Requiem for the best socks EVAR.

Somewhere among my things, I have half of the pair of my all-time-favourite socks. They feature a little anime girl with a chainsaw that says "playtime" and I think they are hella cute. I haven't seen that other sock in a long time, but I've held onto its mate, knowing it would turn up one day.

I got these socks (and oh-so-many other oober-cool things) at a marvelous little shop in Dallas called Gifted. It was such a great store and joined the ranks of other sublime gone-but-not-forgotten stores like Modern Toys and Right Brain/Left Brain.



It seems teh puppehs have a taste for my favorite sock, too. See below. Now they'll never be reunited, unless the other one, too, travels the gnarled path of puppy innards.


*le sigh* Bye bye, Daisy Chainsaw.

You should be happy that your dogs have the same taste as you!

Those truly were adorable socks. It is a very sad day for footwear.

Hmmm...if shops that print t-shirts can print on one piece of clothing, why not on socks?

The character in question is "Scary Miss Mary", based on a comic book.

My google-fu has failed to turn up replacement socks. :(

T-shirts, hoodies, and more - but no socks. Sorry
