project. Go figure.
If he didn’t have the piece of old electronics, I probably do. I keep all that… just in case.
