Forgive me Millets for I have sinned

I went to Mil­letts and bought some Peter North walk­ing train­ers in the sale — £20.

So I acci­den­tally sort of had to go to the lit­tle sports shop off Chiswick High Road and acci­den­tally sort of look at run­ning shoes and after much crap was talked by both the man and the wallet-man (me) I have walked out of the shop with the most expen­sive run­ning daps they had.

Well. It’s a sunny day. And there’s a reces­sion on. And who knows — the bur­bling shop man may turn out to be an avid reader of my work when I become an acci­den­tally sort of pub­lished (I told you the sun was out, it’s going to my head). So he may end up pay­ing for them over time. If I’m very pro­duc­tive. And he has a fond­ness for hardbacks.

While I’m obvi­ously hav­ing a credit card melt­down I think I may buy some rus­tic bread from Sains­burys and con­struct some sort of con­ti­nen­tal sand­wich (that’s a sand­wich with lots of con­so­nants and garlic).

And then I will sit down and watch the last episode of Gen­er­a­tion Kill on the Sky Plus. And you know — acci­den­tally sort of have some cups of tea.

And then I will very qui­etly whisk my fab­u­lously expen­sive shooz from their paper pack­ag­ing and take them for a gen­tle work­out on the treadie while cheer­ing on the Span­ish Armada beat thingy’s team. Thingy being the Fetch mem­ber whose name has just escaped me.

It’s a sunny day. Stop typ­ing man. And stop read­ing. All is good with my world. Despite acci­den­tally sort of desert­ing New Bal­ance in these trou­bled times. You never for­get your first love (Asics).

Sigh. And if there’s any trou­ble, I bought some zinc oxide tape as well. It seemed like the only glue-based-supportive-technology-bandages they would understand.

Got to go. San­ity cash­ing cheques that real­ity can’t han­dle. ;o) (ie hun­gry now, off for that baguette).
