Sandals are practically the only shoe I ever wear, all year long, even in winter. I don’t care if it looks stupid to wear socks with sandals, I do it anyway. Yes, in winter, I’m a sock & sandal wearing dork.<\/p>\n

My last pair was a superstar of the sandal world. They weren’t birkenstocks, surprisingly (I’m not allowed to buy birks anymore, because apparently they make me look too lesbian). They were Merrell, red ones, and I loved them so much. I still love them. After three years, I continue to wear them, constantly. But three years is a long time for a pair of shoes, especially as much as I’ve worn them, and they are getting kinda ratty.<\/p>\n

Time for a new pair! Woo! I love getting new sandals. I was going to get another pair of Merrells, same style that I have now, but then I spotted these<\/a> at REI and I had to have them. The website for Keen is top-notch annoying, but I don’t plan on wearing the site, so it’s okay I guess.<\/p>\n

I got them earlier this week. Last night we noticed that the right shoe and the left shoe, while both green, were totally different shades. All week long I was wearing two different colored shoes, and hadn’t even realized it. Now I look at them and I think “how did I miss that?” it’s so obvious. I called the store and they told me to bring them in and we’ll get it straightened out.<\/p>\n

It’s strange, they only have one shade of green in that style, so I don’t know why one is more minty and the other more olive, but it looks stupid. I hope they don’t say it’s just the way the shoe is made and tell me to live with it.<\/p>\n

I don’t know why I think anyone is interested in my new sandals, I’m just bored at work. Oh!! The best thing about these shoes? No, the two best things about these shoes? a) they are totally waterproof–not only can I get them wet, I can actually throw them in the washing machine to get clean. And b) the strap is this sort of bungee cord deal and it’s fricking awesome.<\/p>\n

Also, I’ve been having a good time lately with puns and play on words, be patient as I work through it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
