I nearly had an opportunity to trot out the silken formal gear this evening, but alas, no dice. One of these days, I swear.Believe it or not, I had no black socks. I went out to get some, but I got sucker-punched:
I've done a pretty damn good job of avoiding the skull and bones thing these last few years. But really, don't you think these hose would be juts the right punch on a midnight blue tux?Maybe my will was broken by spending a sunny afternoon with the children in a place like this:
by the sea, 
with cannon, 
and drippy granite tunnels.'Cept we visited this place after I bought the socks. Dammit!
I guess I'l just have to blame it on the influence of too much Spongebob Squarepants.
