Boot Toboggan

A glossy pair of bright red rubber boots stood parked by the front mat, practically begging to be conquered. I wedged my lower fuzzy points against the textured heel tread and shimmied straight up the slick shaft. Right as I reached the top rim, my grip gave out on the cool, smooth curve. Whoop! Down I went, tobogganing on my back along the ankle slope and skidding across the prickly coconut doormat until bumping into a fallen wooden clothes peg. My back fluff is covered in stiff bristles now, but that was an incredible slide.
