Yeah. I have a LOT of boxes...and i've started putting the shoes in the boxes, and i've already filled up one LARGE box and i still have a lot left to pack.
I also think that I'm going to save out some of the ones that i don't wear a whole lot and donate them later. i know that shoes aren't something that people are supposed to buy at thrift stores...but you know? some people do. so...we'll see. it's only 5 pairs that i'm pulling out. not that that helps a lot. ;)
i found cool stuff with every move, it was kinda fun that way!
and i think my roommate is the queen of shoes (by my best estimates, she's between 70-82 pairs now!), but you might be closing in! battle battle!
i started to become a shoe whore as well, but then i made myself a promise to not buy new shoes unless i could get rid of a pair or squeeze them into the designated shoe area of my closet. so far, so good... a mere 22 pairs... and yes, flip flops don't count!
i took pictures of a lot of my shoes at one point - and in my picture file there are 22 photos (and none of them flip-flops). I know that since then I have acquired at LEAST 5 pairs of shoes, and this doesn't even include the 4 that I found in my closet. There may be more. I also have the boxes for 18 pairs of shoes.
wait - i just looked at the file information for the pictures, and this is all from november, which means that the chances of me having bought more shoes since then is greatly increased. I'm guessing that I have...at least 40 pairs. I really should count at some point. But I am getting rid of a good stack of old/ugly shoes. So maybe the guess will be less than previously thought.

and no, you aren't the only person who finds nifty things when they pack up to move that they had forgotten about previously.
