New Shoes!

Back at Bearathlon I won a gift certificate for a free pair of Saucony shoes. (Triathlons pay off soooo much better than cycling races.)

And I really wanted a pair of racing flats. SO I thought and discussed and thought and consulted and then I ordered the Saucony Type A2.

And yesterday they showed up!!!



But first I had to wait. And wait and wait. I had a UPS sticker on my door on Tuesday. So yesterday when we got back a little before noon I figured I do some work on my computer and wait so I didn't have to go all the way to the UPS store later. So finally at 1:30 the UPS truck pulls up in front. And I wait. And wait. And no one comes in. So I walk out with my sticker and am all (super nice) 'excuse me' and the guy says, 'oh yeah, I think you're my next delivery after lunch. will you be home?' well, i geuss i will now.

So I waited. And waited. And just sat and fucking waited some more. Finally at 2:40 he comes and hands me my shoes. Sigh

But they are wonderful, wonderful. So light and soft and it feels like htere's nothing on my feet but in a good way. I wore them around the house, then I carefully took them off and put them back in the box. I'm going to be sad when they get dirty from racing.
