A little bit of history

The resting place of my shoe is the end result of a drunken night (about a year ago) of shoe toss (drunk game we play where you let the shoe sit on your foot loosely and proceed to kick it as far as possible), and thinking we could clear the overpass from the street... my shoe hit the side first and the second attempt I decided to add more loft... yeah...

If anyone wants to know what happened to the other shoe it may or may not be still on top of the Weston's bakery roof. I'm sure it's gone by now, the workers usually take their smoke breaks on the roof.

Actively looking now.

So now that I'm starting my photo blog about my shoe, this is the third pic that I took just recently. The plan is to actually take nice digital SLR photos of it during each season or under different weather and maybe frame it and put it up. Taken from the same angle... blah blah blah. Now I'm just brainstorming ahead of myself but who knows what this will turn into. If anyone passes underneath my shoe take a pic, send it to me by email, I'll post it up here. I can't keep an eye on it all the time! ;)

I wonder....

I was in the Bay the other day shopping for jeans that I need for work (badly) and I decided to wonder whether or not my shoe was still there. Sure enough it looked like it moved a bit, maybe to get a bit more sun per side who knows.

Ideas

So I got this brilliant thought the other day as I passed under the Bay-Eaton Centre skywalk on my way home on the TTC that I would create this blog about my shoe. Why would anyone want to make a blog about a shoe that they own? Well the sole reason I did it, is because my shoe is not in my personal possession anymore. Where is it you ask? On top of the skywalk... and so begins the ongoing photo journal of my lonely shoe. (I say lonely because I don't think another shoe will join it in the near future)
