Can't Wear Flip Flops to School

There's a rule at my school that students aren't allowed to wear flip flops - or any shoe without a back. Carlie came to school one day wearing flip flops. I probably wouldn't have noticed but some of the other kids made a big deal out of it. Anyway, she had to call home to get a new pair of shoes or sandals with a back. When her step-mom came she ended up checking her out of school. She came back an hour later wearing entirely different clothes.

Carlie: Sorry to be so long but my step-mom couldn't find my other pair of shoes so we had to go buy some. But theses ones (showing me her new shoes) didn't match my other outfit so we had to buy a new shirt and skirt that matched.
