Me: Uh huh....
Later....
Rachelle: It's my dad! (runs away)
Me: Hi, do you know where the tortillas are?
Have you heard the story of how my father set the Crocs trend?
A couple of years ago, my dad came home with a pair of clunky but comfortable plastic shoes for working in the garden in, bought at Canadian Tire for about ten bucks. My mother's comment? "Those are just about the tackiest things I have ever seen." Dad later picked up a dark green pair for me, and I wore them about as well. They are easy to wear.
Then last year, my mom and I were at Sports Experts when we ran into a display of brightly coloured shoes, identical to mine and my dad's except with a little strap on the back. Selling for FORTY DOLLARS.
I guess this really hit home when I saw R. Ralph wearing a pair of orange ones at school. I always knew my dad was awesome, but it seems that the rest of the world is finally catching on.
Peace.
I love to see you smile.

Do you know...one day after coming home from the Improv party with A. Perez, we actually bumped into the creators of Crocs? And do you know what...they were wondering what to call the little trinkets that were to be put into the holes. We all decided on Crocet(te)s.
And then I saw E. Abramowitz wearing them...so did Perez.
FREAKOUT, LIKE WHOA DUDE.
That's my little insight to today. :)
