Sock’s big adventure

Posted by Nanc

Matty came home to me and the sock, Citrus2. We (yes, the sock and I) met him at the airport and flung, well… made our way to greet him with a warm embrace. (No, you do not need to know more than that. And no, the sock really wasn’t involved in this part. But I’m just lettin’ y’all know that Bonez was more-than-warmly welcomed home. ‘nuf said.)

But like most socks, waiting for planes to arrive, people to deplane, and luggage to arrive makes for a lot of waiting. And waiting. How do you keep a sock from being bored? Ah, the adventures of a young sock.

Do I know you?

Or perhaps you know me?

I’ve joined in on the fun that is Secret Pal 5 and have recently been “introduced” to my pal. It’s a bit spooky to think of a complete stranger lurking about your site for the sole purpose of knowing you better. Sniffing in the garbage articles and investigating into the sultry archives. And you worry: Did she understand the underlying humor of that one post? Will she read too much into that one joke? Will I be penalized (he he) for any of Matty’s posts?!

To satisfy my secret pal’s need for information and, well honestly – because it’s a required part of the whole SP5 rules, the Read More portion of this post is brought to you by the letter “I.”
