I am looking at some christian loubiton pumps, dreaming about that which I can't have ($700 shoes, really?) And then my brother asks, "Why are they called pumps?"
(I begin to laugh.)
brother: So I'm serious. Why are those shoes called pumps? In the early 90's there were these basketball shoes called Pumps. There was a basketball on the tongue and you pumped the basketball, so thats why they were called pumps. But seriously why do they call these shoes pumps? Why are you laughing? I want to know!
me: I think I'm going to blog about this.
brother: How do you know if people read your blog?
me: Well if you want to you can become a follower and then it shows.
brother: Well nobody likes being a follower.
