Red is evil! |
When i was a lot younger, my step mom had a red car with red interior and every frickin time I rode in that car I got carsick. I will swear forever and ever until I die that it was due to the red interior.
To me the color symbolizes anger and vomit. I don't need to be thinking about vomit while I'm running a race I'm not exactly prepared for.
So, when Sarah at Fleet Feet brought out these shoes, you can understand why I just couldn't bring myself to spend $90 on this color.
The Brooks Launch also comes in the following three colors.
I would have even taken the ugly yellow ones. I'm not a running shoe color snob, but I must draw the line at red.
You're such a spaz, Mom. I'm embarrassed for you. |
Is there a color you refuse to wear? Or am I the only one?
You have issues.
ReplyDeleteI don't really have any color phobias, but there are some colors I don't like to wear. I can't actually think of any right now, though.
You are the only one. Pippi's look sums it up :)
ReplyDeleteI'm ok with all colors. I even like the yellow shoes. I like bright things.
ReplyDeleteI tend to avoid red too, my older osister told me when I was younger it clashed with my hair so I should avoid it all costs, also pink, purple, and orange.
ReplyDeleteRed is my color! Launch is my shoe! They have come out with red?? WTF! Why didn't I know. I have the white/purple and blue. Must get red. Red looks good on me too.
ReplyDeleteYou kind of are a spaz, but so am I. I don't have an aversion to colors, but I cannot stand nuts. Like will full on spit out food containing nuts. It's not a taste thing, it's a texture thing.
ReplyDeleteI want the red launch too Laurie.
ReplyDeleteI don't have any color phobias either. But, I do have food issues....
Don't feel bad! I'd do the same thing; except, I love the red.
