<p style="text-align:center;">I went back into the apartment, searched the closets (where our shoes were placed in???), inside MY sneakers, nope, not there, then, I’d, back-tracked my steps from the bathrooms (that was where the laundry basket was before I took it into the back, and started the machines!), nope, it’s not, anywhere, how O-D-D!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/www.ilyke.net/uploads/2013/04/18/sub/26003-ilyke.net-large-26003-x7YYRfI.jpg" />this, isn&#8217;t what happened, by the way&#8230;but, let me go and check, just to make sure&#8230;&#8230;.nope!!!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I’d even, gone back into my own closets, because heck, who knows, maybe, I’d, left one sock there, but, it’s, too unlikely, and, I did, go for my exercise this afternoon, with BOTH my socks on, so, how come, there’s, just this one left???</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">And, I just, can’t stand it anymore! How the F*** (maxed out, remember???) CAN my SOCK (just one!!!) become M.I.A. (missing in ACTION???), I mean, I KNOW for a FACT, that I did, wear both socks, and take BOTH off, and threw them both, into the laundry basket, it’s just, that I don’t know WHERE that missing sock went! Perhaps, while I was running the rinse cycle, an ALIEN (those GREEN organisms with the LARGE eyes and teardrop shaped head??? The ones that the government keeps track of in <em>Area 51???)</em>, came, and, took it, as SOUVENIR for her/his VISIT to earth? But, why the HECK would any living things WANT my sock???</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img src="https://practicallyyoursdotorg.files.wordpress.com/2012/01/socks-lost-in-the-dryer.gif" />call this, the SOCK REBELLION if you will!  Not my comic!!!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">And no, I’m quite certain, that that missing sock, will turn up one day (someday in the FUTURE, I really don’t know when) eventually, it’s just, that I can’t find it now, or maybe, the ALIEN did, take IT as a SOUVENIR, is someone messing with me here??? You had better STOP it!!!</p>
