We had to go to Blockbuster for a movie last night. It's my job to run upstairs to Ross to check on the shoes while Tom scours the shelves for movies. Three weeks ago I had stood in line with this very pair, when they were $19.99. At the last minute, I put them back because I had made a solemn vow to buy only girls' shoes from now on. But last night they were down to $12.99 and I broke my vow.
p.s. The movie turned out to be delightful. It was Apres Vous–very funny and sweet, and I watched it in my new shoes.
