Readers,
Please recall the recent saga of my tennis shoe, lost to a fox's clutches (just like this one) some 4 weeks ago:
New news: Just a few nights ago, like a swallow to Capistrano, behold: the shoe has returned!
ICYMI: A sly fox (is there any other kind) took one of my tennis shoes off our deck. Stolen. Apparently, foxes with an Imelda Marcos streak do that.
Here's the new mystery: last weekend, sometime between 11pm and 7am last Saturday/Sunday morning, the missing sneaker was returned! Yes, the fox had been clever enough to take one tasty, cushion-y shoe off the deck, which has a family's worth of sandals, flip-flops and sneakers lined up like the Bergdorf's shoe sale. But he just couldn't have been clever enough to open our screen door and place the missing shoe inside the house, neatly lined up with the other shoes which are now taken in every night.
Question: Friends and neighbors, devoted readers, shoe-fetishists: who is the good samaritan? It doesn't matter that one is sun-bleached, likely traumatized from its time in a Fox's mouth and on the dunes, while the other is stinky and Har-Tru-encrusted. I would like to thank you properly for being the only person in the country who can unite the left and the right.
The LZ Sunday Paper is united in its effort to bring you the most important news of the week, about and by women in business, media, digital, politics, arts, sports and pop culture.
Please send me your confession -- did you take my shoe? Did you return it? Do you know who did? Can I offer a reward for something that is already found and returned? You can use the tip-line here. And while you're at it send me interesting things to include in a future edition. Follow me on Twitter to get a daily fix.
I am on Insta @LZSundayPaper.

It's sunny, dry and slightly chilly-- there are no more August weekends left. Enjoy what's left of this one.
