Psst! Passion Crushing Socks!

Ok, I brought my girl her post alarm clock morning coffee today.

What can I say? I am a guy - it is included in my job description.

You know, I sort of hoped to find my lovely partner propped up in bed, bowled over with delight at the joint sight of me and the smell of coffee. Not quite – instead, I was greeted by this sight:


You know, this image did not quite match the one that went through my half asleep mind during the wait for the kettle to come to boil - I really was not thinking of this:

I've always, always been a socks-in-bed kinda girl. (From way before I ever knit my own.) Not negotiable - I get cold feet! Would you rather have my cold feet pressed against your leg, or re-adjust your notions of what is sexy?

Tell 'im, Gabrielle.

It was really all my fault. I turned down the heating a few days before these photo's were taken. G and I have talked about the whole 'socks in bed' thing. I am allowed input as to the choice of pattern for the next pair! Happy fella!
