the zapato conspiracy

why did i get half way to work this morning and realize i had on the wrong color shoes.

you could not TELL me that those shoes weren't brown when i put them on. clearly my shoes are possessed by demons and morphed into black shoes somewhere on the journey.

i get out of the car at the station, walk a good 50 feet, and just happened to look down at my feet: "hey, why are my shoes black??" i said out loud.

"they're black because you put on black shoes, idiota" i replied.

funny thing is, when i first put the shoes on at home, i thought to myself, "boy, these shoes sure look dark today..." but i shrugged it off, thinking it was because i didn't have on the lamp and was dressing only by dim sunlight filtering through the blinds.

turns out, the shoes were so dark because they were black and not brown. my outfit is brown...the black shoes looked ridiculous to me. in my defense, i have 2 pairs of the same shoe, one in black, the other in brown. i promise you i thought i had put on the brown pair at home.

this blazing heat and humidity got me trippin'. or else my shoes are plotting against me. i think that's what it is.

you better believe i turned right around and went back home to change shoes.
