shoe per diem, sept 29, 2010 - ms stripey
One day soon I hope I will be able to write a long post again - the terrible back-log and all that, because I really want to write, show and tell. And no, I don't see it as a must and a burden to blog, but sometimes a good film, a decent knit, a bucket of paint or a bed with fresh, crispy sheets seem so much more... appealing somehow - but for now; today was the first day of sock wearing this season.
The morning was awfully cold actually - and the weather forecasts have threatened with frost any day now - so socks it was. And even if I am the proud owner of a mighty fine sock stock it was rather sad to be forced to cover up so completely after all these glorious months of bare-legged life.
But I made sure the socks were perky.
And I had a later lunch that was rather perky too - it totally hit the right hungry Pia spot, the way I felt inclined to sing a wee diddly (like I always did when a kid, when something tasted lovely, I sang a little song while eating) - at one favourite place to unpretentious eat.
And the skies were bluer than blue, so despite there being one of those dreadful days of constant train delays - again, already, on constant repeat - it was a reasonably upbeat day. Which I credit to the stripey socks of course.
It would be impossible to be sad or forlorn or despondent wearing those stripey socks! I think I should look around for some funky socks too. LOL. All of mine, like the rest of me, are plain colours: white, black, navy, brown. Boring.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I need to spice up my wardrobe with new socks! Maybe they also would bring me a lovely lunch out at a good restaurant. And blue skies!
How perky indeed, you know how much I love a stripey sock!
