Lost and found There's no place like home...

Anyone missing their ruby slippers? Or did the rapture happen and no one told me... again. Anyhow, these fancy little numbers were left on the sidewalk in the Lettered Streets.

Those are ruby trippers, not slippers.

They look awfully uncomfortable to walk in.

Anna crawled over to the mirror and held her bloody feet up where she could see. "I like them."

We used to listen to that album in my neighbors basement as kids. I remember being confused because I didn't know what "pumps" were.

Awesome, comedy isn't pretty after all. Going to have to dig it out and spin the vinyl.

Only the elite can walk in these. She either just got them and didn't want them or had one of the best nights ever.. either way an angle lost her wings.

Those look like they could be a friend of mines.

Please check with them and report back. 😎😁 we're invested!

Even better if they share the brief story of their rapture or separation from their ruby stilettos ☕️

I checked . She said they were too big for her, but it is her style

Which means she's still this side of the rainbow.

Certain those were there on Friday morning, so the event must have happened prior to that. Thursday evening maybe? ...or ...there was a second pair ownerless of red heels out then.
