Crisis Averted

I don't know if you have this system. But if you don't, I suggest you adopt this immediately. It's the best way to go.

I always have a stash of emergency socks. There is always one pair of new socks, or almost-new socks, that I do not break in or regularly wear.

And yesterday, I needed my emergency socks. As in, all of my other socks have either disappeared or become incredibly, incredibly dirty. Let's not dwell on why. They were just gone. But the thing is, I couldn't find my emergency socks. So I had to wear my pair of almost-too-small ankle socks. But then, miracle of miracles! I found my emergency socks. And my feet were kept clean.

The End.
