Barefoot

I went running this morning before work and took my work clothes with me in a shopping bag. When I changed in the restroom after arriving at work, I realized that I had not packed shoes. I don't teach today, so there's no real reason why I can't pad around in my bare feet or my running shoes all day, but the first thing I saw on today's agenda was that I had to make a major presentation to our Board of Directors this afternoon. Great. I wandered around for awhile, asking if anyone had a spare pair of shoes (yeah, right, but you never know) and wore a size 7 1/2. My colleague Dorothea came to my rescue. She wears the same size as I, and was wearing a pair of shoes that matched my outfit. When she left work at noon, she left barefoot and passed the shoes to me to wear for the rest of the day. Her husband picks her up, so she didn't have to drive, but still! Thanks Dorothea! I owe you a BIG favor!
