I was at school today. I was walking down the staires. There was a a shiny spot on the floor. Maybe a meal piece or something. I was in a hurry I didn't stop to see it. When I was running, i think my shoe laces touched that shiny thing.

1) If that shiny thing was liquid mercury, would it have absorbed into my shoe ? Should I throw out my shoes?

2) the bottom of my shoes touched my jeans, should i throw away my jeans (would the mercury from my shoes transfer to my jeans?

I really don't want to throw anything away cuz i'm not rich and i don't like to waste things.
