Once again, I chose to take part in Sioban’s Thursday Threads Challenge. Just like last week, this piece is to be more than 100 words, less than 250 words and contain a prompt from the previous week’s winner.
The prompt for this challenge is “You look great, and yeah, you’re worth a million bucks.” And, I dare say many of you know where this will take me.
:: The Outfit
“Are you going out dressed like that?”
“Excuse me?”
“Do you see what you’re wearing?”
“You know I see what I am wearing.”
“Didn’t you hear me mumble as you reached for the sandals?”
“You live in my head. Of course I heard you mumble. And, I do my best to ignore your mumblings.”
“Why do you insist on embarrassing me like this?”
“Are you serious? Folks don’t even know you exist. You are a figment of my imagination.”
“I am not a figment. I am just as much you as you are.”
“You are not.”
“Am, too.”
“Are not.”
“Are not.”
“Are too – hey! Wait a minute.”
“Ha! Gotcha. Could a figment of your imagination getcha like that?”
“Whatever. I’m the basis of this being – you just like poking your non-existent nose where it doesn’t belong.”
“Fine. But, you’re not going out in public dressed like that, are you?”
“Would you lay off my attire? I look fine!”
“Socks and sandals do not go together. I repeat; socks and sandals do not go together.”
“Socks and sandals go together like Ben & Jerry ice cream and a large spoon.”
“Figures you’d bring up ice cream.”
“Shoot, the socks and sandals look is way better than the low riding or baggy-ass jeans look. I rock this look! I look like money!”
“You’re right. You look great. And yeah, you’re worth a million bucks. Not.”
“I heard that!”
You are such a dork.
“I heard that, too!”
.|.
Had to laugh at the socks and sandals do not go together … something I would say to myself and wear them anyway.
Blessings – Maxi
I wear my socks and sandals proudly, Maxi. Nothing beats comfort. (Thanks for visiting. Glad you laughed!)
I bet you could totally rock socks and sandals. Just out of curiosity, do the socks have to match the sandals?
White socks are best, Nancy. (or worst, as it were.) And I do rock the look. Just ask me!
Do you find the voice in your head uses a lot of ice cream examples and analogies in an effort to relate to and thereby influence you?
Yes! Yes I do! Are my voices talking to you, too? Run, GG. RUN! (And take a spoon!)
Forget the socks and sandals, let’s just go for ice cream.
You’re on! Separate bowls, please.
