Today I felt a bit like Dorothy. Just like her in her ruby red slippers.

Actually, let's be honest, those shoes were never hers. They were snatched off the feet of a freshly killed victim of a freak drop-a-house-on-you accidental murder, and given over to Dorothy by a strange women acting all wobbly and whimsical. Yea, I'd take those shoes too. Noooo Dorothy!! Crazy fool!
They ultimately got her home, but they brought her more trouble than any shoes I've ever owned. And all for a pair of sparkly heels?!
Yea, who am I kidding I'd totally take those shoes too!
But what I would not take, but was forced to take was a pair of ruby red gym shoes. And socks. And a shirt. And a pair of workout pants made of the heaviest, humidity-unfriendly polyester to ever exist.
Yyyyaaaa I love when we have volleyball at school and they make me play regardless of the fact that I forgot and have none of my own stuff. Yyyyaaaa it's soooo awesome wearing other people's stuff. >.<
Here's me, in all my borrowed gear - looking like a misfit champ.
I LOOOVEEEE 'The Wizard of Oz', I am by no means bad mouthing it. It's one of my all time favorites.
Cool kicks, friend!
ReplyDeleteI seem to recall you wearing a borrowed jersey at a JO tourney in Massillon because no matter how many times your kind, supportive parents asked, 'Do you have everything?', the answer that day was NO, and some kind, supportive father drove back home to get your jersey so you could play the rest of the tournament in your own clothes.Karma is a bitch sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember that, funny how the brain works :-P But I'm sure I was a gracious daughter and ever thankful that you would have gone back for my jersey! ^^
