\"\"My wife is always making fun of me for my holey socks. Please note that I\u2019m referring to holey <\/em>socks (socks with holes in the toes and heels) and not holy <\/em>socks (socks that have some sort of religious significance).<\/p>\n

She asks me why I don\u2019t just break down and buy new socks, and my answer is always the same: Because my holey socks fit my feet so well. They\u2019re like a good pair of blue jeans. If I got new socks, I\u2019d have to spend all kinds of time figuring out which ones are right foot socks and which are left foot socks. And then I\u2019d have to break them in. It\u2019s a whole process with my feet, and I\u2019d rather not go into details.<\/p>\n

Ninety-nine percent of my socks are either plain black or plain white, but I sure wouldn\u2019t mind adding this month\u2019s colorful prize \u2013 watermelon socks<\/a> \u2013 to my collection.<\/p>\n

Yeah, they\u2019re pink and probably a better option for my wife than for me, but I\u2019d give them a whirl around the house. At least until I broke them in and could wear them to more formal outside-the-home occasions.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ll choose one comment at random from all the comments left on the blog this month to receive these foot-warmers. Good luck!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
