I'm hardly Prince Charming

Today was a very humorous day. This morning I woke up early to shuttle my mother to the nearby indian casino. Once we arrived, mother took off to the keno slots that fill her heart with joy, while I headed to the coffee shop to fill my gut with a extra hot white chocolate mocha. I sat down to read for a few hours. After my vision blurred and my stomach began to growl, I made my way over to my mother at the keno slot machine. I sat down and mother procedes to tell me that she lost her shoe.

Wait a sec...

Back up...

"You did what? You lost your SHOE?"

"Yes, I lost my shoe."

"Where do you think you lost it?"

"I don't know."

"How do you lose your SHOE?"

...She further explains that she was on her scooter riding around and it probably fell off somewhere.

At this point, I am laughing hysterically. She is sitting there with a shoe on one foot and only a stocking on the other. I then said that they probably have a lost and found. lol Wow,I didn't think I'd still be laughing about this one... anywho, I got up and went over to the service desk and asked for the lost and found.

"Yes, we have a Lost and Found. What did you lose?"

"Ok, this may sound an odd request, but do you have a shoe?" At this point, I am still laughing hysterically.

The woman then procedes to laugh along with me. I quickly told her it was NOT mine.
"I've heard of people losing their wallets, their minds, but shoe?"

Then she further explains how they searched for the shoeless lady, but couldn't find her. Then she said something about it being a pretty large womans shoe. I laughed along with her, although secretly cursing my own big feet.

I brought the shoe back to my mother, however, make no mistake, I am not Prince Charming.
