Socks

[€uroMeinke]

Socks are my clothing nemisis. I have way too many, mostly black and most of the ones that aren't black are still dark. When I get up in the morning to dress it's still dark outside and my eyes haven't fully adjusted so I sometimes end up wearing socks that don't match the rest of what I am wearing. I have tried to rememdy this by creating different zones in my sock drawer - but with so many, it's still only a matter of time.

The other dilema comes at laundry time when trying to match pairs - it takes forever and I always hang on to the loan sock in anticipation of it's mates return.

Also few of my socks are "fun" - I want more fun socks

Is a loan sock anything like a loan shark?

Amen brother!

My problem is, ohhh how can I put this delicately... MY WIFE.

If while doing laundry she finds a sock that does not pass muster, it has a hole, it's too worn, whatever, it gets tossed. Just that one sock. So now our sock sorting bin has grown out of control with what I am sure are orphaned socks. Perhaps I should catalog them all and put them up on craigslist in case anyone else has a similar problem and we can make a match.
