This morning I got to my office early, graded essays, finalized my lesson plan, and then did some Amazon shopping. I bought home necessities, omega 3 fish oil, and a pair of Brooks Adrenaline GTS 25 walking shoes. I feel chagrined after making such a purchase because I cannot resist the impulse for self-congratulation. “Look at you, you did your shopping, and you’re treating your feet to the comfort and support they deserve. Give yourself a pat on the back, old chum.”
I feel so stupid for having this impulse. I really need to do something truly significant today. I need to be a hero of some sort, but all I can do is put on my G-Shock Frogman and act the part.
