Do you sleep in your sockies?

After spending countless hours perusing the many photos at Sock Dreams I’m uncertain as to whether or not I can remember ever seeing anything sexier than this or this or this or possibly even this.

Now I don’t know if I have a fetish or I’m just jealous. Girls have all of the fun…dammit.

I rarely wear matching socks, unless by randomly reaching into the sock pile I pull out two of the same (never white, unless they’re like this, in which case they’re top dawg), but in reality that never happens (okay once*).

No, but if anyone out there was looking to win my undying affection, they’d find the perfect pair of socks, not too femmy (but a bit, mind you), and send them to me on St. Valentine’s Eve, wrapped around a bottle of Bully Hill and Jelly Bellies.

i don’t like socks much… this is perhaps because i live in a climate that doesn’t really promote socks as much as it does high heels and flip-flops. so i guess it’s too bad you don’t have a shoe fetish. i did, on the up side, find YOU a pair of socks to show you that boys can have some fun, too. i think i’ll purchase them soon and send them to you along with a burnt cd of my choice. and, if you appreciate the gift, maybe you could return the favor by finding me a pretty (and moderately thick) ribbon to tie around my hair.

I slept in my toesocks last night. They have pastel pink and purple stripes with glittery bits. So soft and warm.

I’ve just seen that one of ur fave books in Junk. Heehee I’ve read that, presuming you mean the one by Melvin Burgess. Except you might mean a different one so I’ll shush now.
I sleep in stripey long sox.
Go me.

yes long socks and a tshirt is extremely sexy but the socks should be limited to an inch or two above the knee. anyway, i liked socks two and four. i can live w/out the spikes on three and for some reason the first pair scare me even more.

weekends suck what with few other people updating their blogs. i end up commenting on this?

I know the feeling, hardly anyone updating their blogs. I’m so bored and filling up nathans blog with silly comments. Think I will have to go out tonight afterall. Today I’m wearing my rainbow over the knee toe socks cos its cold outside.

wow…perhaps the largest response I’ve ever received…so it looks like I’ll be getting some fun presents, maybe V-Day won’t be so all alonely after all – and I think I can muster a nice thick ribbon for decorating hairs, for sure…

and as for Junk, Seffy, I’m referring to the one by William S. Burroughs…I’ve read far too few books, actually…my attention span just isn’t there.

And Olivia – wow, that’s quite the picture…you know “compositionally” and all…

Why was I never aware of how amazing simple pictures of cloth and foot can be? I think a magazine featuring such images might be able to run things like Playboy or Jugs (is Jugs a real magazine?) out of business…

And Chad, oh Chad, stop the madness…it’s time that we stop seeing socks as merely toe to ankle covers and start realizing our children’s true potential.

I get cc’d in on all the emails that are sent through Sock Dreams. Almost every day there are at least 2 people (men and women) who say that they never knew socks could be so sexy. Most say their addiction started through the website. Mine did.
