The fact that you went you went out in your slippers is a bit revealing about how addicted to caffeine you've been ;)

Go and see a doctor you need your head examined. No one in that is sane gives up caffiene. Muy Loco!

How dare he even question you. He must be a newbie government employee. Section 45, Part 4, Sub-section 36b of the Government employee handbook clearly states, "Any employee who inadvertently forgets to wear or misplaces their shoes is authorized to wear any slipper, houseshoe, or otherwise mentioned footwear described in subsection 36c." 36c was recently updated to include a variety of slippers including but not limited to: Spongebob Squarepants, bear claws, pink bunnies, and fuzzy flip flops. BTW, K-State is going to beat KU in 2 weeks. Just so you know.

I swear, you and I could be long lost siblings...I was pretty sure that I was the only one who forgot to put on shoes every once in awhile. What can I say, my slippers are comfortable, they remind me of going to bed...
I tried to quit caffeine once. All that happened was that I had a killer headache for three weeks and a really, really bad attitude.

What are slippers? Are they related to bath robes?

Fricken hilarious!
I had a moment similar to that...I think...
When I was working as a paraprofessional in a 3rd grade classroom... I came to school with one black and one brown shoe on... Didn't notice it until I sat down to work with my student. I looked down and about lost it... Another student noticed me notice and started to giggle. Needless to say I got her in trouble for "acting up". I then had to call my boyfriend to come bring my other brown shoe!
It was so weird...you'ld think you would notice such a thing, especially if they were two different hieght shoes!
Your posts crack me up though!! I love it!

I knew the thought of UNC being ranked higher than KU would rattle you sooner or later. Yep, you can glare at me now!

In the name of all that is holy, why give up caffeine?????? Kick the Coke, keep the caffeine.
Well, at least you did not show up in your jammies. Or, did you?
