Have I Been Here That Long?

It's heating up in the desert, and is time to deal with my flip flop situation. Katie got me an awesome pair of Converse flip flops for Christmas a few years back. Maggie did a number on them back in Warsaw. Well, just on one actually. Chris did an amazing patch up job on them, which got them through until last year, when they finally gave way and broke.

Trying to source a new pair, because let's face it - they're the perfect flip flops for me - the following conversation ensued:

"Do you remember where we got them?"

"I wasn't there when you got them. But didn't we see them at Sports Authority?"

"Sport's Authority is an American store!"

Well, there you go - almost two years in, and I have no idea what sports stores are Australian and which ones are American! For the record, I was thinking of Rebel Sports. Of course, I absolutely could not recall that on my own and had to hit up Google for a map of Northland Shopping Center. It's kind of a bizarre thing.

Anyways, if anyone in Oz comes across any stores that stock these, please let me know. I can't find any, and for all extents they appear to have been a UK/Australian line. I can't for the life of me find any hint that they were ever sold in the States. As far as I can make out they're "Converse CT Sandals".
