Sock it to me
I have a pile of socks in purgatory (limbo? I can’t keep the not-heaven-and-not-hell states straight). These are the ones that have come out of the wash missing their mates.
It’s a sad little pile, with a little bit of dust covering the top-most sock. (Hey, cleaning makes my allergies act up. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.) I keep promising myself that I will toss them out, so they don’t sit on top of my dresser, staring forlornly at me with their little sock eyes… uh, anyway. But I know that once I do, their mates will show up. However, I also know that I will then put those socks into limbo (purgatory?), because I will not remember which ones it was I just threw away.
Maybe I need a sock database. Or perhaps I should start a sock-sharing service online… Nah. That would be too weird. Wouldn’t it?
