You guys I just had a moment where I think I might have temporarily lost my mind.

I visited a friend recently and while I was there I managed to lose a sock. I said to her, “It’s a squid attacking a ship!” and she said “You are weird, but if I find it I’ll mail it back to you.” And she did! I got the sock today, so I went hunting for its mate…

And then I just…kept finding this sock. 

I found this sock FOUR TIMES. It KEPT APPEARING. I seriously thought I was having the kind of nervous breakdown you only read about in midcentury novels. There was no way I could have five copies of this sock. 

And then I went, “Didn’t I turn one of these into an armwarmer for wearing while running” so I checked my workout shelf and SURE ENOUGH, I FOUND A SIXTH SOCK. 

I own THREE PAIRS of this sock. THREE. 

I mean, it’s a nice sock (you can acquire a set for yourself from @sockdreams) so I can see why. And two of the pairs eventually wore out, because I’m tough on socks. But for the love of God it’s like I booby trapped my own home with socks.
