They Might As Well Be Dead ========================== It's been about 10 days since it started raining here. One night there was even a thunder-storm with lots of noisy thunders. Umbrellas are not always the best solution against getting wet; some coats and jackets provide you with a better protection. I like walking down the streets even in the winter with flip-flops to my feet and without socks. I was walking down the street yesterday or the day before yesterday when someone shouted at me out of nowhere: WHERE ARE YOUR SOCKS? This sucks. Just live and let live. I want to decide for myself if I want to wear socks or do not want it. I asked him what socks are, and when he showed me one that he wears I just decided to leave. Gosh darn it. I had enough of it when I was a minor and the only reason for me to not walk bare-footed on the cold floor was that my parents said so. Yesterday, it started raining while I was walking home without my jacket, and instead of running and hiding my he ad, I started singing the Beatles' song "Rain". The first verse started with: If the rain comes they run and hide their heads. They might as well be dead... Yeah, that what I think when people have problems with me not wearing socks.
