Milestone: To sandal or not to sandal

Humuhumu now wears the same size shoes as I do.

Shoe theft has occurred. My Birkenstocks. Argh.

The bloke thinks she will be taller than I am, because she's only 11, and this will therefore only be a phase so eventually I'll get them back.

I face a burning question: do I go six months without Birkenstocks, and thus unable to wear the complete standard-issue academic scientist uniform, or do I purchase a new pair?

Do I buy a new pair of Birkenstocks?

Yes, you should buy them in a different style (that one with the toe loop you were hankering after).

No, you should wait until they return to you because Humuhumu has outgrown them.

I think you should go with what you prefer and can afford.

Buy the new style. When Humuhumu returns the old style, you'll have two pairs. PROFIT!
