So remember when the shoe repair place killed my boots?

I went boot shopping and found two pairs of boots I did not hate. I bought them in different sizes, because sizes vary between brands and I'm never quite sure what size I am. Anyway, I thought I'd try them on and keep whatever pair fit.

TURNS OUT THEY BOTH FIT.

But BossBoss, most of the admins, and one delivery guy who came in while I was trying them on all said go for the pair that didn't look hideous, despite them being slightly less warm than the hideous boots (the photo really doesn't do their ugliness justice, these are some ugly shoes).

That's what my knitted silk socks are for, after all, though they don't need to know that.

I hate how they've been discontinuing things, lately. Trying to keep up with all the stupid marketing techniques of, like, WalMart, when what they built their reputation on was always having the SAME stuff, so that when you wanted to replace it you could. That was why my grandparents always bought stuff there. Also, if it's defective you can always replace it.
