Socked In

Every new year I surround myself with a pile of all of our socks.  I have high hopes that all will have a matching pair.  By the end I have a significant pile of matching socks; and an equal amount of mismatched ones.  I hesitate to throw out the mismatched pile in the off-chance that the match will materialize.  A matching pair is rarely found.

Every year I intend to create a system to ensure all socks are matched at all times.  At the end of every year, I am left with massive pile of mismatched socks.

When will the madness end?
