I bought some new socks and I just wanted to admire them, all new and in pairs, before my children "borrow" them. They have no qualms about stealing my new socks and they like to wear odd socks too. The dog is just as bad, he likes to carry socks in his mouth and can fit three in a once. When they leave home I'm going to buy a gazillion pairs of socks and they will be all mine!In the words of Good Charlotte "Get your feet off my socks"!!!!
