I Am Sad, As In Pityful

A few weeks ago on a forum I frequent a fella sold off some Kifaru boot bags, yes a bag to keep your muddy boots in. He had three, I missed the colour I wanted but I bought one anyway. I kept my stalking boots in it. Just a bag to keep my muddy boots in.

Usually I only confess things like this to Chad and The Northern Monkey, but such is my shame I'm going to tell you all.

The guy who bought my first choice of colour put his up for sale, and sold it while I was off line, so I wrote to the buyer


He wrote back straight away "We are cut from the same cloth!" and we swapped bags to keep our muddy boots in. I feel so ashamed, but somehow comfortingly colour co-ordinated.

Until the next time

    Nothing wrong with color coordination. Sometimes things like that help with packing speed or using the right tools when you're dog tired, injured or weak from a disease or a wound. I have an eye problem that creeps up every few months. There are certain, very important things, that I regularly put in exactly the same place. I stock these items heavily so that when I am wandering around the house with all the lights off and sunglasses on I can still get to them so that I can get through the day or two before I feel better.

    I would chalk up to not wanting to break up your camoflage patten. We can all be obsessive from time to time.

    All my girlfriends who are sheepish about wanting to wear articles of clothing with matching camo will feel MUCH BETTER about themselves when I show them this post.

    Thanks for the laugh. Not boring - nice to see guys can be as worried about matching as us women can be. Makes me think of My Cousin Vinny though when she says "do you think the deer cares what kind of f...n pants your wearing." Keep it fun - thanks!

Please feel free to leave comments. I really enjoy hearing what readers think. The rules are the same as round my dinner table:

You're welcome to disagree, life would be way too boring if we all agreed with each other and we'd never learn anything.
I like to think that we're all grown up enough to argue every last point, right down to the bone, without bearing a grudge afterwards.



Come on in the waters lovely
