The only pair of shoes I own that are close to tennis shoes are my Converse. They are not Chuck Taylor's, but they are just as cool.
I was first exposed to Converse by my cousins, Brooke and Elise. Thank you for enlightening me. For school one year, they all got Chuck Taylor's. Once I saw them I knew I wanted them. (That was also the year I envied their Sponge Bob tissues.) Anyway, I just got my Converse for my 13th birthday. They are about the most boyish looking thing I own. And, they're fairly girly.
And here is a secret. I don't tie shoes very well. When I was little, my mom bought me shoes that had no laces. I was lace free. It was only about 4 years ago when I actually had to tie my shoes. There were kids in my Sunday school class who could do it wicked fast. I guess that's just not one of my talents. Thankfully, I don't plan on going into a field where shoe tying is required. Converse also have insanely long laces. That does not help those of us who struggle with shoe tying. But I don't really struggle, I'm just not that fast.
As for my fantastic idea, it will have to wait till another day. We got the Jello. But I've been cleaning. And cooking for a pot luck. And Cleaning. And reading. I'm going to the King and I tonight and you can bet your china teapot I'll be wearing my Converse.
Sincerely,
I have tissue issues
PS: It was 6 years ago that I envied Sponge Bob tissues.
