I have to use shoestrings for belts because my waist shrunk a good 3 inches during my stay in the hospital. apparently the .9% normal saline drips keep you pretty lean. anywho, i don’t really have money to afford extra shoe laces and such for use as belts which i also can’t afford, so one of my shoes is left lace-less. so i was walking down the street carrying some laundry to the laundromat. so my arms were full of soiled undies and even my mouth was full of stinking shirts and socks and this lady asks me where the nearest grocer is. so i try to point with foot but forgot that i was shoelace-less and she got a boot to the side of the head when it flung from off my well intentioned foot. i walked away briskly but struggling to get my boot on as she laid unconcious on the street. garments were falling behind me like breadcrumbs, and i hoped Gretel was on her way home.
