This is The World According to Buchs - Keepin’ it moving since 2003!

I may have waffled slightly on that iPhone recently (by the way - SO FREAKIN’ AWESOME!).

This time, I’m literally flip-flopping.

I don’t think I’ve owned a legitimate pair of sandals since 1993, unless you count those Adidas shower flops I had a few years ago. I’ve been torn on the concept of the sandal. I love the unconstricted feeling of being practically barefoot. But I have been afraid of that wedge of fabric sticking between my toes. I finally broke down and ordered a pair.

It’s been less than 24 hours, and so far so good. The soles have a layer of cork, which is very comfortable and had already begun to mold itself to the shape of my feet. There’s a slight bit of arch support, so they seem to be OK for walking.

They’ll get the big test this weekend. I’ll bring along a pair of shoes to be on the safe side, but I’m feeling pretty good about this.
