14 Pairs of Socks

by debt kid on June 29, 2007

I think I am becoming more anal.

When sorting my laundry today (after my first night sleeping in the office), I decided I’m only keeping 14 pairs of white socks (that still seems like a ton!)

  • 3 calf-length
  • 6 mid-ankle
  • 3 ankle
  • 1 thorlo

003

I even thought about numbering each pair, but don’t seem to have a good marker any more.

You might be thinking, DebtKid, you’re crazy! There are only thirteen pairs of white socks in that picture!

Yes, that is correct. But I still have 14 pairs of white socks.
It will come to you.

LOL. Sorry, for some reason I found this very amusing.

I have to ask, though, what colour socks you wear if you’re wearing black or brown shoes. Or are there more sock pictures to come?

(My socks, because of course I am very interesting, all have stripes, cute little animals, or some other thing on them. Takes forever to match them in the laundry).

And yeah…I just realized how infantile I sound. Never again will I drink and then post.

YOU ARE WEARING THE LAST PAIR. Yes.

Do I get a debtpoint for my answer?

You’re gonna need more than 14 pairs. Unless you can do your laundry every 2 weeks.

13 pairs of socks…tisk, tisk, such extravagance. You should e-bay a pair or two as they could fetch handsome sums of money!

OMG, unexpected windfall! Must go invest in an IRA/emergencyfund that accepts debtpoints, all the while avoiding crazy lifestyle inflation. This must not go to my head.

I resolve not to buy a debtcar and two debtparrots! No matter how tempting it is!

Bill = Internet Dad.

I expected more out of you, son. Surely you must be serious all the time. This is all very serious business. Wear a black suit and tie. Stop with all this postmodernist symbolism/fashionable psychopopwhatchama call it. I never wanted you to have one of those arty lit degrees.

Serious business.

Someone needs to censor me. No offense, Bill. All good intentions on your part. You want him to write the Last Word on Desperation & Making It Despite The Odds.
