Our story is set at 6:58 a.m. The characters are my wife and me.
And – action!
Betsy: (standing in hall, wanting to know my opinion on the shoes she’s wearing for work today)
Me: (genuinely thinking about it rather than giving a knee-jerk answer) (being pleased with myself as a husband ) Good! Those look good.
Betsy: They’re different shoes.
Me: (getting on floor and squinting to verify the difference) Yes they are. (pointing) That one.
Betsy: (silently re-evaluates her life decisions)
I tell my clients I am “precise and detail-oriented,” so don’t spread this around.
The Icelandic Prime Minister once wore a brogue and a trainer to a meeting with the US President. So, odd shoes is entirely valid.
“The outfit’s great, honey! You’re really pulling off that Icelandic Prime Minister look.”
