Dearest Geppetto

Thank you so much for your concerns regarding my shoe needs. Yes, I too was thinking that something mythical and only possible in fairy tales was going to work for my low arches, slight pronation problems and wide feet.

However, I think you will be relieved to hear that I will not be needing your cobbling expertise after all. I definitely appreciate the offer and will keep you in mind for perhaps a fantastic glass stiletto--or are those only for the likes of Cinderella?

Besides it sounds like you really have your hands full with that puppet of yours. Believe me, I completely understand as I have a little boy too, albeit not a wooden one, who also seems to have trouble with stretching the truth and getting into all kinds of mischief. What can you do? Boys. . .

Anyway, I am so happy with my new shoes that I even penned a song about them. I know what you are thinking--singer songwriter you are not Nat. But no worries I borrowed the tune from here. Scroll down and click on the Bumble Bee Tuna song if you dare. I apologize and warn you in advance that you risk getting this maddeningly repetitive song in your head for years if you do. So much that you too might be inspired to think up silly lyrics to it like this:

Run Run Infiniti, Brooks Infiniti
I love Inifiniti, Brooks Infiniti
Run Run Infiniti, Brooks Infiniti
Love a running shoe made with MoGo

Huhuhuhuh, skip digigitydigity digity
Run Run Infiniti, Brooks Infiniti
I love Inifiniti, Brooks Infiniti
Run Run Infiniti, Brooks Infiniti
Love a running shoe made with MoGo


The best shoe for me is the shoe we call Brooks Infiniti
The best shoe for me is the shoe call Brooks Infiniti!
Huhuhuhuh, skip digigitydigity digity
Run Run Infiniti, Brooks Infiniti
I love Inifiniti, Brooks Infiniti
Run Run Infiniti, Brooks Infiniti

Thanks again for all your thoughts and advice. I really appreciate it.

I remain, your faithful friend and greatest fan (because let's face it--a talking puppet? Very cool indeed!),
Nat
