Happy Valentine's Day! I am wearing my very Valentine-y socks to give me strength, because I strongly suspect that we will be inundated by customers yearning for the Molten Chocolate Latte at work today. Everyone loves this drink.

Except for the people who think it's way too sweet, but what can I say, there's a philistine in every crowd. (We also had one person complain that the frappuccino version wasn't sweet enough. How sweet do you want it, dude?)

I am thinking about trying to find some springtime socks. I'm not sure if anyone sells specifically springtime socks, but I imagine that there are Easter socks that look springlike enough.

Socks are the best. I can imagine all sorts of nice springtime socks. You prompted me to do a sock search! I like this pair (http://sockdrawer.com/collections/springtime/products/chick-n-eggs-awesome-animal-socks-wheel-house?variant=6359988609) and this pair (http://sockdrawer.com/collections/springtime/products/veggie-fun-socks-foot-traffic?variant=6379259841) (alas, sold out at the site I found it at), though perhaps this (http://sockdrawer.com/collections/springtime/products/pansies-awesome-floral-socks-wheel-house?variant=6379327745) is the most springlike of the ones on offer.

Then again, maybe for spring what would be best would be a pair that's all openwork, as if made of lace (like this (https://img1.etsystatic.com/001/0/6563139/il_fullxfull.397184113_8zw4.jpg))

I'll probably end up buying something from Target, although those pansy socks are awfully cute. So are the openwork socks, but I think they might feel rather nubbly on my feet, and I'm not sure I would like that.

The BEST EVER maker of socks I have discovered lately is Blue Q (http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=w_bl_sl_s_ap_web_7141123011?ie=UTF8&node=7141123011&field-brandtextbin=Blue+Q).

They have multiple (http://www.amazon.com/Multicolored-Womens-Kick-sunshiney-Socks/dp/B00GAHVULU/) awesome (http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Runnin-World-Stuff-Womens/dp/B011A3RDAK/) designs (http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Womens-grass-Socks-womens/dp/B00GAHZ1W4/) that (http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Hellraiser-Grey-Yellow-Socks/dp/B00JRHIXEM/) would (http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Men-Ruin-Stuff-Socks/dp/B00HZ5HLVY/) suffice (http://www.amazon.com/Blue-Ankle-Socks-Damn-Pretty/dp/B00TVKEYNO/) as spring socks.

Ooooh. I do like the So Damn Pretty socks, and especially the Kick This Day in Its Sunshiny Ass socks. It's hard not to get behind that message.
