Socks. There I said it. That’s the first step in recovery,
right? Admitting you have a problem. Well, I have a problem with socks. I
absolutely love them. Not old socks... but new, soft, cushiony, leave fresh lint
on your toes, socks. However, I’ve noticed recently that maybe my attraction
with socks is not normal?
For starters, I plan my outfits around shoes that allow me to
wear socks. I literally stand in front of my closet and decide which outfit I
can throw together that allows me to wear some type of closed toed shoe so that
I can wear my socks with that outfit. Thank goodness I love my riding boots
because they are worn 6 out of 7 days of the week…and on that lone day that I
don’t wear them I wear my tennis shoes…crisis averted!
This isn’t an issue during the winter months,
but it quickly becomes a problem seeing as we live in Texas and our summers
feel like Hell on earth….who in their right mind would wear socks during that
type of heat? The answer is me. If it were socially acceptable to wear socks
with sandals, this girl would do it. However, it’s not and NEVER, I repeat
NEVER, will be (if you wear socks with your sandals, I beg of you to STOP right
now and never do it again...dad if you're reading this, that's for you). The issue has gotten so bad that I generally
have a pair of socks with me for those instances when I am forced to wear an
open toed shoe or some type of sandal. I have a pair in my right hand drawer in
my library, I have a pair in my glove compartment of my car, and if I for some
reason decide to carry a bag you can bet there will be a pair in there. I can’t
help it, I don’t like to be without socks.
Oh, one last thing…your socks are not safe around
me. Yes, I have been known to take socks. I will of course ask your permission,
so it’s really not stealing…just more like long time borrowing. I am certain
that I have a pair (or two) of Shealee, Tyler Jessica and Amanda’s socks. They
are the good kind too. The pair I stole borrowed from Shealee are bright
green Nike ones…so soft and I love them. Ok, I’m finished. Just thought I’d
share my strange addiction with you. Don’t judge.
This may or may not be how I look when I find a super comfy new pair of socks in the back of my drawer.
