the adventures of shockity ep13 Shoelace Sling

I scrambled out of the warm fleece socks and charged straight at the wooden shoe rack by the door! A pair of high-top canvas sneakers was sitting right beside a dropped metal shoehorn. Without pausing to brake—whoa, heehee!—I hurled my round tummy against a dangling white shoelace aglet. The woven lace snapped taut like a bowstring, flinging a tiny plastic keychain tag trapped in the eyelet across the mat with a sharp clatter! The recoil bounced my plush bottom backward, wedging me snug between the rubber sneaker toe and a smooth wooden slat.
