an ode to a sinking sock

oh where of where do my socks go?

round and round they swish and swirl

into the abyss they twist and twirl

oh my sock, my sock, where have you gone?

For it the light of the morning dawn

and I need you to put on...

The hose that is on the back of the dryer actually sucks them out like a vacuum. From there, birds (who after many years have figured it out) sit and wait for them to be ejected into the open air. They are snatched up and taken away where they become part of a nest.

They are zipped up or a drawstring type of bag.

Thanks for the tip! 
They don't sneak out of the bag then?

I put the good socks in a netted bag specially meant for washers. It saves the elastic and the pairs. Lol.

The Sock Elves!!!
They steal them and then hide behind the dryer and laugh at me when I can't find the mate to a pair!

This has been the question of the ages! Someday we know, but in the meantime, I am forced to live with socks of many colors that do not match!!!

Sunny, LOL to you, to Flower, to BC.....entertaining, very entertaining......I was going to posit some hypothesis about 'socks mating for life' like ducks and when one is killed by a hunter, then the survivor is doomed to this solitary existence....but, that was too sad, they're only socks anyway and it doesn't even make any sense. So, where do all the ballpoint pens go and why do I end up with everyone elses? Moon_Spirit

They fall into a black hole....

I told my ex this at breakfast on Saturday at IHOP. He said, "Where did our waitress go?"

I said, "She fell into a black hole."

He looked shocked, "Black whore? Where's a black whore?"
