Possession #71 - Slippers

Slippers are making a comeback. Once they were the mandatory in-home footwear. Then they became a dead giveaway for a nerd. And now, everyone seems to be wearing slippers all the time everywhere. Personally, I can't quite abide with slippers out in public. It would feel like walking around with only my underwear on...OK, some people are comfortable with this also. But in my home, slippers are a true sign that work is over and I'm easing into a relaxing evening.

It's taken awhile to find the right slippers. The ones that aren't too tight...not too loose. The ones that keep your feet warm but not too warm. A good pair of slippers should feel like...an old friend - easygoing and comfortable. Maybe I could amend Ecclesiastes to say, "There's a time for shoes and there's a time for .... slippers!
