How does footwear end up in the middle of roads?
You know, the ones that look like roadkill from a distance, only after which the vehicle you're in gets closer do you breathe a sigh of relief as you realise it's only a slipper... wait, what? I mean, how do they get there? Do they fall out of the back of footwear delivery trucks? If not, how do you lose one side of your shoes and not notice? It usually just looks pretty macabre to me.
Anyway, today I was reminded why I haven't been to town on a Saturday in quite awhile. I especially hate crossing big roads where people just pile up; you're sandwiched, unable to move and you can only wait helplessly as the traffic thingamajig is counting down to the possibility of you getting run over.
Poptart tonight. Wheee.
