It’s snowing in Shanghai.
Snowing.
Sure, that might help hide the shit on the street and give the whole place a more scenic appearance, but the real question is:
WILL I HAVE TO WEAR SHOES TOMORROW!
I know … I know … if I was a real tough, Northern bastard it wouldn’t matter – but I’m half Italian and have spent the last 15 years living in anti-snow climates – so whilst I’m OK at walking in the cold and the rain [and in public] in my Birkenstocks, there’s a limit to how far my loyalty will stretch and that limit is walking around in fucking snow.
So find out tomorrow if I break almost 15 years of habit by wearing shoes to work – and more interestingly – find out if I actually have any bloody shoes to wear in the first place.
Thank God NIKE and Converse are my clients.
