At a friends house after work one evening I met a guy who was visiting Chicago from California. Everyone was laughing and telling stories. Then I looked down and saw his shoes. I had never seen shoes like these in my entire life, so I decided to ask him about them. The following conversation documents how I learned about what I like to call Cali Comfort.
Me- What inspired you to wear those shoes?
Tim- I had boots on but I felt like I was trying too hard.
Me-Oh, makes sense. But what inspired you to wear these shoes?
Tim-They are actually called Sanuks, they have them in different styles.
Me-Really? Why did you decide to wear those shoes today?
Tim-Comfort. And they don't smell, I've had them for 2 years, and they don't smell. Its all about ventilation.
Me- They don't smell at all? That's weird.
Tim- Here, I'll show you (he puts a shoe in my face, and surprisingly, they don't smell)
Me- Weird.
Tim- Told you.
Me- Smile. Makes sense.
Tim- California meets Midwest.
Me- Loves it.
They may not be that aesthetically pleasing, and I will most likely never own a pair of Sanuks, but now I 'get it.' California is about comfort, and I love it. I love that it's about the 'feel,' and Tim's feet are thanking him everyday. Congrats to Tim.

4th blog still no mention of your bff...weird
you will be in lots of my blogs, remember the day I said to you, "I don't know what I would do without you in my life, you are ALWAYS inspiring me and letting me be ME!" :)
Actually, I like them...the way they look, for a guy at least, as for me I will be sticking to the F Me Pumps :)
Oh and by the way, stop smelling other people's shoes!
Wish they all could be California Giiiiirrrrrrllllls! ;)
I love this blog. This is the first time I have seen it and I am DYING, and so is Tim. I love you!
