slip slidin' away
let me say
again
one fall
a season
a year
is
all i plan on
so
i walked
very
very
carefully
very
very
slowly
sunday
on
my way
to be
beautified™
like the mail
(i paraphrase)
neither rain
nor sleet
nor dark of day
keeps me
from being beautified™
no need
to add
to
the gloriously
black/blue bruise
on
my oh so flat butt
it was in the 30s
it was raining
the ice
black or otherwise
was
everywhere
i walked
close to the buildings
where i could
under awnings
where i could
if neither
was available
i walked on
the already yellowing piles of snow
at the sidewalk's edge
at least
there
i knew
i would have traction
again
let me say
ugg boots
are
so very warm and comfy
but
they
are
not
meant
to be worn
on
icy streets
they have no traction
the soles are flat
any 'tread' they have
is
purely decorative
the boots
i bought at stuart weitzman on saturday
have treads
real treads
alas
they did not fit with socks
they are lined in pile or shearling
its not as thick as the lining in uggs
so they need a sock
when i tried them on
i wasn't wearing socks
no socks necessary
with the uggs
i had on at the time
i bought the 9.5 narrow
they told me i could return/exchange them
if they didnt fit
when i got home to try them with socks
they didn't
a pair of 10 are ordered
i will have them
in a day or three
of course
by then
the streets will be ice free
i hope
this
was
west 79th street
at almost 10 a.m.
sunday morning
dreary
icy
rainy
blah
