Was it raining? Did you get a window replaced lately?

Did you have you're A/C running? If you did, it's most likely that the A/C drain tube is clogged and the water dripping by your foot is the condensation from the evaporator core.

I'm not sure... but here's a free bump...

My suggestion: attach a water bottle to it for a fresh source of distilled water.

To clear the drain tube, you'll need to get under the car and find the drain opening (it should be on the firewall near the transfer case), then if you have Pipe cleaners (art supply store) stick one end up into the drain tube and move it back and forth a few times. This should dislodge any debris that's in the tube.
