Prologue
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
arosoff requires a new pair of shoes to wear to her sister's wedding. arosoff and eldar approach the Roosevelt Field Mall, and park by Nordstrom. At least it's not busy, being a Monday morning during school.
1. Nordstrom
arosoff peruses the many, many, pairs of shoes on display at Nordstrom, and doesn't appear to be impressed. Except by some very expensive designer shoes. arosoff and eldar move on.
2. Bloomingdale's, Macy's
Nada. Zip. No dice.
Interlude: Lunch
eldar gets a turkey, ham, cheese, and mustard sub hero. And some beer. Nobody knows where the bottle opener is, so the beer goes unconsumed. From teh vantage point of a bridge, eldar and arosoff also witness the aftermath of an accident on Interstate 495 (a.k.a. the Long Island Expressway, or just plain LIE). This has a bearing on a future happening, and is considered an essential detail.
3. Walt Whitman Mall
Including Bloomingdale's #2, Lord & Taylor, and Saks 5th Avenue. No shoes, although some were tried on - and discarded. Brief respite is found in Barnes & Noble - a humble bookshop.
Interlude: Dinner
See previous descriptions of dinner, but a bottle opener had been purchased so the beer could be consumed. Dinner was veal chops.
4. Roosevelt Field Revisited
eldar was expecting a long, long, evening as arosoff tried and tried shoe after shoe. eldar didn't count on the assistant at Nordstrom. The assistant at Nordstrom not only sold arosoff the pair of shoes she wasn't after, but was almost the same as the ones she'd picked out, but also managed to sell her another pair of shoes she hadn't been looking for but actually had been looking for.
Epilogue
Ice cream for all.eldar got cookie crumbs sprinkled on his.
