Have you ever went out for a few hours and realized half way through that there is something wrong, or that something feels odd?
So I put on my shoes and went to the laundry mat, came home and then I took my dog for a walk down a well traveled road and then a side road... Half way home on my walk I happened to look down and I started bursting out in laughter.
OMG!! Too funny. Yes it has happened to me, not that specific thing, but where something didn't feel right, something was off, whatever! You are too funny Quert!!
Location: Finally made it to Florida and lovin' every minute!

Good one, Quert! I did that once - not only were my shoes different colors, but the heel height was different. Took me a whole morning to figure it out!
On Sunday, my PA got a text and he showed it to me (we were at work).
His family was driving to church when his teenage daughter realized she had no pants on.
They had to stop at Target near the church to buy pants.
Um, how sleepy were mom and the other kids that everyone piled into the car and were driving before someone realized the girl had no pants on?!
Yes, different shoes or in one case in the winter where I'd throw a pair in a bag to carry to work - 2 different shoes and both for the right foot. Other times, different colored socks - black & blue can cause problems. Like, I wore a black knee length skirt and navy tights - didn't notice til I noticed people looking at my legs funny. Nothing to do but laugh.

Why?
LOL.. well, at least you realized it, unlike the situation I found myself into one time back in the early 1990s. I mentioned this before, but I'll go ahead and post it again for those who haven't read it.
Back then I worked for a logistics company, which is now UPS Logistics, and I did a demonstration of a new computer system we were going to implement, and there were many of the company's executives, and branch managers present. I finished the demonstration, they turned the lights back on and I asked if anyone had any questions. The company's CFO was the first to ask, "Can you tell us why your fly is open?"...
I used to stay away a week at a time here in the UK.
I'd be travelling around hospitals and one morning I was chatting away to some docs in a big teaching hospital in Leeds, Yorkshire, when I looked down and went 'Oh!'
They all looked at me and wondered why I'd said it, and lo and behold I had mismatching black brogue shoes on!
Mind you, years earlier I arrived in good time for an interview dressed up in my best suit and suddenly realised that I still had my trainers on, that I used for driving!
I hurtled out of reception and came back with the correct shoes on but breathing very heavily from the run back to the car.
The receptionist thought I'd gone mad- but I got the job!
Good laugh, Quert! They both still felt good, right? I once went to work wearing one black shoe and one navy blue.

OMG! Very embarrassing when you're the speaker! A good laugh for everyone but you!
