OCD

I think maybe I’m OCD. It concerns my socks. I have this thing about only having one of each pair, so no two pairs of socks are the same. You see it helps pair them up after the wash. Sensible.

Before my current system, I bought batches of similar socks. I used to thread little bits of coloured wool in the top to differentiate them by age. People thought me strange. Now though, every pair is different.

My wife recently gave me port and starboard socks, one red and one green... but for some reason she bought me two pairs.
