Data point A: It is supposed to thunderstorm tomorrow.
Data point B: The comfortable yet stylish sandals I wore with ALL my summer dresses broke earlier this summer.
Data point C: I have new perennials that went into the ground a few weeks ago, and they haven't been watered in five days and are starting to droop. (For the second or third time this summer. I have taken them to the brink before because I am a bad plant mommy.)
Data point D: I got the original shoes repaired, and I swear, I even picked them up and brought them home, but now I cannot find them ANYWHERE. Yes, this is infuriating. Somewhere in my house, there is a brown paper bag holding my favorite shoes.
Data point E: But it's been really humid lately.
Data point F: Even if I get new shoes, I'm not sure it's wise to try to break them in by walking around a huge convention for five days.
Data point G: Just because it says it's going to thunderstorm tomorrow doesn't mean it actually will. It could easily be dry for five more days until I get home, at which point, my new perennials will likely be dead.
Data point H: I can always pack a pair of sneakers and/or flip-flops to switch out with the new shoes if they get too ouchy. I will lose some style points, but I won't murder anyone out of sheer foot-pain rage.
Okay, you now have all the information I have, and I believe know everything you need to know to make this decision. Please advise. And yes, fine, if I hurry, I might be able to do both. Maybe. If I don't spend too long waffling about the shoes.
Water. Storms are more unfaithful than old shoes.
So what did you decide?
Got shoes, watered half the yard, Kevin promised to get the other half. 🙂
