Writing socks? What a stupid idea. I have one pair of special socks – my Christmas socks. They’re about 20 years old and I’ve worn them about 20 times. I used to wear them thinking people would admire me for my wondrous Christmas spirit, my joie de vivre, my delightful sense of humor. In 20-plus years, nobody ever noticed my colorful socks. Turns out, Christmas socks, like writing socks, are a stupid idea. I’m going to get rid of them…maybe next spring.
For a short time I did have a writing hat – stubbornly held on to it, until it started to smell bad, and it never did help my writing. Another stupid idea.
I once had a boss who told me I was stubborn. Apparently she thought she had hired a “yes man.” I advocated for good ideas, usually my own, and held on to them until proven wrong, which even now rarely happens.
Stubborn? What does it really mean? I am not unreasonable, obstinate, inflexible or immovable, but when I’m right…I’m Right.
To label me stubborn is quite simply stubbornness in itself. Be reasonable for cryin’ out loud.
In my opinion, the only time socks are ever noticed is if they smell bad 🙂

I have Christmas, Halloween, Easter, Fourth of July, and a couple of other special socks. You are right – nobody notices them unless you point them out! Just taking up space so gonna sell them on the next yard sale coming up this Fall.

I have a pair of Christmas socks too. They’re pink, old and worn out.
When I wear them, I make people notice because I point them out.
Darn, I love them and I do things like that in the name of love.
Plus I love to see how people react whem I do that.
It’s a good laugh.
