You Stole my Shoes! (update)

[BookstoreEscapee]

So I would like to make a copy of your lovely post so I can read it off to the Wicked Witch of Shoes.

Would that make her the Wicked Witch of Nine West™?

I would've given a really detailed description if my shoes were "stolen". I agree with you on this one Peppergirl.

Count me in agreement as well. I can give painfully detailed descriptions of most of my shoes, and most of my friends and family agree that I have enough shoes for 5 people or more.

Unless they actually were Louboutains or some other type of overpriced beautiful shoe, why would anyone steal a pair of icky used shoes?

Well...

There's actually quite a thriving business on eBay in used Women's shoes...
And I'm not talking about other women trying to be frugal.

Good gosh! What were they, Manolos? Jimmy Choo's?

I guess she never smiled at the housekeeper . . .

When I was much much much younger (4 yrs old) my family moved from Texas to California. (we drove one of the cars)
At one hotel we stayed in along the way I left my Snoopy in the bed.

Apparently the housekeeper immediatly went to the desk to try and catch us. We were long gone.
The hotel contacted the Credit Card Company and asked them about a new/ forwarding address . . .but of course they wouldn't give it out.
The next night we arrived at the next hotel and horror of horror's I couldn't find Snoopy. Mom called the last hotel.
The hotel notified the housekeeper. She packaged him up in a shoe box with a mini pillow and sheets like it was a bed. And Snoopy was mailed to meet me in California.
Apparently I smiled at her in the hall, and said something to my Mom about her having it tough having to make all those beds.

I firmly believe we still have houskeepers like that in this day and age.

If she actually left the shoes behind, and isn't just trolling for money.

I too have had lost my snoopy by leaving her behind in bed.

The housekeeper felt so bad when she saw me cry she went back and dug around until she found her.

I got my lovely snoopy all back freshly washed.

And yes.. I lost my snoopy more than once over the years. I've gotten so much better too. (yes, she sleeps with me, between my hubs and I).

And it goes to show that being kind and showing thought about others and their jobs is a very very powerful magic

UPDATE!

I have an update! Hurray!

Well, once I pawned the Wicked Witch of Nine West (haha, I saw that!) off onto S, things got really quiet. For nearly a week now it has been very quiet, just the normal complaints of "I left <toothbrush/showercap/shavingcream> at home, do you have any?" kind. I.E. The Good Kind.

So I ask S about it and this is how it unfolds.

S: Well, I called the number for their house and talked to the husband.
Me: Was he a jerk too?
S: Actually, no!
Me: What?
S: It would seem he didn't even know his wife was being a terror.
Me: How could he not?!
S: I guess she'd been calling us on her cell phone. But he was real nice and sweet and really understanding. Said he would talk to his wife about it. Has she called again?
Me: No, but I still hope she does because I expect an apology.

S laughed and we got on with life. Still no word from the Wicked Witch of Nine West but whatever. I don't care about her sorry arse anymore anyways.

That is so sweet! Just shows that what goes around comes around. You were kind to the housekeeper and she returned that kindness. Now, if only the rest of the human race would take that to heart...

I lost my teddy bear, Mr Snuggles. Mom refused to call the hotel for it, too.

Wow, your mom is mean! Even my mother would have called for my teddy bear (my obsession).

This is why I always get phone numbers and addresses of all my guests; in case they leave something in the room I can contact them and send to the address on file.

I admit, I'm 25 and if I'd left Ha-hin anywhere (yes, I still drag his 25 years old raggedy ass around) I'd have mom call the previous hotel...

I'd be too busy having a panic attack.

I'm such a giant baby.

[Evil Queen]

So? I'm 21 and still have my first teddy bear ever; Mr. Brown and I still sleep with him. Even my SO doesn't mind because he likes my other teddy bear; Charlie.

We're both suckers for teddy bears.

I've had him since I was born... a small perfect boobs and chin holder. Ratty, dry, you can see the canvas around his nose.

I luv that thing sooooo much.
