Socks

[cjsmith]

At the drugstore yesterday I saw a package of boys' socks. These weren't for very young children; they were "size 6 - 8 1/2" according to the package. (There were no analogous socks for girls. I guess girls go directly from toddler to size 9-11. God knows they couldn't wear the boys' socks. Those aren't pink.)

I love my new socks. This is the first time in decades I've had socks that fit. The feeling of NOT having a big wad of stuff bunched up behind my ankle is heavenly.

There are girls socks in a variety of sizes.

We just bought three packs of assorted colors, mostly on the pink and white end of the spectrum, but there was one dark gray pair. Jocelyn complained bitterly about the existance of those gray socks and won't even touch them.

Where did she GET it? Not from me!!!

Yeah, this store was just missing them, I guess.

Girliness must skip generations! My mom despairs of me because I won't pretty up.
