Overheard at the Snow’s house: “You look like a five year-old”

Is it possible to have an identity complex a year before turning 30? After changing my hair two weeks ago, I decided to wear high socks with shorts today (I need new pants, plus the weather is nice, okay?). Excited about my throw back to ’90s sock fashion, I asked Lindsey what she thought. “You look like a five year-old,” she proclaimed. Maybe so, but I’m tired of anklet socks. Besides, it’s kind of fun to be different, and who do I need to impress? (I’m married.)

“…and who do I need to impress? (I’m married.)”

I agree with Jackie (see 50% divorce rate). Plus, you don’t want to look like a schaeff. Just rock the Adidas’ without socks and save yourself from any future marital discord.

He forgot to mention that he stole those socks out of my drawer. So, not only does he look like a 5 year old but he’s stretching my socks out!

@Lindsey: I can’t help that my sock drawer is in style and you’re isn’t, babe. :)

I personally really like high socks and think they look good, especially if you have good calves, which Snows do. :)
I wish people thought they were in style still . . .

Uhh, those length of socks are the only ones I’ve really worn in the past decade. Guess I’m behind the times? Though, given the ample supply at retail locations, methinks I’m in good company.
