As I was putting on

As I was putting on my shoes, I was thinking that I needed a new pair. This pair isn't worn out quite yet, but a new pair would look nicer. I tried to remember when I bought them. Oh yeah, Summer and I went shopping together. I had a heck of a time picking out tennis shoes since I seldom wore them. We were in one of those huge sporting goods stores. I felt out of place. But we had a blast laughing and trying shoes on. I can remember deciding on the pair that was a little smaller because they looked better.

Then I remembered why I was I buying shoes in the first place. I was going to his house for Christmas. I wanted to dress casual and needed a pair of shoes to complete my look. I wanted his parents to like me. I thought he was the one. I thought they were going to be my second family. So I bought a cute pair of shoes to make a good impression. I did make a good impression but I'm sure the shoes didn't have a thing to do with it. They were good people. We just clicked. But the whole package didn't work out. It still hurts a little bit this time of year, and I guess it probably always will.

I think it's time to get another pair of shoes.
