Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

Teacher Shoes

I got my Teacher Shoes a few weeks ago and it’s almost time to wear them, so I thought I should write about them. I get a new pair of Teacher Shoes each year. I wear them every day of a school year, so they’re pretty worn out by June. Even if they don’t wear out, it’s an excuse to buy new shoes, which, by looking back on bradaptation, I seem to like to do.

Often, the first pair of shoes that I like will end up being the pair I buy. Usually I go to one store after another looking for something I like better than the first pair I’ve spotted. This year, I just decided to buy that first pair. I haven’t been disappointed. Since I got these shoes, I’ve been looking and haven’t found anything I like better.

I like these because they’re quite different from last year’s. They’re rounder and lighter and elastic-y. You could almost say sporty, but I won’t, because we’re talking about a pair of shoes for ME. 🙂

I put some pants on to spare you from seeing my legs again.

    These babies wouldn’t be patent leather,would they? Look at the great reflective shine off the top of your right shoe! Your students will be “wow”ed and will know right off what a hip, cool and with-it teacher-dude you are, sir. Plus, way to go on the purchase after your first stop this time – think of the gas you saved!! Now, can you have a talk with my husband and brothers-in law who follow your former pattern and drive me bonkers with it?

      I don’t think they say “spiffy” anymore …

      But boy howdy, those are groovy, far out, totally tubular …bodacious man!!!

    Snazzy! That’s what my mom would say.
    BTW – elastic-y is just another sign that your getting old! Sleep habits, high cholesterol, …

      HAHA!! That is so true Michele! Brad has now officially been ejected from the young & cool group into the Old Age group. Brad-please tell us that your new school pants aren’t plaid (or you’ll skip Old Age & advance directly to Elderly)!

      • Beth

        More importantly, tell us that your new school pants are not elastic!
        That would be devastating…elastic pants…there’s no recovery from those…

    I like ’em! They look like they have racing stripes!
