Growing up, most of us had a lot of fun sock routines, most of which involved either being in a messy room with a torn sock and being grounded for the next week. Now we’ve outgrown those socks and switched to the more fancy and fun kinds. We even have a new kind of sock, which quite literally don’t show.
Here’s a list of those nostalgic sock moments (some of which we never out grew)
Sock skating Get set …. Weeeeeeeee…. Crash. A race to the finish line in a slippery pair of school socks and then always crashing. “I learn from my mistakes, socks do not provide good enough resistance, I will not engage in sock skating again” -Said nobody ever.
Sock Puppets The best sock puppets are made from the most worn out socks. They are stretchy and loose and they count as comfort clothing or more like puppet companions on the not so happy days. They are better when they are made out of your sibling’s new pair of socks *the evil smile*
Sock it all up Those were the days when socks were not only for the feet, they were for the face, hands even for your toys when they were cold. Well looks like we haven’t out grown these yet, we even have a name for those now– arm sleeves, knee socks?
Christmas stockings This is the favourite memory of them all, the days when you still believed in Santa Claus and hung your socks next to the Christmas tree. Aah what joy to find stockings filled with gifts on the cold Christmas mornings.
Sunday longer than Monday socks This was that annoying time when one of your socks have lost its elasticity and are going to fall lose like a grumpy cat while the other stands tall like a proud mountain of perfectly fitting socks. And they are both pretty much rendered useless because socks have got to be two of a kind.
The missing sock Like in the book “A place called here” we will one day solve the mystery of the missing socks and there will lie a pile of all those nostalgic sock memories that we will never outgrow. Not even the new fancy ‘no show socks’can replace them.
