This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Good suggestion. While I would only use EH here, switching over mentally to CJD is probably a better idea.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel like I need snow boots. What do we think of these? [link] They seem kind of expensive, but not if it's actually going to snow a lot, right? I'm assuming I'm shopping for something I can wear to work with skirts without looking like a jackass.

It's not like you moved to Alaska, Jesse! I dunno, rubber boots to work? Would you change shoes at work? If not, maybe look for leather? They make some stylish but warm leather boots.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They seem pricey for wellies, but I suppose that's the shearling part of it.

The thought was I would change at work, yes. I have no idea what I need! Maybe I will continue to wait and see. I looked at Lord and Taylor the other day, and the only leather ones that seemed like they had appropriate traction were $250. I guess I won't really be walking through snow, right? I mean, people clear the sidewalks here....

Jesse, these? [link]

Keen, Merrell, Teva all make leather boots now.

You sound like you're doing a lot of walking. There's walking before the snow gets cleared, on packed snow, through the drifts--there are all sorts of places traction is good.. Then there's mushy and icy to consider.
