After months and months of searching the world for this canvas treasure, it is finally here!
Walking up and down the streets of News York, calling up every Converse All Star distributor in Europe, considering going to Yorkshire to buy a pair in the wrong size and even trying to track down Chuck Taylor's non-dead relatives as I reckoned they surely must be on some sort of an unlimited supply of Converse for life scheme. Some say I've taken it a notch too far, but I'm sure many a people destined for greatness have been told that on the way up.
Of course I am talking about the hunt for the limited edition Wonder Woman Converse All Star trainers that some greater power had apparently determined were not for me. Well, God, Buddha, 8 armed elephant-woman-creature or Thor - whichever one of you is calling the shots - I am having them. Period. Or amen. One of those.
I had to resort to eBay, which has caused me more stress than I could possibly imagine. Who are these people who have nothing better to do than spending their days bidding on super hero sneakers? Not only do they have too much time on their hands, they clearly have too much money as well since they continued to outbid me.
In the end, I got them. At 3.27 AM on a Wednesday morning to be specific. Well worth the lack of sleep, plus it allowed me to catch up on my recorded Twin Peaks reruns. So all in all, that's a win-win situation.
Now all I need is a lasso of truth.
