I have these black mary-jane flats that I really like to wear. Kim has them too. It snowed last night, and I wanted to wear those shoes this morning. I would have been fine if I had worn socks, but they would have to be black and I hate wearing black socks. I had to wear black socks every day to work for 5 years. I would get up in the morning, wear whatever I wanted, and be whoever I wanted until I had to go to work. My day changed when I had to take of my own clothes and put on a uniform. Take off my own self and put on my work self.
So now I have a new job where I don’t have to say stock phrases and wear stock smiles, and I can wear whatever kinds of socks I want.
I have a whole drawer full of black socks, and I hate them. So today I wore my flats with no socks in the snow. It was stupid. I got snow all in my shoes and my feet were cold all day, but I didn’t wear black socks. And that part was nice.
I think I might be very stubborn.

ReplyDeleteReminds me of my high school English teacher who wouldn't wear long sleeves after he got out of the military because he had to wear them everyday for 20 years. In the snow, he'd have short sleeves under his jacket. Maybe you should give those black socks away...
ReplyDeleteI would gladly take your black socks because well I need them every day. Send them on over.
ReplyDeleteGive your black socks to Tiffany, and get some cute dark gray ones. With flowers on them.
