Heading off to work early poses certain hazards. Particularly when it comes to the level of style with which one wishes to carry oneself when it comes to dressing oneself. Just the other morning, in the dark, I grabbed a couple of shoes. One happened to be a black dress shoe and the other was a sneaker. That would have been more than a little embarrassing. And more embarrassing than when I did go to work with one brown shoe and one black shoe.
Gotta keep an eye on that.
I'm known as a Frugal Bastard as I'm careful with my money and don't like wastage. I travel a bit, take lots of photos, make videos and like sharing my own silly opinions on stupid things and spelling mistakes that I discover in the media. Political comment and satire have a place close to my heart. I also major in sarcasm.

I Blame Daylight Savings
It's dark and it's cold when I go to work. I honestly feel that daylight savings should have finished at the end of February and not be dragging on until the end of March.
I know my house fairly well and can walk around in the dark without bumping into too many things. This morning I wanted to leave slightly, only just mind you, than usual as I had a dental appointment following work and would have to leave early. After finishing all of my duties and other compulsive obsessive motions it was time to put my shoes on and go outside. The shoe cupboard is in the dark. I moved towards where I thought the key was and picked it immediately. Then I leant down to the bottom left hand corner where my two pairs of shoes are kept, the rest are almost entirely Miky's shoes, and removed a pair. Put them on and headed out the door.
I'd been at work for an hour before one of my colleagues asked me, "What's wrong with your shoes?" This puzzled me as my feet weren't informing me that anything was wrong. As soon as I looked down I realised the problem. See picture below for a better explanation.
I spent the whole day at work like this. Buggered if I was going to go home just to change my shoes! There were a few people that noticed but several that didn't. On a stupidity level it would have to rate slightly higher than going to the football in team colours a day after the match was played.
I could start a new trend here.
