This may be goofiest post I have ever done but usually around this time of year I add another ring around my tree. I also reveal how totally goofy (or nuts depending on your point of view) I am. Over last few years, you have learned about my shot glass collection, My bobblehead collection, my causal T-shirt collection, how I love the comic strip Doonesbury and have collected a ton of its books over the years. I have added to all those strange collections over since I have done those blogs. Last year you got a glimpse of my bookcases.
This last year I got a new deal going and it is socks. By no means I am a fashion plate, heck I don't even know how to spell the word but this past year (no doubt aided by my fashion plate 20-year-old son), I have gotten into socks. Before I would try to buy socks as cheaply as I could - you know six pairs for five bucks but in the last year I started buying more and more fashionable socks:
 |
| The first: My son bought this simple pair of socks to up my game |
 |
| Got to have The Dead |
 |
| Franklin is coolest Peanuts character |
 |
| Go Bears |
 |
| Freebies from the Oakland A's |
 |
| When the Triple-A Fresno Grizzlies play at home on Tuesdays, they change their name to the Fresno Tacos for Taco Tuesday |
 |
| Sloth socks are so cool |
 |
| The newest to the collection-A friend was over there and brought them back for me |
Those socks are cool! I love goofy stuff as well and I like the sloth ones!
ReplyDeleteI love it! My feet are so big, I can't have cool socks like these.
ReplyDeleteI love funky socks!
ReplyDeleteI love fun socks like these. It makes me so happy to put them on in the morning. You have an awesome collection!

Socks are the bane of my life. Have tried so many strategies to avoid odd socks over the years and it never works. Love your sloth ones though! #BlogCrush
ReplyDeleteGreat variety of socks there Patrick! Thanks for linking up with us at #BloggersPitStop and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteThis is an impressive sock collection. I think socks are fab because you CAN have fun with them and, if you wear trousers, you can have some fun socks underneath without anybody needing to know! Hehe. #blogcrush
ReplyDeleteWow, those are some pretty original socks. I could wear the Snoopy ones. The others, maybe not...Anyway, thank you for joining The Really Crafty Link Party, and have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteSo fun! My hubby has a couple pairs of funky socks and loves them. I see more and more unique socks on men at church than ever before. Thanks for sharing with SYC.

I love a cool pair of socks - those sloth ones made me smile! My husband gets a fun pair every so often from our daughter - his latest are covered in monkey heads (hmmmm). Thanks so much for sharing your post with us on #MLSTL - I've shared it on my social media.
ReplyDeleteI've tried to talk my husband into a little more fashionable attire and he gave it a shot, but we finally admitted he just can't do it, even if he's spent hard earned money on "cute" stuff. LOL Good for you! I like your choices.

ps. Maybe I should send you the stuff he bought and still has tags on it... ha!
DeleteI would take it-LOL. I am almost 50 and starting to learn how to dress. I am not good at it but I try.
DeleteGreat looking socks. My sock drawer is so basic black blue and tan. lol
ReplyDeleteWhat a great selection of socks Patrick! I love it when men wear suits and then crazy socks! Thanks for sharing and linking up with is at Midlife Share the Love Party #MSTL
ReplyDeleteWhat a collection!! And they all look very well laundered!!
ReplyDeleteGreat collection. When I worked as a nurse, socks were the only item we could wear that wasn't a standard uniform. So, I always wore bright, fun socks. Kids and adults both seemed to really like them.
ReplyDeleteYes! You know I love a good sock game! And you definitely need Grateful Dead socks! I am also loving the sloth socks. I have a huge addiction to socks and tights as you know. So now I will think of you when I see crazy socks!
