Today is the last day for these shoes to walk the beat with me. I think I wrote about this pair once before, but today I write to send them off.

I’ve had this pair of Diesel tennis shoes since Christmas of 1999. I’ve worn them a lot for the past 10 years; at least 6 of those years they remained untied (and with their original laces!).

Arguably the best pair of shoes I’ve ever owned - definitely the longest running (ugh) pair - they will be missed.

Eric brought up the idea of stopping in Deadwood, South Dakota during our cross country drive next week, which reminded me of the show (shocking), which reminded me of this ad for the premiere season (maybe not as shocking). And, well, it’s cool.

You are great.

Sharing because I like the way the link (more) is where the quote could end, but it doesn’t.

Failed Idea #1

It wasn’t until I lived with a cat (two, actually) that I had a problem with leaving my laptop open at night.  Sometimes I’d wake up and programs would be open or an IM typed in gibberish that I could only really explain by saying “Diego must’ve walked across my keyboard last night.”

After this happened a few times, I had this idea that someone should invent a laptop or computer keyboard that detects animal paws so that it won’t type at all.  Because it’s an animal paw.

When I told a friend my idea, they said “Or they could just put a switch on the side that deactivates the keyboard.”

Not the fucking point, and I’ll have none of that.

I did. Him, his brother and his dad had a condo inTahoe when my parents used to live up there, so I knew who Jeff Bridges was before I knew who The Dude was.

Actually, The Dude’s real name is Jeff Lebowski, as played by Jeff Bridges.
So suck on that.
