The lost flip flop

You will not believe what happened this morning. So I'm walking up the stairs to the el platform at Fullerton and this girl steps on my flip flop. I get a little shaken up and in slow motion I watch my flip flop fall down the platform into no man's land where lost sunglasses, hats, old transit cards, solo shoes etc end up. I stood there in shock like I can't believe that had just happened and looked at the girl. I thought what am I to do? Those are the only shoes I had on me since I leave my work shoes at work. Then the fear struck....am I going to have to take the el with only one shoe and the other bare foot? Man I gave her a look, and she also saw that the flip flop was not on my foot nor on the platform. It had disappeared. She then looked at me as I was still in disbelief and went on her merry way. grr!

Lucklily Adam acted fast and miracoulsy found a CTA worker to unlock the key to the gate of the unknown. A few minutes later I had my gold old navy flop. Needless to say I felt like I had just witnessed a hit and run. The girl clearly stepped on my foot and what does she do? Looks at what she did and kept going. Can you believe that?

Well it got me a little p.o'ed this morning but thank goodness Adam was there to the rescue. I honestly don't know what I would have done. Can you even imagine walking around with one flip on?
