Had a genuinely freaky thing happen today

[florida-again]

I stupidly wore my new tan leather boots the the pub last night.
I noticed this morning that there were stains on them from someones spilt drink (red wine I guess). I was kind of upset as they were really noticeable. I tried to see if they would rub off with my finger but they were firmly stained on.
Anyway I carried on getting ready for work.
I then picked them up again to have another look, and the stains were gone. At first I thought I was looking in the wrong place or imagining it. So I sat down and really took my time. But there wasn't a single stain.

I know it sounds like this is totally impossible but it honestly happened. I don't think I've ever been so freaked out. My heart was racing! I still can't work it out. I think I might call home and get my mum to have a look herself, because I just don't get it!

Hey, that's great! Don't think about it too hard..... just be thankful!

 

[florida-again]

I certainly am grateful! I'm just freaked out that I'm not sure who or what I am grateful too.....very creepy! It definitely wasn't a human as I was alone this morning....oooooohhhhh.....

How much did you drink at the pub

 

[florida-again]

I swear I don't drink! But I was tired this morning so I will be looking at them again when I get home!

That is a little freaky. Are you sure it wasn't just a shadow or something the first time? Thats great that they aren't stained, though.

 

[Sparx]

It might have been a shadow the first time. You did say you were tired. Well either way, at least they're not stained.

I swear I don't drink!

Apparently your boots do!

In college we had a carpet in our room which, I swear to you all on Walt's grave, drank beer. If you poured beer on it, it would immediately disappear. Water, or anything else, would leave a dark spot for days.

And . . . it was TAN!

Maybe your boots are made out of an old Loyola University carpet (we never tried it with wine)!

The boots sobered up

A fellow alum! Where was said carpet?

Mertz 303. Affectionately known in 1978-79 as "The Swamp."

When were you at LU?

 

[Ava83]

90-94 Mertz also....All I remember is that I was on 11..I think 3 was still boys when I went. I hope a new carpet though!

Us Loyola Alums, fine people

OOOOEEEEEEOOOOOOO......

Kinda like Zuzu's petals that weren't there? Did last night really happen? Was it an illusion? Were they maybe someone else's boots that were stained?? Questions, questions...

Ok, stop thinking too much into it. Maybe it was a gift from ol' Saint Nick.
