I must have been very tired

silly, awkward, mismatched shoes, tired, work

Yesterday morning, I did my usual get-dressed-by-the-light-of-the-TV while getting ready for work. It wasn't until I got off of work and stepped out of the car back at the house that I realized I wore mismatched Crocs that day. Fortunately, they were both work-appropriate Crocs with no holes in the body and with slip-proof soles, but they were definitely from different pairs of shoes. I just have to laugh at myself sometimes. Have you ever done something like this?

Nope... but I've never tried getting dressed in the dark when I didn't want to wake anyone else up. My first wife always left the house before I did so she was the one trying not to wake me up and my second wife went to work at the same time that I did so it didn't matter if we woke each other up. I'm surprised somebody at your work didn't notice your non-matching shoes.

I'm also surprised no one noticed! Or maybe they did and just didn't say anything.

@spiderdust That's possible... They might have just assumed you spilled something on your shoe, too.

Art-deco feet. Very nicely done.

@spiderdust Sometimes accidental art is the best kind.

Not shoes, but frequently socks. And I have a standard answer: “I’ve got another pair just like it at home.”

I've done the sock thing before too. I worry less about that, especially since I remember when mismatched socks were trendy.

I wish I knew if no one said anything because they didn't notice or if they were being polite.

No. I've never done that. That's funny.

I think this was the first time I've done something like that!

No, I have never done like this. Still these crocs are matching in colour so no one might have noticed it.

They are two very different patterns.

Maybe everyone at your work though they did match you never know.

I suppose that the feeling of wearing them it's not very different. I would immediately know if I am wearing two different shoes, too different one from another.

Years ago, I knew a fellow in one of my classes from the previous year. He was always quiet. One day I dropped my pen, leaned over to pick it up and noticed his shoes--he had on one black tennis shoe, and one tan colored one. I asked him if he did that on purpose, his comment was he had worn them all week, waiting for someone to notice, and I was evidently the first person that did. I guess we just don't notice some things like we should. Those shoes would be rather easy to mix up with the colors being so similar.
