Socks for Social Distancing, Day 30
I failed to make sure I had appropriate holiday socks for today so instead I wore something as unrelated to Easter, Passover, or what have you as I could find. And that, kids, is how Stormtroopers became my new symbol of spring. If you’re of a culture celebrating something today, I hope it was amazing. … Continue reading Socks for Social Distancing, Day 30
Infinity Socks: Endgame
The term has become inexplicably popular over the last week, but I can think of no better word to describe this new phase of our little sock project than "endgame". Today begins an seemingly unending series of holiday socks to round out was has been an outstanding year, hand selected by my second son, who … Continue reading Infinity Socks: Endgame
A Monday With Unusual Chemistry
Yes, of course I have a pair of socks proudly emblazoned with the Periodic Table of Elements. These were actually a gift from my sister-in-law, whose taste in picking out the appropriate socks for me is apparently spot-on. Sadly, due to a somewhat common personality condition know as "being a dumbass" (that's the clinical term) … Continue reading A Monday With Unusual Chemistry
I Am The Wolf (Of Socks)
The lone wolf prowls the increasigly quiet blogger-sphere at night, hunting the elusive sock poster. Little did he know that he was what he sought, alive only as a pair of socks, seeking prey upon a nerdy dude's ankle in vain. It was a dark, cold night, and a lonely, howling moon. And the nerdly … Continue reading I Am The Wolf (Of Socks)
Vote Xenomorph
When I said yesterday that there would be one notable exception to the parade of puppy socks proudly portrayed on my paws this week, I'm guessing that most of you might have figured that our one difference would likely pop up today. It is, after all, a pretty significant day, at least here in the United … Continue reading Vote Xenomorph
The Annual Magic: The Gathering Punishing
I don't think I've ever mentioned it before, but I'm a big fan of playing Magic: The Gathering. You know, that card game all the nerds like. Oh, don't look so surprised. I'm a huge nerd. Pretty sure I've made that abundantly clear already. Of course, then, I like M:TG, and as a card-carrying nerd, … Continue reading The Annual Magic: The Gathering Punishing
A Dark Night For The Dark Knight
Sitting out on the patio a little later than usual tonight, but given that today's socks are in honor of everyone's favorite Dark Knight, it seemed to make sense*. The twist is that's not just a reference to Batman, the character. I mean, sure, who doesn't love the Caped Crusader and his wacky crime-fighting, but … Continue reading A Dark Night For The Dark Knight
Constellations And Canine Considerations
The Puddinette and I sat out on the patio last night when it became inexplicably temperate for one glorious night, giving us a brief moment of respite from this year's July Hellscape. Being the nerds we are, of course, we broke out a sky view app on my phone, which identified for us all the … Continue reading Constellations And Canine Considerations
A Rocket-based Soapbox
I'm pretty sure I'm keeping at least one pair of my NASA socks. Why would I, you ask, when I have SO many others to choose from? Because, when I was a kid, NASA meant a LOT to me. In fact, from the time my parents were kids to my own childhood, NASA represented the … Continue reading A Rocket-based Soapbox
