I figured since we were nearing the end of the season and I’ve been the only one still wearing shoe-booties under my Dad’s old “rubbers,” I thought I would take a giant leap into this millennium and purchase a pair of tall boots to make myself look even more hip and cool than I did before I wrote the words “hip” and “cool.”

The boots are surprisingly comfortable provided I don’t wear anything on my legs but warmed butter.

The only question I have is how is everyone else folding their calves in half so you can zip them up? I must have left the store before the sales girl had a chance to show me the three simple steps.

Is there an app for that?

For a friend.
