   I have never understood the animosity toward socks with sandals. I hate having my feet confined, hence I wear sandals, but if it is much under 65 degrees r, I need socks with them. Btw, I am a 76 year old woman now, and NO ONE is going to tell me how I can dress!

   “b” was supposed to be “because”.

   This last December I realized that I have two pairs of identical sneakers, but different colors, so I wore one green and one red for the two weeks before Christmas. I got some complimentary comments, a couple maybe snarky about my being “brave” to do so, but mostly people looked at me like I had forgotten the proper way to dress. Maybe they saw signs of early dementia, because I am 75 with white hair and I use a cane, but I purposefully did it b I thought it was fun. People can be so stodgy.

   Knew an older man who, the weekend after his wife’s funeral, burned down their house trying to boil an egg. Fortunately, he survived, but I don’t think he ever attempted cooking again.

   Had a Siamese named Kabuki who liked to crunch down on the fleshy part of my aloe, then lick up the sap that oozed out. Supposedly, aloe is toxic to cats, but she lived to almost 19, and drank the aloe sap every few months or so. Have you ever accidentally tasted aloe in face cream? It is extremely bitter! I always wondered if it was different for her.

   The Mars factory in Las Vegas is pretty close to heaven, in my opinion.
