Wearing a sock is like wearing a mitten

For most of the past year and a half, I've worn shoes that slipped easily on and off. Casual shoes. Shoes that made me adopt the goal that I should buy shoes that wouldn't easily transition to the beach. And with these shoes, I've rarely worn socks. They would've looked goofy and they weren't needed and, for part of the time, my feet were too big to be kept company by socks inside the shoe. But now, the temperature has dropped and my feet have shrunk and I've busted out the closed shoes, and socks. The drawback of this is that I actually have to bend over to pick things up from the floor. I'm only now realizing how much I've come to rely on my toes to "hand" myself stuff.
