I Am NOT Wearing Those

To croc or not to croc that is the question. I got a pair AGAINST all primal instincts of my own style loving soul as an experiment. There could not be part of the shoe realm that was popular that I had not at least TRIED to like. So home came my first pair of florescent green crocks and like a lot of things that your brain tells you NO and you still go forward because of some misguided nudge from pop culture I fell in love with the comfortable ugly soles. So like any wonderful partner I decided misery loves company and I would get Mr. Rogue to love them too, of course against his will. Upon presenting him with his surprise pair brought home from the farmers market the following conversation pursued:

Mr. Rogue: “Those are UGLY, you don’t expect me to wear those.”
Me: “I know that is your instant reaction but you can’t throw them away until you at least try them on.”
Mr. Rogue: “I won’t wear them.
Me: “Just try them on.”
Mr. Rogue: “They are super comfy; I guess I could wear these for yard work.”
Me: “Ha, another one bites the dust.”
