My tootsies are nekkie as well BUT I do have dark blue slippers on. They have tiny rhinestones at the toe.

Even the slippers are blinged.

More socks and Crocs. What can I say, my poor ole feet love Crocs even if I despise them.

Hello Kitty Footies!!!!

I have light brown and white slipper socks on. They will stay on my tootsies throughout the evening and into the bed, on the clean sheets and everything.

It's going to be 30 degrees here.

It's an anti-style statement

To be fair, I wouldn't be seen dead outside the house with them on.

I haven't been in a cute sock mood lately--
Just been wearing work socks and/or nekkid.

I'll be okay-- I think.

What are peds? Peds is a brand name for what is called a footlet. I don't know who would call them that or even why. It makes no sense. Footlet. Now that angers me a bit. I guess I'm not very peaceable myself. But seriously what is a footlet? Why would someone name something that. A socklet perhaps, but a footlet?

The little hard plastic things on the end of shoelaces are called aglets (sometimes spelled aiglets).

What?

What do you expect when you come at me with useless trivia?

It's on like Donkey Kong!

Also, speaking of DK, the music that plays during the first stage in Donkey Kong Country, in the level called "Jungle Hijinx", is actually three demo tracks pieced together.

Maybe it's called a footlet cuz it LETS the FOOT do something for which I do not know?

You know, the definition of footlet is: 'a low sock for women covering either the whole foot below the ankle or only the toes, worn for protection or warmth'. So, that means all socks that rest beneath the ankle are footlets.

Hmmm....

I love useless trivia. Although I don't believe any trivia is useless. Knowledge is power. Someday knowing what they call the plastic things on the end of shoelaces could save your life or the life of someone you love. And that information regarding the music in Donkey Kong Country...priceless.

How many socks rest beneath the ankle? And look at this:


It might be wearing a sign but in what world is that a sock?

It's a slipper, no? Or as my mother would say, "beddie".

Which is kind of weird (to call a slipper a beddie), because you don't where slippers IN the bed.

She also calls a vaccuum cleaner a sweeper. Which of course makes no sense.

She calls taking the dog out to pee, "watering the dog".

My mother has problems.

Hmmm....

What happens if you have an ankle sock that shrunk in the dryer and now rests below the ankle...is it then transformed from an ankle sock into a footlet?

Also this convo is my first ever introduction to the word "footlet" and already it's annoying me. This sock needs to be renamed, if only for the sake of my sanity...
