New shoes?

I seem to be going through my shoes about every three months. I guess it doesn’t help that I had a stockpile of my expensive running shoes and I wear them to walk to work. I don’t think they’re meant for my plodding commute, 40 minutes each way. My quick calculation would indicate that 40 minutes is only two miles, but whatever. $100 * 4 isn’t exactly cheap.

So I thought I should get shoes that are a bit more rugged. I thought I saw some interesting ones on House, MD but on closer inspection, they just look like some sort of Nikes.

You can see the springy things towards the heels.

Dunno why I wanted shoes like the arrogant doctors on the show, but you have to start somewhere. I think I’ll probably end up going to REI and buying whatever fits. I think I also need a bigger belt.

Some one set us up the bomb.
