A coworker of my wife's wanted this particular boot and knew it was online and what the part number was, but she didn't have a computer.
She gave the info to my wife and she looked it up on Payless Shoes' website.
They were out of stock.
I learned all of this while I was at work.
On the way home, the cel phone rings and it's my wife.
"I'm not going to be home when you get home."
I have to ask why, of course.
"Natasha's boots are not available online, but they were able to tell me where they were in stock in town. I'm going to go get them."
Wait a minute! These are NATASHA'S SHOES not my wife's. Why can't she get them herself?!?!
"She lives out in Brandon and the store with the boots is over by USF, so it's much closer for me to get them."
Umm... Why is it so important that the boots be picked up TONIGHT? They're only shoes. You can buy shoes ANYWHERE!
"Natasha wears a size 13. She can't find size 13 boots anywhere!"
SIZE THIRTEEN!?!? MY GOD! You go get those shoes for her ASAP! I'LL make dinner tonight!
Like I said... Could be an ABC Sitcom. Wedge me in between Drew and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
