I am a native in this world And think in it as a native thinks

Great, kid. Don't get cocky.

After congratulating myself in my post this morning on how much more aware I'm becoming, I went off to the office where it took me until lunchtime to realize that I hadn't changed out of my sneakers.

Or rather, I hadn't changed out of both of my sneakers. I spent the morning walking around in one loafer and one sneaker. I even noticed that my feet didn't feel quite right; the foot in the loafer was less constricted and I wondered if the shoe was getting stretched out. I even looked at my feet to see if the loafer looked funny, and didn't notice that I was wearing two different shoes.

I am suitably humbled. I clearly am not quite as good at being present as I thought I was, though apparently I am still extremely talented at being a doofus.
