at least my feet are ready

my shoes are here!

i wanted adventure footgear for my upcoming trip, so i consulted the resident outdoor enthusiast in our office, and he recommended sierra trading post and keen's shoes.

they look slightly odd, but they are supremely comfortable. i tested them with and without socks, with the cord loose and with it pulled taut. once i figured out the trick to putting them on i concluded that these things are just plain awesome.

i can't wait to try them out in a water situation. i briefly contemplated getting in the shower with them, but i didn't want to walk all over the house with wet shoes.

i wore them all evening, cuz i'm a big dork.
