Well, as my friends and family can attest, I am not always as sharp as a nail. I had one of these moments just the other day.

I went through my day as usual. I went to the gym in my gym clothes (I pack my work clothes in my duffel bag the night before) and changed for work right after. I went through my day as normal, came home and took off my shoes right after entering my house. I had dinner with the family, and when I went to put my shoes back on, I noticed that my left shoe was from one pair, and my right shoe was from another…… done laughing?

In my defense, they are quite similar and there’s been a time or two when I’ve mistakenly picked up a shoe from both pair to put on, but I’ve never actually put them on. I am completely flabbergasted that I could go through my whole day an not noticed this. I even remember reaching down to adjust the tongues of both shoes and being surprised that one didn’t need to be adjusted.

To complicate the story, our children are very fond of throwing the shoes by the front door down the stairs and bringing them back up and doing it all over again. I’m pretty sure that my shoes didn’t get mixed up in between me taking them off and going to put them on again… but when I put the shoes on to take the picture for this post, they really didn’t feel right, and I’m almost positive that I would have noticed it when I put them on at the gym. But I also realize that I would probably think that they felt really weird just because I know that they are different.  Anyway, it’s a funny story and the mere possibility that it could have happened makes it worth mentioning, don’t you think?  Really the silver lining in this whole story is that I didn’t notice.  If I had noticed first thing in the morning, I would have been self conscious all day long, and in this case, ignorance is bliss!

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the different music I have going now.  It is exerpts from Pink Floyd’s The Wall , and I plan on giving a post on it next.  Hope you enjoy the change up!
