It's the little things...

My mother's on a knitting kick, and made me toeless socks.

I was very surprised, and tried to be polite without letting on that I just did not get it. Toeless socks? But it's my toes that get coldest!

But now, sitting here with my flip-flops and my toeless socks and feeling quite comfy on this moderately chilly morn, I get it.

(Also, surprised that I missed the "surprised" keyword for my icons. That's what I get for organizing when I'm sick.)

The most awful truth in the world; one that proves that God (if he exists) is just the most sadistic bastard with his magnifying glass roasting us like ants is this.

Socks with individual toes, which are the most awesome socks in the world, make your feet cold.

What... the fuck.

They separate your toes. Toes are meant to huddle together for warmth, like baby mice. They are not meant to strike forward into their own individualistic sheaths of yarn!

Toes are socialist commies!

Socialism? In MY anatomy!?

Can I ask a favour? I have a bunch of friends in the US who need lube and stuff, and it's a pain shipping it across the border. If I send you moneyz, can you mail care packages to them? Tell me how much would be a reasonable per-diem charge for your time, too.

[mokie]

Sure! Give me the list o' goodies to get, and the list o' people to send to, and I shall mail away!

I'd say a flat $20 to cover travel should be fine, since I don't drive. I won't charge you for a favor. :)

Awww! Thank you! Add a few goodies to the list for yourself, too!
