My new office shoes

No I didn’t break them…but I am breaking them in around the office. I might wear them all the time if they are comfy enough.
I know I can wear them for up to two hours around the house.

I couldn’t wait to wear them.
Oddly, I’ve already gotten a number of questions at the office, I’m sure you will have many of the same questions so, being the nice little office hobbit that I am, I’ll answer them in advance.

Q: Does the stuff feel weird between your toes?
A: No

Q: Are they going to let you wear those around the office?
A: I’ve worn bowling shoes before and fancy aqua-socks are just like a close cousin…to bowling shoes, I mean.

Q: How hard are they to get on?
A: Not hard, once you get the hang of inch-worming your toes into your shoes.

Q: Won’t they smell?
A: Not s’posed to – they have anti bacterial stuff made into the material. But…if…anyone is qualified to test the quality of anti-bacterial chemical warfare, it’s me.

Q: Are you going to start running in them (they are ostensibly running shoes)?
A: Only to get away from bad guys.

Q: What about your crooked toe?
A: What about it?
(okay okay nobody at the office…until now…knows I have a crooked toe so I made that question up since I am sure knowing family and friends want to know just how much these shoes can take…they can take a LOT of crooked.)

Q: Do they come with painted toe-nails? (actual question by the way)
A: Actually…no, I am not aware of a model that simulates that. There are a ton of other styles, pink ones etc. Besides, no self-respecting office hobbit would be caught dead with painted toe-nail-shoe-things on their feet.
How garish.
